POTW for May 30, 2010

[dansls1]

This week we have another design and build thread - a very interesting Japanese tank. Interestingly enough I had a suggestion for this earlier in the week, then when I was going through threads yesterday I picked a picture out thinking I might make it POTW, not realizing it was the same thread. Full thread is here (http://www.papermodelers.com/forum/armory/7020-japanese-tank-type-2-ka-mi-1-25-a.html).

Wonderful. My compliments indeed to the builder. I don't know how you chose a model as there are so many wonderful builds it must indeed be a heck of a task. Either way, these POTW give us all inspiration to better our skills to try and be as good as the masters.

Cheers

The POTW looks like it's from a plastic kit... I really can't believe it's made out of paper... all the curves are really smooth, it's really amazing. :)

And those tracks... OMG!! truly excellent work!

[Thomas Meek]

A very good choice.
That is a great model and what looks like a flawless build. I have long had an affection for amphibians, and this is one of the best I have seen. Congratulations, mrafalsk!

A high-level model, a lot of details.
Extraordinary position of the tracks on the support rollers.
It seems they have the weight of the metal.
Congratulations.
