As usual stunning work on the base! Are those plants from Armor Farm? If so, I have few on my Xmas list...  |

Thank you all for the kind words and for following along on what was suppose to be a quick build and paint. I finally finished this one, not in time for the Nov. MoM but guess it will do for Dec. Was fun doing this little sucker. The grass, tree saplings and paper boxes are all products from ArmorFarm. I have to say that these few items really add a lot to the base and RSO. Some eye candy, and they look great too. Well here are a few pics of the finished RSO and base. I'll check for any areas that need touching up. I'll update my website with more pics when I get a chance.      Thanks for following along, now onto the shelf queens that need to get done. |

LOL thanks guys. I won't be catching up to Dicky anytime soon. Gonna try some pics with a dark back drop, the RSO color blends too much with the white.

Looks very fine ! I agree the little sapplings and cardboard boxe add to the feel . The bloody rag makes me want to see a figure or two though ....  ......just sayin . |

A hearty thanks to you all. Dan the bullet hole thing was covered in the earlier stages....I think. Recap....drilled small oles, used round fine dental burr thingie to form the indent and smooth with fine sandpaper....easy peasy.

A dark background is better to present the diorama indeed Rob. Anyway, the RSO diorama is beautiful and dramatic ! Congrats Rob it's a stunner, I look forward to more pics with a dark background.

Love the final touches you added Rob, base and everything tells a great story...has just the right haunting element to it with things like the bandage and the box. It looks like an AA platform that lost a battle with something...and this is all that's left in the aftermath.

Thanks guys. Bill it's all in the presentation eh. No need for a long story for this one, kind of obvious. Started back up on some queens but not much to show, mainly doing tracks.
