Andy's Tamiya 1/48 Sd.Kfz.232 (Ron's recon. G.B.)

Nice work. Beautifully executed model & very good work on the base. The hardest part of dios IMHO is marrying the model(s) with the base. This area is where things most often go awry. Period photos help a lot, as their study will assist you with the integration of crapintheback, model weathering, base gardening & structures. I find that I scrimp on structure rubble and garden a little too neatly. After 60+ years of modeling I'm still learning. I'm a bit slow I guess. PaulE

Thanks Paul.

I hope I never stop learning too. I know I've said it before but there's such a wealth of experience here that I'm definitely in the right place for it.

I hope I never stop learning too.

If you ever come across a model maker who thinks he knows it all, avoid him, there is no such animal.
We will all carry on learning until our toes point upwards!

This is just great Andy. One cracking little diorama.
Bring on the next.... :thumb2:

What's not to like about it, nothing ! Like the way you have done the outline of the base Andy, certainly adds to the look.
Very pleasing to have such comments as well .
