Coming together very nicely John. Figures looking great - you've had a fair bit of practice of the years :thumb2:

Redid the base, applied some Eastern dark mud that was found in many parts of Russia. I'll put some garden soil on top of this later.
Also fitted the tracks, Mike @Scratchbuilder very kindly built a set of tracks, they were just too small for my good eye.
Had to remove the teeth from the tracks to get them to fit around the drive sprocket as expected. 2022_4.jpg
Pleased its got this far :smiling3:

I'm loving how this is going John.
Thanks Andy.
Groundwork looking spectacular
Cheers Joe.
Already the ground is looking superb. Mud certainly looks muddy :thumb2:
Thanks Jim, that AK mud is certainly muddy looking stuff.
I think John is modelling it to resemble my garden at this moment in time!!!!!
Doug I think most are like this.;)
Don’t know about your garden at the moment, but it looks like most of Somerset most of the time……great stuff!
Thanks Tim.
John,
Looking most bodacious me old mate.
Cheers younger mate.;)

Sprayed the upper half this afternoon and did a little to the base, I'll need to lighten some of the earth about the water and tone done some of the grasses. Also the add some loose static grass with the dreaded electric thingy thing !

Next need to spray some shadows and following that a few high lights.Been very please with the stippling of the cast. Those tracks will be cleaned up and the lower hull improved.
Thanks for the continued support.

Wow, I keep looking at that and the detail is so good, what an excellent job you're doing!
 
That groundwork is looking better and better. That cast texture really shows well under your neat paint job.
