Hi Frank, Really like what you are doing on this base. The details look great

Randy

Thank you Randy. Much appreciated.
There will be one more update for the base before painting starts .... when everything is added together. I´ll post it in a few days when I get some time. Cheers.

Wow! Frank , I follow to see your works always it is beautiful and there is excellent idea you are an artist

Nice one Frank, I like the trick of setting the tracks of the tank before applying the final ground effect, that's very clever, I also like your pipes, and the way there is a focus in the otherwise empty wall.
Good luck for that one

Thank you Adisak and Jean-Bernard. Your kind comments are appreciated very much.


Setting the tracks is an experiment of kind, just trying to see how this would work out. And you guessed the exact reason why I needed the pipes ... they are un-important ... but they were fun to make and add something to the detail level, mixed in with the rubble.

I´m back at work now again, so the pace has slowed down considerably. Ive finished up the messy parts of the base and its almost ready for painting to start. There is another level of rubble added on top thats not photographed yet ... that will come later!





As usual, more images and info on this can found at my blog on The Assembly.

really great diorama base Frank. lots of wonderful details and realistic debris. very inspirational. thanks for sharing. cheers, mh.

It is always a joy to see your work, can't wait to see more pics.
Thanks Warren

Hi Frank, realistic to the brick wall texture and fine details. Many knowledge that I can get from your work and follow up to your next step. Thank you.

Hi guys. I really appreciate that you take the time to comment. Thanks for that. Glad you like it ... need the push to keep it going.

"Push" "Push" "push" Keep it going! great work, I subscribed to this thread so I can see the progress!

Progress is good so far. Curious to see how the 'blending' goes when the tank lands on its track marks.

Looking great Frank. I'm looking forward to seeing some paint hit this.

Hi Frank,

sorry i missed that one (holidays fault)

I echo the others (what a lame comment LOL), but this is well done cork work.

Have fun with the painting!

Cheers
Claude

Really cool progress, Frank. Are you going to keep this base low or going to add a pole or something for some height?

Randy

Cheers guys for all your very kind comments. Glad you have enjoyed it so far. Its going to take some time to paint and Ive got the T34 to finish up as well, but I´ll be posting some progress shots to keep the interest up. Thanks again.
