thanks IYAAYAS i tried a little weather around the wheel wells rear and front bumper and bottoms of the doors but it didnt come out that pronounced. i think i was more scared to over weather than under weather it. i have to practice some more hopefully my weathering will get better.

thans for stopping in ,

Here's one shot of it.    A question for ajlafleche......... where can i find your article in Armorama on how you did that stream? That is just awesome! That close up photo from such a low angle is just magnificent!.  Click on the word "here" just above the photo, that's a direct link.

   You have to laugh. I was just having one of those moments....... I found how to do it straight after i sent off my question....lol. Sorry aj. Maybe i should go back to bed....

hey boomer thank you for the comments. the creek bed actually has woodland scenics realistic water in it but it is hard to tell. hopefully i get better at it.

look through that comment of AJ's again and you will see the word here highlighted click on it and it will bring you to the article in armorama it is very good.

thanks,

kenny

   And Kenny, nice diorama mate! I love the base, very effective. I don't think your dry creek bed is too light. Alot of dry creek and river beds over here in oz are about that colour. Maybe a light wash of the same colour as the bank may blend it in a little better.

   What do the experts say?

thanks Gino i tried making her dusty never really weathered before some photos you can tell there is a little but otherwise it does look assembly line new. i dont want to over weather may try to add a little more dust to her and see what happens.

thanks again

hey thanks boyd for the comments. i guess you havent started your build either. i am now debating to finish up my F16 GB which i am way past the deadline date or go for that turtle award myself.

see you over at the stash boyd :)

Hey Kenny, Nice hummer. It came out quite well. To be honest, I didn't even really notice the white and when I did look at it I figured it had something to do with the lighting. So it isn't too distracting, at least from my perspective.

Again, nice job, and I'll see you over at the 'stash' GB!!  Does this mean you'll be able to start that big ol' monster for that build??  I gotta be the front-runner for the turtle...

that came out excellent aj it looks very realistic. thanks for the link next time i try water i will try the way you did it.

thanks again

thank you aj. the ditch is actually a creek i wanted to try water for the first time so i went with a sandy bed with rock at the bottom. after looking at it once i poured it i pulled a homer and said DOH !!! i should have made it a muddy bottom. lesson learned for next time :)

thanks again aj always value your opinion glad you liked it.

Nice clean build and truly excellent presentation. I love the plaque and patch!

The one thing that looks off is the white in the ditch on the passenger's side. Is that supposed to be snow? If so, keeping it to one side and adding some to the correspondind shadows of the rocks would tie things together a bit better.
