I cant believe it's only $10 USD, what Frap hasnt done is posted images of the finished model in this thread so i've taken the liberty of doing it for him.
I'm related to Frap so it's unfair for me to pass off a positive comment without declaring my bias, but I will say i've paid a lot more for models that are far inferior back when I was making games in DBP, and several years of inflation have ocurred since then.
This model is gorgeous and goes well with his other tank and WW2 airplanes, and if you ever browse through 3D model sites you'll see it's also cheap, as he says he just gets a beer from it.
If you want it cheaper, perhaps it's time that TGC took a look through his collection and considered mixing it with some other models to make a new DarkMATTER?
