Hi, Excuse the poor quality pictures. (taken with google pixel XL) I've mostly been a wings person and dip in and out of building models as and when time allows. I've found building armour more rewarding as it seems to need a lot less sanding and filling seams! Here is my first attempt at a Diorama, using 3 Tamiya Kits. It's not 100% complete, steering wheel is still to be attached and some of the figures are still to be finished off. Kits are Tamiya BMW and Sidecar, Tamiya Protze and Tamiya Flakvierling. Diorama base was made from scratch and the landscape was made from plaster of paris. The drainage ditches havent worked, I used woodland scenics water effects (rather than real water by accident) and it just kept disappearing after a few days. Google Photos Album

Hi all, This is my first post on Britmodeller and 4th model since I started with this hobby again after a 15 year hiatus. I picked up this model in Sydney when I was there on holiday and thought it would make a nice change from my usual forte of aircraft modelling. Built OOB. The model goes together nicely and there were only one or two fiddly bits that frustrated me (I broke the wing mirrors). Painted with Tamiya acrylics and weathered using art pastels mixed with a bit of Future, and bit of airbrushing for a dustier look. I applied the salt chipping technique for the rust on the bonnet, more for a bit of fun than because it belongs on the model. The figures were a bit dismal, with seams all over the place and by this late stage I was losing interest. The decals are mercifully few (an advantage of armour modelling over aircraft modelling) but I still managed to cock them up (note the poor fit of the number plate). Anyway, that's enough rambling. Here are some pics. Comments and criticism most welcome. Cheers!
