  1. Thats looking great! One of those details that most people won't notice, but really lifts the whole thing.
  2. The germans really had all kinds of weird color combos and patterns on their camos if ya look into it, thought i'd post this one cos it looks similar to the one i usually do: But nothing beats the British blue-tan camo! thats just awesome!
  3. O.O you dont have much self-control, do ya? Boxstock-curbside... mppfffh... Great work so far, clean cuts, and nice work on snugging the gaps!
  4. Looking good! Ill be following this one, got any 1:1 pics?
  5. Actually this is an actual camo from the ocupying german forces in France, most German camos had a desert-yellow base, combined with a brown and one or two greens, sometimes a red-brown thrown in there as well, and when the winter came they would repaint the whole thing using a waterbased white color that washed right off in water. One thing tho, i rushed it a bit to get to the weathering, wich i really regreat, because there really should have been atleast twice as many stripes on there.... As for the uhhmm..., slightly gored appearance, i figured it would be fair for a piece of shrapnel in the neck of a disoriented crewman trying to escape from the turret, he will even be there lying on the front of the hull, just as soon as i get the figure moidified for it. + ive shot a full layer of grease, filth, mud and soot on there, and with him lying in the puddle, there wont be as much of it visible. Edit: Hoping to have some update pics tomorrow! Thx for replying and looking!
  6. AWESOME!
  7. Oh, look at all theese amazing builds!! I guess i can put my own humble contribution to it as well, even if its not finnished, i like the pics of my little forestjumper: Wish i would have had the engine in when i shot it tho...
  8. MMMMm.... that tasted like OldschooL, my compliments to the chef!
  9. Simple, find or take a single photo of any build of yours, and post it! I'd post first, but it seemed kinda rude seing that i started the topic..
  10. Same here, but now i went back to wwII models, and will probably be back on cars in a few weeks
  11. That is awesome!! keep up the work!
  12. Hey guys, uhm, well it is not a car, but it's the only thing ive been tinkering with lately, (+ a few others in the same genre) and i thought it might catch the interest of someone, basically if anyone feels that i shouldnt keep posting updates, just say so, but please tell me if ya think i should keep posting too, because if i dont get any replies i will take it as a lack of interest and not post updates for that reason. Left to do is: Further detailing Finnish up the two figures A few more shots of red A few more shots of "mud" Some wear and tear as in: Bleached paint Scratches Rust Ok, up to pics! Oh, i don't know, but maybe a warning to sensitive viewers is in order?? I shot theese indoors, so the colors are a little bit off.. First shot of red: Second shot of red: (so far ive done three shots with various mixtures of red and thinner) The turret: The rear: And some of the details to come:
  13. 23's GASP!! T's, pheeww, its oldschool in any size! The bodywork looks great, really smooth and nice!
  14. Ok, i dont know how difficult this one really is, but its nice enough to show!
  15. This is awesome top-to-bottom, from the craftmansship of the build to the coloring! I love that interior! What stance are ya going for?
  16. That bus is looking real sweet there!
  17. Waiting for updates!
  18. American cars just aint what they used to be...
  19. I say go for it! I'm a pretty new soul in this world, and a few years back i came to the point when it was time to choose what carreer i was gonna go for in life, i have and had allways dreamed of becoming a bodyworksman and work with hotrods and stuff of the sorts, but i let people piss on my dream, (mostly my parents) and so i didnt go for it, wasting my chance by not learning stuff and picking up education in the area. This is one of my biggest regrets so far in life, because in spite of what everybody (mostly my parents) said, my dream did not die, and i have realized that it was not a stupid idea, and i actually would still want to be a proffessional sheetmetal worker. But as it looks now it is most likely i will be a truckdriver instead, and it feels like ######, not to be a trucker, the proffesion actually appeals to me, but that i will be so just because "they" said so and i let them get to me. Most people dont understand the phenomena of dreaming, or doing what you want with your life, they just kinda "do what they are supposed to", check in, work, check out, eat, sleep, retire, die. Figures why so many on their dying beds feel that theres been something missing... I can tell you are not one of them, and one day when death lies before you, you will be able to say: "well, i did the best of it" with a smile. If its not a bold statement. Just go for it.
  20. AW WHAT THA HELL! Didnt even take you a full hour! BTW, it might as well be a -61, its really the same car. This one??
  21. Ok, you got it, get a whole jar full of cookies, you earned it! But how about this one?
  22. LOL, you only downloaded the image and read the name of the file! Not the name of the car tho.
  23. Ok folks, how about this stupid little thing?
