        Outstanding finish! This is another kit I have in the stash and if it turns out like this I will be very happy.

        All the best

            How about putting it on a concrete stand with a single armourer next to it? Very simple but a human element would give it another dimension. The concrete base needs nothing more than a joint between two concrete slabs and a tuft of grass so very simple but would really enhance the model.
            I will experiment of course, but what would you recommend for concrete in 1/72? Plaster perhaps, finished to scale-sized roughness?

            I have read that "wet and dry" at the correct grit size can look like tarmac.

            Really nice work Vaughan.

              Great build you've done a fantastic job on the engine and at £15.99 that's a bargain I might keep an eye out for one of these

                  I have used plaster for concrete and used wet and dry for racing track to display bikes on in the past. I would use a thin layer of plaster and scribe a line across it before it sets to create a joint. This will then take a wash nicely and make a realistic joint.

                          I have some 1x1 square dense foam squares I got form a craft shop, they are ideal as concrete slabs in 1/72, easy to cut, then you just prime and paint.
