discussion 1/35 Kettenkrad Cable

[aaron]

I know this is the wrong place for this thread but i really dont know where to post this...sorry.

I'd like to share this build of dragons kettenkrad, The indy links were a nightmare and terribly small and there were a few fit issues but i really enjoyed the build,not my best work but fun none the less.



















Thanks to those of you who had a look.

That's a quality build and your figures are excellent!

That's brilliant. The photos belie how small that kit really is, there's just so much detail in the model and painting.

[PaulTRose]

that is some very nice work!

 

[aaron]

Thanks for the positives everybody,

Monica, the chipping is one of my favorite parts and i tend to go a little overboard. It's simply a lighter shade of the base colour or white done with a small brush or sponge then blackbrown painted within the lighter shade. Really easy and fun.

 

[Ian M]

That is a really neat build. Even though only a small base there is pleanty going on.

Well built and painted. Nice one.

I have moved this to the soft skins section. it was 50/50 between that or diorama. Heads won.

[Guest]

what have you used for that wall? can you tell me? you build it? or it is a kit?

 

[ojays]

Love it, great build and very authentic weathering. Especially considering the miniscule size.

[Guest]

I really like this one. It looks natural and the figures are very good.

BTW, what is a soft skin?

 

[Guest]

if this isnt your best work then there is really no hope for me at all,if i made it look like that then i would be shouting it from the roof tops ` LOOK WHAT I DID` lol,

 

[PaulTRose]

BTW, what is a soft skin?

something that isnt armoured,..............as in a tank has a lot of armour thats hard and resiliant but a truck dosnt, so it has a soft skin

 

[monica]

thank you Aaron, you have made some think that looks hard to do so easy and looks real good ,

 

[aaron]

Cheers peoples,

Thanks for moving this thread Ian, i knew you would sort it

what have you used for that wall? can you tell me? you build it? or it is a kit?

Catalin, the wall is made from a thin layer of multi purpose filler (used for repairing holes in walls) spread out on a lid and left to dry then broken up into small pieces and layered. Kind of tedious but i like tedious...its relaxing.Thanks again for the feedback.
