nice, the trrack could look more weighted in the ground tho
camo is nice, but for a abandonded booby trapped tank i would expect a lil more wear and tear.
wash on the roadwheels are nice, what paintis did u use to paint and to wash?

jimmy, I know what you mean, the tracks are not yet connected to the base as it needs more work
I`ve decided not to go overboard with chipping and such,but it still has them on places you would expect it. The paint is a mix of Gunze Sangyo and Tamiya acrylics, dark yellow was mixed from sand color with yellow and white added, green from tamiyas olive green with yellow and brown one is tamiyas red brown straight from the bottle. it was then protected with a clear coat for a satin finish for the filters and washes done with artists oils and then played around with pigments a bit

@KoSprueOne it is not celluclay... I use real dirt from my back yard, mix it with water and white glue. if it is drying rapidly,with a hair dryer for an example,it will crack

Nice composition Lisec !!
I have to agree with Jimmy, it could do with little more weathering.
Otherwise, you've done a great job !!
Cheers

hi matija

looks really good to me and i really like like the smaller deatail painting like the tools and jacking block and it makes it even more impressive in 1/48 scale.
i look forward to seeing it finished.......

as a matter of fact...the jeep got left out completely there is a modeling comp here tomorow, so it will not go into diorama class, then after that,I will add a fig or two(NOT Tamiyas for sure... ) and maybe enlarge the base a bit,I`ll see
