The detail, workmanship, and sheer quality of this little masterpiece is almost beyond words, especially for a subject in 1/72nd.
Absolutely outstanding and a pleasure to view. Congratulations on a truly great build and magnificent model!

Congratulations Stefano!
The meaning of art of scratch building is that. I would like to have one of it! Because is the museum level. And I have Two WWI at my own too in 1/72. Congratulations again!!
