  1. Thanks a lot. Glad you like the results.
  2. Thanks buddy. I appreciate your honest support.
  3. Thank you. Glad to know that youve notice improvement in my figure painting. Makes me happy. Figures have never been my strongest attribute. Bold statement my friend. I would like to think so, but there are always those that a better.
  4. Thank you Slusher Glad you liked it. Thanks.
  5. I understand what you are thinking. But consider this. The heavy vehicle damaged may not have happened at that very spot. They could have bulldozed a heep av these vehicles in order to create a barricade
  6. Thanks. Mych appreciated. Kind regards David. Glad you appreciate the end results.
  7. Still have to adjust a couple of things, but I feel my figure painting is coming to a point, that I I am becoming satisfied with the results so far. Just have to keep at it. I think, I may still need to do another wash. The green is not exactly the green for this type of camo but that is what I had on hand. I am going to get the right color for this camo pattern, soon. Unfortunately my photography skills still need lots of improvement. Oh well. If you have noticed, I used the vehicles from my previous diorama in this vignette. The previous diorama does not exist any more. Thanks for looking.

    Vespa

    This is a low budget die-cast production vespa. I have forgotten the scale of this but I am guessing a little over 1/20 scale. I screwed off the Vespa in 3-4 parts, so it would be easier to paint, weather and gain access to certain areas. The speedometer was a just a stick-on. So I made a glass, with cracks in it and glued it in place. This made a huge difference, lifting the model to a degree. I left the tyres and rims relatively clean, to show that it was newly bought as the first stage of a renovation project.
  13. I did some changes to the original car that I made sometime ago. I wanted a little more aggressive look and thus came up with this design. I used quite a few everyday items and parts from my 'Misc. box of tricks'. Original kit: Efter ombyggnationen:
  14. Kind regards Shambles. Glad you liked the results.
  15. Thank you. Glad you approve..
  16. Hi David. Thank you kindly. Yes. The MAN truck is mine as well. Glad you liked it.
  17. HaHa! thanks. Strange places eh? Care to elaborate? Appreciate your confidence in me. Thank you kindly. Much appreciated. Hi David. Yep! Pajero is correct. I guess, they did not have the right to use the name on the box kit. Thanks. Glad you approve.
  18. My thanks. Glad you approve.
  19. Thank you.
  20. Well, that's another story altogether.
  21. I have been trying out different techniques and diorama design styles for some time now. Been working out on the ‘Damaged scattered’ look, and car damaged look. Haven’t been able to decide on a possible diorama look but been working on variations(at least two). Figures will also be added later. Still needs a little bit more work. Who knows, I may just as well take another approach, as I almost do in my builds. We shall see.
  22. Thanks.
  23. I hear you. That's why I wanted to do something different. More rugged and BAD*SS! Thank you.
