Tamyia Hetzer (mid) 1:35 WIP

i know railroads stuffs have lots of supplies that can be used for dioramas , i did a great provision of it to use in dioramas, terrain grains, various grass types and lots of people in N, HO and 1/144 scale (1/72 boxes are for planes)

some i used for sci-fi dioramas

these are in n scale (1/160), i prefere to buy unpainted that cost very low respect the painted versions and comes in large number and lots of poses  (cheaper way always!). And are all in hard plastic!!! not as common 1/72 soldiers in soft plastic.

For tracks basically i use same steps, but i wash and paint with enamels .

This is my last tank in the stash but actually is non on workbench. (even here i scratched something )

Waiying for final pictures

Well ladies and getlemen.... I am calling my project done

I did adress the little issues that Hinksy pointed out (thanks!):

And like i said i added a figure in the background to make the area more "active":

And i couldn't help using the panzerfaust that was in the set that came with the figures:

At first i used some fake snow that i picked up last xmass but it turned out to look rather coarse. So i used a tweezer to pick out the worst big chunks. I then turned my attention to using something called "paverpol pigment". Appearantly some kind of pigments to color clay but very usable as dust/ snow

Took me the better part of a month to complete all this and i must say i am quite pleased how it turned out. Lastly i want to thank each and every one of you for looking at my work and the comments/ advice i received. This will certainly not be my last foray into armor/ dio building

Richard

mission accomplished

it's great!

the one crew with mg remind me wolverine!

I was even impressed by the probably recoil of the mg , till i fired with one in military one year service.

My shoulder was more impressed by an old garand but the mg tracer was a good show

what's the next Kermit?

really nice job there Richard. I must say i do like you figures, especially the faces. thats thye thing i find really lets my work down and i have to work on. You have done a great job. The only thing i would pick up is the little bit of snow at the back,  on the exhaust where it comes out the hull and next to the spare tracks.  But thats very minor.

Great to see your going to do more dio's, we could do with more dio builders around here.

Richard thats one beautiful job buddy You said you don't do figures well but I do beg to differ with that statement. And the dio is defiantly top notch, and the tank well I can only aspirer to build them half as well as you do sir. Yup this is another one that will be going in my album right now.

Very well done Richard. I like the base and the fence is pretty cool too.
