Gamera
Only question though, is she supposed to be abandoned?

 

Good question.  If abandoned as long as it would take for that much rust to form (decades), how are the IR devices still there and why is there still a rather fresh-looking coat up on top.  These are items that would have been removed by  by treasure-hunting Soldiers, Army technical units to examine, or civilians rather quickly.  It doesn't add up.  Additionally, it is all fictional anyways since the E100 was never completed and only one partially assembled hull was ever found.

 

Lastly, what is the point of the rubber duck????  Confused

I don't blame you, I'd hate to cover up such a nice weathering job too!

@Gamera : If i use more snow on the tank,my weathering will be gone... it's from a factory from Henshel and the roof is broke :) @Dorian : Those dio's came from a convention here in Belgium/Mol

I clicked on your blogspot and I believe in the 2013 folder there were some diorama photos - maybe those were photos you took of other dioramas? Not sure, in any case you do great work!!! Wish my models turned out looking like yours!

Looks very good! 

Only question though, is she supposed to be abandoned? Just wondering if so why you didn't put the 'snow' over the whole tank. 

 

Btw: Nice Jagdduckie!

Just try out the woodland snow i buy last year...
I use some pigment fixer from Mig and the snow become to look like dirty snow.
Don't wanna do it overdone..just a little will do here.
Otherwise is my weathering for nothing

I'll post it Razzie. Problem is it won't be anytime soon. Too much stuff lined up right now.

She's really coming together. Not sure if I said so but I love the Kilroy!

Looking good there.

For the antena, i went with the rear deck on the Jag. That where i would put it on this, probably in one of the back corners.

Lookin' good! I like the rough surface of the armour you've done and the rusty areas look like the real thing. Yes

Thanks. Ye, i wanted to go for low viz markings, the smaller the better. But at the rear, i felt the exhausts were a bit puny, so went big.

I am hopeing to have the final pics of the vehcile up on the buld thread tomorrow, but still got a lot to do on the base.

Look forward to seeing more of your pics. Like you, i found this a quick build. Even with the PE set and indy link tracks, its taken me about 3 weeks to finish this.

I have done quite a bit since, just got the final touches to do tonight.
