RichO Posted April 14, 2018 Share Posted April 14, 2018 Hey All, This is about as much as I'm going to do on this build. However you know that everybody that builds a Dio base is never really done. I'll just keep adding junk to this until the Maz is really junk. That's it guys! I'm off to other builds, later all, Rich 23 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Badder Posted April 14, 2018 Share Posted April 14, 2018 (edited) Looks good Rich. I'll sit here and watch for a few months as I'm expecting those weeds to grow a bit more! Rearguards, Badder Edited April 14, 2018 by Badder 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brianthemodeller Posted April 15, 2018 Share Posted April 15, 2018 Not bad at all, but in reckon some rusty tools in the toolbox at the rear would just finish it off... oh and the mouse droppings in the cab. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlackMax12 Posted April 15, 2018 Share Posted April 15, 2018 Whew....when I read this title I was afraid you had actually junked this model after all of the effort. Glad to see that you meant a junked truck diorama. Fantastic work Rich, it sure does look forlorn sitting there and slowly sinking into the mud. Give that tree a few years and the poor old abandoned truck will be totally covered. It's a shame that something this complex just gets discarded. Beautiful model and the diorama is just the right setting. Take care, Lloyd 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John_W Posted April 16, 2018 Share Posted April 16, 2018 There are literally no words to describe this. I followed the build gobsmacked at every new post, and this is the icing on the cake. Astounding will have to do... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timmas Posted April 16, 2018 Share Posted April 16, 2018 Very nice Rich, although I feel quite sad too seeing the old girl left alone like that after all the care and attention she’s had. Having said that, apart from mouse droppings in the cab as @brianthrmodeller suggests above, a bit of bird crap is probably in order too seeing as it’s been under that tree for some time! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
longshanks Posted April 16, 2018 Share Posted April 16, 2018 Well it's been quite a ride .................................................. even if everything kept dropping off Shame you wasn't a bit more ordered in your approach You could have done an A _ Z of scratch building One tiny mistake I'm guess you've got several thousand dollars worth of tyres left on her. The locals would have had them off the first night Aside from that I wonder how much you'd get for her at the local recycling site Nice one Richard Kev 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TapChan Posted April 20, 2018 Share Posted April 20, 2018 (edited) This is just awesome! Looks like it came straight form The Zone. edit As I looked at it now, two things don't match. Windshield. Rope. MAZ itself looks like abandoned long ago, then who and how the hell used wipers lately? The hoist rope for me should look more like this one: Edited April 20, 2018 by TapChan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
