                        Thanks Bob - of course... GB will end in spring, so theres a bit time left for details. Next steps will be putting on "Erdal Glänzer" - its aquite similar product like Pledge/Future and better available here in Germany. Then the decals, some scratching here and there - for example the headlights need some punchin ( a friend of mine has the tools for that, and he promised to help me out)... And so on.

                        A propos details - you can never have enough of them: Russian tank tools from Hauler, wooden coffe sticks (is that the right word?!) from McDonalds for the hood... custom made maps, etc. etc.

                        Hi folks...

                        Heres my first entry for FSM. Didnt know where to put it: Yes, its obviously A LF.IXE, but I planned a little diorama for it.

                         

                        Some facts...

                        I just looove to build dioramas, no exception here. UM Models just brought a beautiful BZ-38 Russian tanker, and it fits perfect here. It features PE parts as well as vinyl tires. Figures are scratched/rebuilt Tamiya tank soldiers, some are ICM figures (eg the dog).

                        The ground plate consists of bird sand/PUR gleu, followed by airbrushing, static grass and some clear paint for some rain stains etc. Work is still in progress and yes, my camera doesnt shoot perfect pictures atm - Im working on it.

                         

                        Regards...

                         

                        Lucas.
