Coming along well Peter.


Using a nice sharp blade cut around the prone figures and when you place them in the dio build up dirt/sand around them to make them look as if they are lying in it.


Hope this helps.


Someone will come up with something better..probably.

Thanks Ralph....... I did figure the sharp blade route was how I was going to have to attack these.

Nice work Peter and I'd go with Ralph's idea with the figures

A bit more on this............. Nearly done. Some rust streaks and a bit of dry brushing. It'' get a bit more wear and tear when the base is finished (I've made a start on that) so I know hat colour dirt and dust we are looking at............

Eric obviously approved Peter. So do I, that is looking A1.

Nice work there Peter I like the tracks with the dirt in the crevices. Love the overall paintwork too. Lumbering along in the dessert sun. Can't wait to see this finished and in the dio to see what you come up with. Didn't see from the pics but have you bleached the panels( lying in the sun) but that's a personnel opinion


Cracking work as ever

Well this little fella (and is is little) is all in one piece. ........... I enjoyed putting this together. Masterbox have done a fine job on this. Lost of detail and the kit goes together superbly. The hardest part was cleaning up the two girders on the top. The only bit I screwed up on was the three vent covers on top, they were so fine that I busted two of 'em getting them off the sprue. So I made up three from an odd piece odd photo etch I had in the spares box............ tomorrow he'll see some paint .......... and then I'll make a start on the Tommies.................
.................. and Eric likes to watch while I'm modelling.
