Dead Forest Find

[tiking]

Working on this diorama has been a pleasure. Trying new weathering techniques have also yielded good results without spending am arm or a leg on many weathering solutions( although, they help beginners). Hope you all like the results of this build. The tyres will be weathered as well. I had not done it when I took these photos.

Amazing diorama build!!! You have totally made her very happy...

Wow, Charles, this is excellent. I find using non-commercial scratch work to be more satisfying and very useful, plus almost no cost. The trees are great, so are all the veggies; this looks like a real wreck. Awesome work, Buddy!

Excellent diorama!  The Land Rover in particular is extremely realistic. I once owned a red Series III and the doors were just like the ones on your model. 
Anyway, congratulations on a very interesting and well done diorama.

Cheers,
C.

Amazing…. Really great craftsmanship.
I watch a lot of Bearded Explorer on YouTube, and this looks like something he would come across.
