Building the perfect model---just not quite yet

Which is real and which is the dio!
It's either all real or all fake... cuz I can't tell the difference.

Yeah, after seeing this I don't know WHAT to believe.
The image of a discarded drum quietly rusting away in a foreign field somewhere. Very evocative. Top notch effort Bodge. Your weathering is sublime and the insects and foliage superb.

Current Project:
Figures from Dragon, "German 6th Army, Stalingrad 1942-1943", 1/35
I love it! Best thing is the closer you look the more little details you see.
Great to see you feeling better and back to the bench Bodge!
I'm afraid I'd have been tempted to write 'TOXIC WASTE' on the drum and add a two-headed squirrel and a spider the size of a football...

That is really great work all around. Nice work on the drum's corrosion. And all the flora and fauna and beautifully done too. In these larger scales its amazing how much detail you can pack in.
Bodge, have you ever checked out Chuck Doan's work? Well wroth a look if you are getting into this level of building.

Simply outstanding!
Remember, if the women don't find you handsome, they should at least find you handy.
Is it live or is it Bodge? (for those of us old enough to remember the Memorex commecials)
Your work is always stellar!
I'm glad you are better and back.
