Mattlow Posted August 27, 2018 Share Posted August 27, 2018 Very nice work Scottie I particularly like your attention to detail in the diorama work. The buildings are especially nice (of course, the armour is rather excellent as well).. Matt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bullbasket Posted August 28, 2018 Share Posted August 28, 2018 They look great Scottie. If you don't know how to make the pictures appear in your thread, have a look in FAQ's. There's an "idiots" guide to posting photos from Village Photos. John. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlackMax12 Posted August 30, 2018 Share Posted August 30, 2018 (edited) Hi Scottie Hot as Hades as usual. It's been a loong summer with scarcely any rain since about early April so lots of dust and brown grass. BTW the Sin Bin closed about 2012. It was a real dive for quite a few years before that. Take care, Lloyd Edited August 30, 2018 by BlackMax12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Badder Posted August 30, 2018 Share Posted August 30, 2018 I was going to write a chapter or two (as is my habit) but I can't be bothered as I'm in a great deal of pain at the moment. Nonetheless I just HAD to respond in some small way at least. !!@""""(""&!!! brilliant! Intricate and precise work in all aspects, but most notably with regards to the vegetation in the dioramas. I think I spotted a bit of live moss in one, and have used it myself knowing that it was going to dry out and die, and I suspect you know likewise. It's fine for photographic purposes though isn't it! I also spotted the paper fern. I do have to ask about your plants with the small leaves... specifically the plant above the fuel drum. I assume you stuck those leaves on individually by hand? I can't give you any tips at all. You don't need any. I only have more questions to ask. The first of which is MORE PHOTOS PLEASE, from all angles, and with lots of close ups! Rearguards, Badder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PlaStix Posted August 30, 2018 Share Posted August 30, 2018 Very, very impressive models and scenes. Stunning modelling on all levels. Kind regards, Stix Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The moss does dry out but where possible I do like to use real plant life where possible which I collect when out with the dog. If you soak it glycerin over night then dry it out you can then spray it with clear varnish or various greens/browns as required. It doesn't last forever but does improve its shelf life. The plant above the oil drum is just a tree root with some scatter stuck with white glue. The tree with the 251 UHU is a wire tree which was my first attempt. Hope you feel better soon and it is nothing to serious. 42 minutes ago, PlaStix said: Very, very impressive models and scenes. Stunning modelling on all levels.

Rumblestripe Posted August 30, 2018 Share Posted August 30, 2018 I wish I could think of some constructive criticism. Truth us, I can't even think of any non-constructive criticism! Top work, sir. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
