Forklift
Posted by Tiking on Tuesday, December 22, 2020 9:55 AM

Weathering a forklift for my present diorama I am working on at the moment. I used the sponge technique for the chipped areas as well as a sharp Xto knife. I used light dust, and dark brown colors from Citadel. This will be on a diorama I am presently working on.

The torn seat is a good idea. Love the pallet.
