1/35 VW Club Cruise (sort of)

[Evlwevl]

I used to run a local VW club and remember what it was like to be cruising with fellow VW enthusiasts to a location and I thought it would interesting to see what a scene from WWII would look like if various VW models regardless of paint scheme were caravaning through the forest.

Really neat idea and well executed.

Thanks guys,  It was surprisingly easy to create as I hadn’t built a scenery before since my elementary school days using cardboard and poster paint. I just purchased one of those kits  and watch their videos on how to use the product and the kit provides just barely enough supplies to finish what you see there minus the trees which I’ve purchased separately. After building this I realize a lot of materials  around the home can be  used to add to your diorama like dirt, sand and twigs from your backyard. When I finish this, I was in disbelief that looked somewhat believable.  I’m ready to create my next one . Adams foamboard from the dollar tree was used to cut my elevation and just simply glued with Elmers and then covered with sheet plaster paper. The rocks were poured into the Supplied molds and glued into place
