WIP I had a little house in Vietnam ...

Posted by csago on Saturday, November 24, 2007 8:01 PM

This is the building I´m making for a Vietnam Diorama with some running NVA soldiers in a rice paddy, and a OH-6 US helicopter and a DSHK heavy machine gun ... the title will be "LOW LEVEL HELL", just the "moto" of the scout platoon of the C troop 16 cavalry regiment of the famous Hugh Mills pilot (of course the OH-6 is the DML Dragon one).

All materials are from chinese bazzars, but the natural sticks that are just natural sticks from dead plants from a garden near of my house.

The NVA figure is not all painting, just WIP, only to see the proportion of the building.

I must paint some parts of the buiding, just to give a "faded" look.

My excuses for the bad pictures, I´ll do it better next time :)

Comments are welcome. Thank you.

FANTASTIC.

Looks almost perfect the way it is. The use of the natural materials makes it.

Will keep my eye for the finished product but my feeling is the hut will steal the show on this one. Looks great

The structure is really top notch work. Does it follow the structure of the original, or just give the correct external appearance?
