Thanks Peter I must say im impresed with the tooling italeri have done with this kit. So far a bit off filler and no major fit problems just a bit off dry fit and sanding left and right.

mark31 Posted February 26 Author Share Posted February 26 Working on the base. First time i have tryd to work with asphalt from ammo works good but iff you going to do it make the paste thinner before you are going to work with it. Mark 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martinnfb Posted March 1 Share Posted March 1 Interesting approach, in order to replicate the asphalt surface, I am usually using black sand paper. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DocRob Posted March 1 Share Posted March 1 Impressive work all around Mark. I really like the low altitude passing over tarmac with pilots in and lights on. Cheers Rob 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PanzerWomble Posted March 2 Share Posted March 2 She's gonna be one large impressive Tonka when done . 😀 Could I offer a thought?, I found a while ago that putting subjects at an angle to the base often focused the attention more on them than the background and made for more a dynamic scenario , rather than having them square to it . Again just a thought . 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
