Hi there Tiking,
Love this little scene you have here! It breaths just the right atmosphere. I feel like I'm in the Middle East and action could start any second...
I'm staying tuned to watch the end...
greetings, Richard. |

Thanks guys. Hope to have finished this a long time ago but family duties always seem to take for-front every time.

Fantastic work on the dish! What channels are you getting now with it? Nice work on the figures too!
I like the barriers... won't hurt to throw in few drums too.

Looking really good so far. You diorama guys really impress me. I've had a scene in my head involving a King Tiger in the Ardennes I've wanted to do for years...I just do not have the commitment to stick with a project like that to completion. I can barely finish kits.

Appreciate the love fellas. Thanks a million. My figure painting is not my strongest side soprogression has been slow. Especially when your kids always need your out most attention.

What a fantastic dio, Tiking. I prefer the option in which the pickup has crashed against a concrete barrier, looks better in my eyes.

Well, after buying some isop-alcohol, and soaking the figures in them to remove the paint, I finally took them out after 8 hours and the results were not that good. The paint seem to come off easily but so did the plastic. Or that's the way it looked from my point of view. I just thought the surface was rough and uneven. Regardless, I threw away two of the usmc figures.  So typical. And these were the two main figures I wanted to use in this scene. So that means I will have to build the other two remaining ones and luckily I had one resin figure from Blast Model that I will add to the present ones. Oh well. Next time I will not leave them in for so long. I am going to start on the figures this weekend. So my apologies for not having any pics to show of the usmc figures. Hopefully next update. But here are some over all pics of the entire diorama, which I took outside. I painted the concrete barriers black/yellow strips and added drums to the mix to make the scene more interesting. Still going to weather the building some more and the surroundings.   |
