Had fun with these two, something different I guess. First attempt at figures and diorama type bases for a model. A combo of rattle can and craft acrylic paints. The bases use model railroad style diluted glue to fix plants and dirt, standard stuff but new to me. Some added touches needed, the kits are really basic old school tool.20200419_120919.thumb.jpg.8c167739269597b5e15be33b9c4f33bf.jpg

Got a good chuckle looking at these. Your details really bring them to "life". As Bob said that squished bee is superb. Great work.

Very cool! As stated in previous comments, your added details really add to the already excellent builds. I've found the Weirdo's series to be fun slump busters but require a bit extra to really make them look good compared to the Revell Roth monsters.

  For those interested, this book is a very enjoyable look into the art and creation of the Hawk kits. I don't remember what I paid through Amazon but it wasn't too bad, worth the money if you like these kits.

These are fantastic. You certainly have a flair for this type of kit. Both are some of the best representations of the kit I have ever seen.
