(...) Hi Elroy, This is an excellent cannon. I love simple but effective designs and this one rates highly. Reminds me of some of JoJo's furniture designs. You can build them out of your pieces, but you'd never think of hem. Tim (18 years ago, 30-Sep-06, to lugnet.build.military, FTX)

Very nice! I don't think I would even attempt that colour scheme, and you pulled it off wonderfully! The model itself is also beautifully crafted. Keep up the good work. God Bless, Nathan Visit my brickshelf gallery: (URL) (pic=link) (18 years ago, 25-Sep-06, to lugnet.build.military, FTX)

Hi Magnus, I love how you manage to get ample space for your figs in these models. It's a really nice touch in such detailed models. They're all great models without it and it just adds that extra touch. I might steal your idea of using the new 4x4 (...) (18 years ago, 22-Sep-06, to lugnet.build.military)

Tim, I'm always happy to see other builders venturing into the military theme. Very nice work, indeed.

Very nice, Tim. The color scheme and the nice use of low slopes in the turret give it the perfect "future feel". The renderings are superb as well. The shading evoked an emotional "Anime!" response from me for some reason. ---Will (18 years ago, 21-Sep-06, to lugnet.build.military, FTX)

Hi all, Decided to have a play at tanks. It's far from perfect but I've learnt a lot (thanks Soren and Jas) so my next one should be better. Anyway, this is loosely based on a T-90 but I've tried to make it a little more futuristic so it's a T-104. (...) (18 years ago, 20-Sep-06, to lugnet.build.military, lugnet.announce.moc, FTX) !
