Dominik Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 Hi everybody, today i would like to show you another part of my collection. It is based on the Hasegawa Kit and on this built i tested weathering with salt before making the paintjob. The diorama is called "Horst - no dumping garbage" - whats the story behind? You see all the stuff on the load area? Horst (the Bullies Name) removed the fence with bolt cutters, sawed the sign with the chainsaw to - all to unlaod the debris. The Bolt cutter and chainsaw is scratchbuilt, also the bottle and heat on the frontseat. Have fun with the pictures Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chillyb1 Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 Welcome to the Model Cars Magazine forum! I love the diorama, and not just because there is a Volkswagen in it. Wonderful work with great details. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foxer Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 This has a wonderful overall unity in the weathering ... making it look just right! The bed has been really well used considering the side sills look in fairly good shape. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tony T Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 Nice work! I see the driver had a couple 'soda pops' along the way! Nice work on the weathering and the entire diorama! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eshaver Posted August 20, 2011 Share Posted August 20, 2011 I've wanted to do one of these for awhile . Sadly, Hasagawa kits aren't available through the lone hobby shop we still enjoy here and I don't like On- line stores . Great diorama work too !!!!!!

Chuck Most Posted August 20, 2011 Share Posted August 20, 2011 What could be better than a type 2 pickup? One that's been weathered, loaded down with cool accessories, and set in a cool diorama background! very nice indeed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danny Lectro Posted August 20, 2011 Share Posted August 20, 2011 Excellent work, Dominik. I think you have a great eye for detail. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dominik Posted August 27, 2011 Author Share Posted August 27, 2011 Thank you all for kind words! even a car tells a story, it will get a dio like this. This is my "addiction" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David G. Posted September 25, 2011 Share Posted September 25, 2011 You have a good eye for weathering and detail. The rust and dirt is well balanced and not overdone. David G. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CorvairJim Posted September 25, 2011 Share Posted September 25, 2011 Great build! I'd like to do something like this with a Corvair Rampside pickup if I could get my hands on a decent one. Too bad there was never a decent one made! Premier did a Rampside in about 1:30 scale back in the mid-60's, but it was one really rough puppy! Still, those kits are the "Holy Grail" of Corvair models. (I thought that the chain saws looked pretty good without paint. With paint it "STIHL" looks good! ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dominik Posted September 25, 2011 Author Share Posted September 25, 2011 Thanks guys! @ Jim: never heared about a Corvair Rampside (?!?) I had build one Corvair, the 2 door coupe. I will post him sometime. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
