  1. Once again, I'm out of words. Stunning!
  2. Stunning work, Martin! The only reason I can see for me not noticing this was that I must not have been coming to the site while you were actively working on it. Yep....just checked my profile... Oct 25. Very impressive! Gaz
  3. Did they possibly use dry track pins? I know a lot of WWII tracks had dry pins, but know little about French armor.
  4. The Char isn't a bad looking tank. I;ll be interested in seeing what you make of it.
  5. Thank you!
  6. Thank you, Sir!
  7. Well.... that was unexpected!
  8. Oh no! I can't believe they fondle them at shows. Streicheln ist in Queensland verboten!!
  9. I've got the base as good as it's gonna get. I'll have to add more snow around the tracks once the tank is fixed in place. But I've dryfitted everything to give me a complete idea of where I am right now. The pre-shading helps the the bas a little, but further attempts will be required. The wheels and hull are painted in my rendition of 4BO. I found the recipe and fudged a copy of it... sortta.... The ummm... infantryman's view.... I want to leave the tank green... surely they didn't all get whitewashed. Gaz
  10. Thank you for that answer, Martin! Here is the base after I used some blues to shade the current snow, then added more. It looks better, but i think more practice in the future will be in order. Gaz
  11. Thank you, Martin!
  12. Hi Everyone, My first snow diorama... heck, first diorama... And I'm using some hobby snow I recently bought. I pressed some tank tracks in it to make an impression, but they're very hard to see. I've seen wildlife photos where shadows in animal tracks look like a pale blue. is there a consensus of what works to make detail in snow photographable? Or is it a question of trying to use shadows and photography to tell the tale? Thanks for your thoughts! Gaz
  13. Excellent!!
  14. Another brilliant completion, Dave! Well done! Gaz
  15. Thank you, Peter! Thank you! Funnily enough, I didn't even think of adding more later... thanks for the tip! I have a little vegetation I have to work in, too. Thanks, Carl! Thank you! For the tracks, I dabbed on thinned white glue then covered it with bi-carb soda then brushed away the excess. I have some diorama snow for the base, but I didn't want to use it just yet. Gaz
  16. Good to see you up and running, Harv!
  17. As I'm working on a winter scene, I needed some snow. But not so much that it obliterated the details. What do you think? There'll be more blobs of snow on the inside of the tracks that I'll place strategically once the roadwheels and all are in place. Gaz
  18. Comrades... er I mean fellow modellers! Socialist Republic of Alberta postal system comes through in record time. Resin seat arrived today! Thank you, Martin! Gaz
  19. Yay!!! She's home. If you like we can make her look well-travelled with a sticker I've been seeing a lot of, lately: You can either get stickers or decals, in black or white: See you in the Northern Territory! Gaz
  20. This is a cool build. I hope that it ends up looking appreciably different from a standard US F4. Otherwise, your efforts may be lost upon us dilettantes. Gaz
  21. Ehhh.... it don't even have swept wings! But at least it's not as fugly as the Gloster Meteor.
