Hi, I like the scene overall. If you don't want to repaint the barrel, maybe cut it in half/angled and make it look more buried in sand

Awesome! My next project is a 232, so this dio gives me a lot of inspiration.... and a few ideas. Great work man!

Thanx guys for your comments..although it looks a bit better after touching up, it's still a long way from good...figure painting not really well done on this too...but still working on it...

Bah, you're too humble. The very fact that you completed a dio puts you above 80% of so-called "modelers" out there. This is good work man. As I said in another thread, it's not always about making the perfect weld-beads or getting that picture-perfect rusted texture on the exhausts. Putting together an eye-catching model or dio should be the ultimate goal, rather than trying to achieve perfection every time. And you've certainly put together a nice looking dio here!
