What's wrong with the Tamiya one's? Why not do something that has not been done yet?

This sounds really ridiculous when you consider the amount of Shermans, Tigers (l's and ll's) Panthers, etc., etc. Anyway, these look a LOT better than Tamiya's (as usual). They've also been done in resin, and PE, but the PE ones look too thin.

Bill ... "Rommel's asparagus" were wooden poles connected with wires. Wikipedia to the rescue: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rommel%27s_asparagus

Hurray for MiniArt! Now I no longer have to either scratch-build or use forty year old pieces.

Why were they painted with stripes? For visibility?
