Heres the 2 King Tigers I still have, one with Zimmerit, both porsche turrets with aluminum barrels. I may have posted these already, with other stuff in the pic. This should be better pics. One of these has the holes made in the rear so "hooks" can be re-added (the sides have to be sanded flat to do the zimmerit, and the cable hooks get lost when doing that.

All of your pieces are top-notch panzerpainter.
do you just post your work here?
Do you have a price list, website or online store where folks can browse through the items you have for sale? If you do, please email or pm the link to me.
Thanks

In reference to the above post and also your previous thread, I too would like to see all of your repaints in a browseable web page-type venue. E-bay, though it may yeild higher prices ultimately for the most sought after minis, is somewhat intimidating and time-intensive for many people. I have purchased many things over E-bay, but I usually find that I pay more than I intended and the bidding/watching process is stressful. So, as a general rule, I do not use E-bay much anymore. I have looked at your pieces, but I never seem to have time to check them on the final day of the auctions. I would be MUCH more likely to buy pieces that were a set price, and maybe without SO much customization that the price is driven up to $50. Your Panzer II is a great example. I would be willing to pay more for this piece than another Panzer II being sold as a single online. The difference, however, between a $6.00 Sig33 and a $45 one is significant.

Thanks for the compliments. Usually my pieces are made to order, and the scans I show are already sold. Most things I make for people are things like PzIIIs & PzIVs for $7, and Panthers, Tiger Is. etc for $20. I just had a complete set of Germans and decided to go all out on a few of them.
It is far easier for me when someone tells me what vehicles they consider, and then I send them scans of examples of that. But I do that all via e-mail. The best way to see specific examples is in my signature - where it says PM me your e-mail addy and I can send price lists and scans.
Some people like wardog, fj, (very good customers and all around nice guys) who have sent me orders that reached large proportions will get people will get things like sigs with crew for the same price as a sig without the crew as a "thank you". Thats something I leave to my discretion, and I do it gladly for those who took the leap of faith and sent me thier money.
The VAST majority of my work is more "normal" with no frills, just as nice a paint job as I can do, but no crew and such.
My collection of scans is HUGE, and I have over time posted most all of them somewhere in here. Many are collecting dust in the old modeling 101 thread. I hesitate to use a web page, since I have NO idea what the cost is, and Im a penny pincher. I have to be a penny pincher when I work for about $4 / hr. If I used any means of advertising that cost $, I would have to raise my prices, or drop my quality (which I can not do, I am a cronic perfectionist, to the point where I drive some people around me crazy over little details on things).
