Thank you. It was quite a good kit, or I should say kits but I've added a lot of things like:
- ropes on winch;
- wires for winch,
- plumbing for fuel tank;
- plumbing for air tanks;
- wires for support engines;
- chains for supports;
- chains for wood chokes;
- wires for lamps on tractor;
- antenas for tractor and launcher mast;
- canvas for air vent on launcher modules;
- a lot of wires for launcher and modules on the trailer;
- power cords for radar
and many more.

Absolutely stunning👍👍👍, looking at yours makes me want to dive straight back into mine. I hope you don't mine, but I will be using your build photos as reference for mine. So inspiring...

Beautiful build! I really love the complexity of the vehicles and everything around it.

Great base, Great camo, Great weathering. Very impressive eye catcher, no doubts. Congratulations Przemek 👍
P.S. I see you don't like figurines...?

Its such a great build. Painting is perfect, weathering is so nicely done - I love it.
The only thing I'd like to mention (as someone who knows the Patriot-system quite good) is the fact, that the rockets would never be raised without the supports beeing lowered.😉

Thank you all.
Markus - base is 80cm wide and 30cm deep. I've tried 60cm x 30cm but it was to small. This is however is a compromise between size and weight (it's a natural wood) against the model setup and overall look.
Anyway it's the biggest base I did so far, and it is Ok while standing still, but I went once for a model show and it was a challenge to move it from car to table (around 150m). 😉
