OK I found the time to surf around "1/15 Scale Panzer Museum".
I believe it was worth mentionning this site, very impressive from a modelling point of view.
I don't particulary like the way the models are displayed, on Third Reich flags (some will say nazi flags) and surrounded by Third Reich artefacts and medals. That said that
doesn't overly bother me, but I understand some people may react differently, including in Germany (where I understand Svastikas are banned altogether) and Austria.
It also raises an interesting question, about how in our hobby we "distance ourselves" from some of the less savoury aspects of history. The dead, the numerous crews that
burned alive, the regimes behind the machines that we now build in model form and the evil things they did... At least this guy is coherent and it could be argued that he
somehow put things "in context" but on the other hand there are no photos of the carbonized corpses of a StuG crew on display.
