Carl,

The Tiger II Tank is AMAZING.  What do you use for reference material?  The detail
on the interior is stunning, especially if it is all accurate!  The WWII Street
Scene looks perfect too.  I'm going to be hosting a NELUG Brikwars event in March,
and my contributions look to be strongly weighted in WWII period items.  They may
get mulched by flying mechs and such, but they'll look cool  ;)  The Tiger Tank
would look stunning too.  Any chance there will be some LDRAW files in the future?
I know it's intimidating, but I found it pretty straightforward when I picked it up
to LDRAW my AT-ST.

By the way, are the howitzer and heavy troop-portable machine-guns accurate too (as
much as can be expected at that scale?)   That is, do they represent real guns?  My
howitzer is pretty much a custom job, though it does look period authentic.  Even
though it's in black :D

Anyways, I can't say enough.  The Tiger II is unbelievable ... I am throughly
shell-shocked by it *grin*

Shaun, yes, they are as accurate as possible. The cannon is modeled on a German ww2 50mm PAK anti-tank gun and does actually have working suspension for recoil and ejects the empty shells out of the breech :)....the machine guns are just as close as (...)
