discussion Small off-road 'Run Down' truck depot yard Dio

[tiking]

I experimented with putting my very first 1 / 24 truck into a small diorama. I decided that I would take a few pictures on the outside to see how authentic I could get. To my surprise, it looked pretty close to the real thing ... or not ... Judge for yourself. I have some more stuff to add, and others to re-adjust, but I think it starting to take shape.

I am still adding and re-arranging some aspect of the dio. I still have left to modify the tires to look more used. The tires are place there to give me some sense of how they will look together with the scene.

WOW, that is stunning and very realistic looking, top marks...10/10

may I ask how do you do the mud spray/weathering please, I've tried myself using Dust Effects AK Interactive, but it just sploshes rather than a fine mist, I'm using the instructions off the product page...

Thanks guys. The spray mud/sand/grime was very simple. I used real sand and wet it with a pump water spray and flicked it on the container. That's it.
