If it aint broke ,,fix it until it is .
Over kill is often very understated .
I know the voices in my head ain't real but they do come up with some great ideas.
Theres few of lifes problems that can't be solved with the proper application of a high explosive projectile .

I know it's been a while but the K-Wagen is almost done.
1320 rivets have been added and the painting is almost done,

Next step are the markings and the gun barrels.

Thanks for posing it near the A7V, I didn't realise how big it was, despite the 1,320 rivets  ;D
Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

HOW many rivets?????
Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)

So now, when people accuse me of being a rivet-counter, I can proudly answer: Yes, I am!

Tom I'm chuffed to see this monster nearing the end ..and we all know it's only that big because ya needed the room to put all those rivets  ;D
Without that many it'd been half the size  ;)

Awesome work mate 👏 🙌 😀

The K-Wagen is some beautiful scratchbuilding! I think rivet 693 is 0.3mm to close to rivet 692. You should fix that...

Awesome work.
How long did you have to lie in a darkened room, to recover? ;D

I do seem to have lost a number of hours. Now that could of course also have been caused by my whisky consumption.......

Consumption of copious amounts of whiskey followed by a good lie down sounds like a logical remedy for dealing with latent rivet-counter syndrome.   :thumbsup:  ;D
