Looking forward to seeing all the great details you will be adding. thnx ! no i dont , i did see a docter he mesured my bloodpressure , they took some blood and now they got the results in , all was fine exept my vitemine B12 , that was low , so theyw ill run a second test to see if i need b12 injections .. but that does not explaain the low bloodpressure ..i googled it and its even healthy to have low blood pressure , thing is they cant raise it .. and people can have low pressure and experience dizzyness , throw up , even black out ...friday at home i went mad i could not focus on anything , the subtitles on tv moved vertical and horizontal like 2 cm .. i could not focus on one thing and even almost trew up ... bleehhh ... thing is i'm a truck driver and i didnt feel well enough to drive .bossman gave me other tasks wich still included operating a big rig ?? ooohhh ... but i hope it wont come back as bad as friday .. thats just like your soooo drunk .... funny if i would drink and go to work i would get fired .. but when i feel the same due to low blood pressure they see me fit to operate a truck ?? go figure Been watching this one for awhile, it's actually what got me to sign up as well lol that is a mighty looking fine barn.

Great work, as always! David G. thnx I always enjoy your work, and must admit some envy. I wish I had your eye for aging and weathering. thnx !! and well its really a case of just starting to weather stuff and try and its even so that if you screw up you put a nother layer on and a nother ... , my earlyer attemps where way less , its just as all the rest you have to start at some point and improve .. every new weahered build i think has something new and better then the last one ..and i love clean builds but the whole weathering thing is just so much fun to do .. its even not that i like weathered more then glos irl .. if i had to choose between a real weathered car or a perfect example , i would choose the perfect one .. but to build > man its fun to do .. and best advice > when you start to weather the first few layers , coats and what not you put on , dont look great its a case of building up the layers and keep adding effects andd just trying stuff after a while it starts to get better every thing you add ..lately when i'm all done i just brush some light brown almost yellow powder oer stuff that really make it more matt and give it like a filter and makes it look dusty and older Nice additions Richard!! I do like the tractor tire and signs.. Looking forward to what else you come up with... thnx ! i have a nother tractor tyre but that will be saved for a nother dio in the future , got these of a simple toy tractor i actually found .. and they are hollow inside and actually look great as for the rest i dont know either will be what comes to me by itself (idea) it def. needs way more .. i'm in doubt if i should do some roof beams like a point shape .. i tried holding some beams up but i think it takes away a lot of the vieuw ... if i did i could hang stuff from the rafters .. could be cool .. dont know yet Edited September 5, 2016 by crazyrichard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
