Morning Scottie,
Playing catch up...again! I’ve missed loads of updates, including this. The 222 looks excellent on its base in its DAK guise mate, superb work!

I cant believe I missed the final reveal!.:astonished: Another Scottie classic. You got a fantastic final look. I like the cracking on the base as well. Very realistic. Another one to be proud of mate:thumb2:

Scottie mate, that’s simply stunning. Love the worn paint but even that is eclipsed by the cracked mud. Looks real to be honest.
Cheers

Hi Daniel,
Thanks mate, as to the tracks the only way I can think of is scraping the tread in with the tip of a knife or a very thin layer of plaster or clay over what you have already then do the track marks. Hopefully someone else will have a better idea.

Hi Peter,

I have to admit it is out of a jar all my own homemade attempts have not been to my satisfaction. It is cracked earth from AK it comes in a couple of colours.
