Going along nicely Joe. As Richard says, the groundwork looks excellent, and the thatch is good as well. I can see what Richard means here though, it just looks a little “new”. As to the kettenkrad (or kettle of lard as my spellchecker wanted to call it) the bling really is lifting it above the norm. Well used, PE can add a degree of finesse that plastic cannot match, and you are illustrating that here :thumb2:

Great work Joe.

Thanks everyone for following and comments, I took Richards advice and have toned down the thatch using some grey and brown washes and also did my best to create a drooping straw edge at the bottom. Thank you Richard for the great suggestions. have had some time recently to work on the kettenkrad..pics attached.. I took some liberties on the cross decal but added some really cool looking decals and license plate holders from a Passion models set of decals.. thumbs up to them for a great little package for this kit.

Thank you all for following and the compliments….I know,,,, I know it’s veryyyyyyy slooooooowww progress and I do apologize…work and chasing that little white ball around the grass has really been occupying my time.. however, I have found some time to give a big push on the landscaping and to begin to position some of the troops. Have a good evening all..and more troops coming soon.

Hey Joe.....that white ball thing....would that be what folks up here in Montana call "cow pasture pool"?? just curious The dio. is the bomb in color or black and white!! Lovely little details that make it "pop". Also, the "gardening" is just right for the camo these guys are sporting.......Tip 'O the Hat to you!:thumb2:
