Well calling this one done,


was a fun build as its only ever the second half-track I,have done,


so much more needs to be done,


it was an easy build I found and a enjoyably one to that,


the base is just a field with a stone wall and some trees,


I,m real happy with my new static grass applicator,used 2mm and 6mm


grass,but one thing I did forget to do was push down the grass were it sits,


oh well always next time,


9th ss,panzer division setting up for an ambush potion


well do hope you like this one,


and comments most welcome,


and I keep the weathering down to more of a dusty look with wear around the


most used areas,

[monica]

ta Dougie so glad you like this one,much appreciated,


did do alot less with the harsh weathering as the unite is in Holland,so nice fields to drive on

 

[Guest]

Very nice all round Moni! The weathering is perfect, just enough & the crew add a sense of nervous expectation as they wait for the enemy

 

[Guest]

You has been very good, Greetings

 

[Guest]

Lovely work Monica.


The painting and weathering is excellent as is the setting.

 

[Guest]

Beautiful work Monica, love that 251, I had the same and converted mine into an ambulance. The diorama is simple but very effective and your figures are good too.

You've done it again Monica! Great little dio But where could you possibly be storing them all? you must have a great big barn or something?..........Jim

 

[monica]

very much appreciated Jim,so glad you like this one,


yes space is getting what .of a were to put,so I keep them small,that's on


a base of 170mm x 220mm so small,but still able to show what I wont,


and some of the older bigger ones have been binned and just keep the


figures and tank or what ever,
