    Holy Crap. Vinny... How did I miss this posting!!! Nice modeling! I prefer the WWII models, planes are nice (don't see any ME 109 or the uber-cool ME 262) but really LOVE German armor! Have you ever thought of assembling a diorama (German Panzer Grenadiers and a Panzer IV on a Belgium cobblestone street next to a blown out building and a knocked out M4 Sherman)

    Or a sandy Tunisan oasis with palm trees, German Pz. Kpfw. II, and a group of Luftwaffenjäger, or members of Fallschirmjäger Ramcke and some light armor/ halftrack!

    Had a few dioramas over the years but unfortunately dust is not good for plastic model kits as they break easily when cleaning them.If I atempt another I will surely use the base of an acrylic case so I can protect them.If I do one I will of course post some pics.;)There is actually an ME109 in the case (one of the few 1/48 scale kits that fit in these cases)next to a Sturmovic.Three cases up and second from the right.No ME262 but its on my list.;)Thanks for the kind words!!8)

    Thanks John!!8)

    Please send money to my Paypal account.LOL;D

    They just keep getting better ;) awesome work Vinny,but I gotta comment on how much I like that case for them,that is sweet! Do you know how many models over the years i've either tossed out or just gave to my son to play with/destroy :cheesy: due to dust build up.What a model saver!You got it goin on,you silly geek ;D
