This has been on the back burner for months ,but it got a new lease of life yesterday when I had some filter play. Just luck I caught the effect I wanted while trying to modulate the green I got a colour that reflected the sort of dust worn vehicle that would be in a urban area. . DSC08173 by macmcconnell, on Flickr. . DSC08177 by macmcconnell, on Flickr. . DSC08180 by macmcconnell, on Flickr. . DSC08166 by macmcconnell, on Flickr. . DSC08167 by macmcconnell, on Flickr. . DSC08169 by macmcconnell, on Flickr. Not sure what will happen to this I did have a Diorama for it but might do it as a stand alone. I had got to a point were I was struggling to finish this so I left it for a while. next on this I have some war booty to add on the decks and stores

Definitely a lovely build there Mac!! You could go either way with it...stand alone certainly shows off all the work you have into it! DIo would enhance the overall appearance of the theme...tough call!! Well done so far!!

Agree with T, this one could stand all by itself very easily. Nice work on her Mac, love the weathering effects.

Need to build 80 kits per year until I'm 100 to deplete my stash. Maybe I should sell a couple.

Gents I am sorry if at times I fall a little behind with responses ,but I am grateful just so much on these days here a pic of the operator and a commander figure i might use. . DSC08256 by macmcconnell, on Flickr. ,. DSC08258 by macmcconnell, on Flickr. I am learning with water colours I can see the advantages so I am changing tact from oils still difficult after years of oils,but I am always up for change for the better. Mac
