Hello Martin,

This is an extremely well done scratch build in 1/48. As I said during your build I like the colors and the lozenge. Your display is very nice too. Congratulations!

Kind regards
Patrick

Excellent modelling - a very fine conversion and in 1/48 scale too. I especially like the background setting which forms a fitting setting for an interesting subject. You are a talented modeller - many congratulations.
