Hi folks, I've been trying my hand at modifying figures, the kit came with tank crew and loading crew so I have tried to modify the summer uniform ny adding some clay to make winter jackets. Any advice here would be great.

Looking good Scott.


What did you use for the tarp's?

 

[Guest]

Tissues and watered down gorilla glue.

I thought it was Filo pastry, the stuff they use to make spring rolls .......... Sorry.


I read somewhere, not sure if it was on here, that baby wipes or makeup wipes are good for this as they have a fine 'cloth' texture.


They look really good Scott, this is a great example of how you can't take a relatively 'simple' Tamiya kit and raise the bar well above average.

The groundwork is great Scott.


The way the snow and mud blends together is fantastic.

 

[Guest]

This is just the clay, the snow hadn't been laid yet although will probably just attach the snow direct to the white clay.
