Hi Richard!
Thanks for the interest! Well, momently I'm busy with constructing Trumpeter's PT-76B with the Voyager set. (was ment for the '51 mod but most parts are suitable for the B mod though. )
The tractor is almost done and I took a photo from it some time ago. Nog a good photo though but it shows the current state of it.
Cheers!

This heavy truck looks very cool! Your dusting came out very nice. The only "bad" point I can find is that i think the colour is a bit too bright.

Hi Jurjen,
Wow, that's a nice tractor you got here !
The whole weathering FX are awesome. I hope mine will turn out that great when I build it.
Keep it up.
Cheers,
Richard

Hi....I really like your maz.!
very great work but as said by Lars it appears a bit too bright.I've planned a 55 with this tone of green and I can suggest you to use some filters (or oils washes)to tone down a bit your maz.
But I think...cause you've wrote that you're at 60% of paint job that you'll adjust it.
Again,,,,it's not a critic...you've done a great job and it's lovely.
Keep up the great work
Regards
Ciro Riccio

Hi guys!
Thanks for your comments. I will try to finish the MAZ this weekend. I only need to add the windscreen wipers (is that how you call it?) and some details like the fire extinguisher. As for the bright colour, the green colour on the photo looks very bright indeed. But I will take new photos asap and you'll see it is not as ' Kermit ' green as shown above.
I also hope to finish my PT-76B Build. I will keep you updated!
And now off to work, mail delivering in the rainy weather, Holland. Bleh!

Hi guys!
I have some sort of new update, well, I just took some pics of the current state. I just want to show how the MAZ is at the moment and I started with the base. The colours on the photos are a bit 'raw' but in real-life they're much more vivid. I have finally decided how to present the MAZ. It will be a left alone MAZ parked somewhere on the country. (some kind of place where they store out of use vehicles) More or less like this:
I plan to make a scene where nature is trying to 'own' the MAZ by growing bushes etc. A bit like the photos I posted earlier in this thread. The photos show how the MAZ is at the moment and much work is still need to be done on the base, weathering and the details..
I hope you like it sofar!
Cheers
