    1/35 MARDER KNOCKED OUT MONUMENT.

    While I was working on the commission build and then faffing with the little sub wreck I have been working on this.

    Lost the tracks but all there so, I decided to do it as a monument/prize that has been left to slowly rot away.

    The odd coating of grey and black paint with crude camo added-I wanted that roughness in look that you see on these kind of things, also added some graffiti and of course, lots of rust.

    I will get around to making a plinth for it that will be grassed etc.

    Great idea Si, from what I can see it looks good but the pics are dark any chance you can get some lighter pics mate?

        Maybe they were dark because I was sat outside... they look better now I'm sat indoors, maybe lighten up the interior pics?!

          Nice work Si. Once you have it on a base with tufts of grass etc it’ll look even better:thumb2:

            The interior is just black spray with some rust, not much to see. I have seen some pics that showed the interior of similar vehicles just plastered in black paint.
            Glad that they look better piccies.

            Ta Si, hopefully just the simple thing of a base will tie in the piece.
