discussion Completed Pink Panther's Safari (Ian's Tiger Meet SIG)

[Guest]

Hi friends.

Here is the finished model for the Ian's Tiger Meet SIG.

I really enjoy with this model.

It's a Land Rover from the Hobby Boss (1/35 scale).

Just a few changes and some little parts of scratch build.

The weathering: Chipping effect on the chassis, an oil wash and a subtle dust effect.

I'm happy....with that one I break the curse ever follow me on the SIGs or GBs (have always problems... ), and I have a new Land Rover for my collection

Just hope all you liked!!!

Thanks for looking.

Fantastic Polux, very nice diorama.

The paintwork on the landy is very well done and looks perfect in those colours

What grass did you use?.. its very realistic ...

Thanks Colin!!

I use the habitual grass from the train (HO) complements.

But always think is so shining, then I sprayed coats of light green (acrylics) with a finally matt varnish coat.

Thanks again

Top work as usual, Polux.

Very neat build and a good bit of originality for the 'Tiger Meet' sig.
