    They look like the real things right down to the exposed metal where the paint has worn off from constant usage. SWEET!

    Thanks. Glad you approved. :)

    Details for a Massey Furgensson. It's the little details... Weathering done using Citadel earth brown, sponge technique, dust effect by MIG & brown akrylic wash/black oil pin wash. The scale is 1:24.

    Don't know why I missed this one, Charles - outstanding weathering again which is your trademark anyway.

    What impresses me most here is the crumpled and smashed glass of the rear door, almost falling out of its frame - how did you replicate that?

    A big thank you. Glad you liked the results. The crumbled glass effect was easy. The trick is to use Protective glass, used for mobil phones. Its the perfect material to use to get the effect. It's tampered, so it holds its shape. Hope this helps.

    I Forgot..what scale is this scene?A couple of the things that pop out,with the exception of the truck,of course,are that white plastic chair,and the shopping cart?They look so real,and dirty,kind of like the ones i had as kitchen chairs when i moved into my first apartment.🤣🤷‍♂️I mean they were clean.Anyway,i don’t know if you said,but where did you find that chair,and the shopping cart,if you don’t mind me asking?

    Thanks.

    Apology for the late reply. The chair I got from Mathos models. Type the name in Google. The shopping cart is from Royal Model: https://www.royalmodel.eu/en/accessories-for-dioramas/563-shopping-cart-135.html

    Backup that truck...Slowly!!!

    Without a doubt, some of the best texture development and weathering work, ever, anywhere.

    I've been looking at truly exceptional model RR work for decades, and none of it syrpasses yours.

    There's a tremendous amount to be learned just from looking at your results, so thanks for continuing to post.  :D

    Very powerful words of upliftment. I am honored that you think that way. Thank you very much. :)

    Very nice diorama.    I like the way that a slice of tree truck was utilised for the base.

    This can really be described as 'weathering' as most modellers refer to wear and tear as weathering.

    Thanks. Much appreciated.

    Yes, that and the oil and grease mixture.  I have no clue so was just asking.

    On this particular piece, I used Mig's grease & oil solution. It's a solution that MIG has that you can purchase for models. I used the vaseline to give it the little extra thickness.
