Description
Here's a view of where I'm at so far. I've run into difficulty with the model. Therefore I did some research and found that according to "The Encyclopedia of Military Modelling" (yes, it is an actual book and must-have for anyone serious about modelling), the model I'm making is actually considered a "composite". Earlier I dicussed the difference between "kitbashing" and scratch-building". What I failed to realize and mention is that a model that has elements of both methods is called a "composite model". Therefore, my Shadowsword Project is actually a composite model. Additionally, "kit-bashed" is another term for "conversion". From what I can tell, both phrases mean the same thing and are equally acceptable for everyday use in the modelling community. Modelling competitions are another story...

Ahhhhh yes, modelling competitions, I remember them quite well ^_^
looking really good brother
Love the tank. This would look amazing scaled up to 1/35 - even bigger than the German Maus! Gave up 1/35 modelling a few years ago to concentrate on CGI and 12" action figures.
