[@lesthiele4921]

Thst buildbturned out absolutely outstanding, I thoughtbthe weather was perfect, just dusty enough, congratulations on a job very well done, best regards from a Kiwi living in Australia

[@ModelNerd]

Thank you mate - glad you liked it!

[@woodchild2093]

Best thing I like about the fist of war kits I have is all the spares for kit bash projects later

[@ModelNerd]

Yeah, they do give you a lot of extra plastic

[@robbo1068]

Sometimes it's better to say its finished rather than continuing and being disappointed with the result. IMO you've done a beaut job overall, especially the camo.

[@ModelNerd]

Thanks Robbo :)

[@Sniper_Cat_71]

I think you are being too hard on yourself, it turned out great! They don't always turn out like we envision, but it looks awesome.

[@ModelNerd]

Thanks - much appreciated!

[@zulerodoeht329]

Nice work, I have a love / hate affair with link and length tracks. Great paint job.

[@ModelNerd]

Thanks. Me too - I don't really mind rubber band tracks to be honest!

[@zulerodoeht329]

I too like rubber band tracks, but I have discovered by trial and lots of error, that workable tracks and workable suspension allows me the most versatility, once they are in place and most of the painting done, I glue the suspension to a static position. @@ModelNerd

nice work on the paper tank keep them coming

[@ModelNerd]

Thanks mate

[@calumclark1719]

[@ModelNerd]

Thank you Steve

[@ljscalemodels526]

good effort Stu, thanks for sharing cheers Liam

[@ModelNerd]

Thanks Liam mate

[@allanrichards3752]

Its a good looking model and I like the paint scheme. Looks like the left track gave you a few problems. I can't say I am a fan of link and length track. I tend to seek out models with "working track" Its more work to assemble but I think it is easier in the painting stage where the tracks can easily be removed.

[@ModelNerd]

Thanks. Yes I agreed - link and length tracks are a real pain.

[@BrushQuill]

Looks brilliant mate. Your comment on random. Its an oddity of humans, we can't handle true randomness. We always somehow end up in a pattern.

[@ModelNerd]

Thank you mate. Yes, you're right!

[@BrushQuill]

@@ModelNerd also I wonder if anyone does card kits of these... paper paper panzers...

[@johntreloar8203]

I don't know about the E 60 Stu?, it looks all out of proportion, I've built the E 75 and a few E100's, they look fairly realistic, even though they are also paper panzers, I thinks the Fist of war range are basically gaming tanks? but having said that you still did a good job of it.

[@ModelNerd]

Thanks. Yes, they are sort of "paper paper panzers" for sure. Conpletely fictious.

[@der_fuxs]

E-100 hull was partially built and captured in 45. E-75 essentially was an upscaled Tiger B. The FoW kits are just creative ideas and have nothing to with anything that was sketched on blueprints or even built as a prototype.

[@KGmodels]

Looks great Stu!Looks amazing,and I love the geometrii shapes,and also I just finished painting a Sturmtiger,using your video for help so Thanks! I also have a question,would a What if e100 stuck in ice diorama be a good idea?

[@ModelNerd]

Thanks mate. I do like the look of the E-100. Kits seems a bit pricey, but it's on my "keep an eye out for" list.

[@rickmoreno6858]

Uncle Mosel merd, just relax, you're Over Thinking it! Looks great. Just keep going otherwise she'll be on the shelf of doom for months/years

[@ModelNerd]

Haha, thanks. I'm happy to call this "finished' but with the option to play more with it later :)
