Friends,

after a severe attack of The Modelers Blues I took the brush at hand again.... and I decided to continue on my Splash Campaign Dio..."The Frome Bridge"....

I worked on the ivy on the bridge and it came out quite nice. I'll do an article on making ivy on short notice, but I'm afraid I can't do it within the next two weeks...

Here's the result of my afternoon with a brush in my hand....

wo0ho0o nice that looks like something simular wich is here @ the river maas

nice work looks like real

:D

Danny, that is some nice ivy on that bridge.

I hope to see it in september

hi Danny, Great work, the ivy looks like real! A good paint job and a nice bridge!!

Laurie

Nice!! Eagle - Funny you should post this. I was just thinking of this diorama and was wondering how it was going.

Very nice.

Whehehehe

Yup Danny This is going to be an awesome dio dude and I really can`t wait to see it finished. Also I`m looking really forward on that article on how you did your Ivy on that bridge.



Damned why is everybody always picking the words right out my mouth :-) :-)

Oh man, that is sweet. Actually reminds me of some kudzu growing not far from here near a bridge.

Danny, I absolutely love how the ivy came out. Can't wait for the article.

Dito!
Great to see you got your socks on again. Looking forward to seeing this go the whole way and also that ivy report. Ive thought about that a few times, but have always put it off. As you´ve done it so well, think I can wait for a while again and read the article first. Good luck!

Terrific work!!

What is the water made of?

looks very real.

Danmo

Jan,

I think you have problems with the AZERTY or QUERTY settings of your keyboard, but the message is understood

Danny

Ha !

Danny, I was in Portugal and Spain for a few weeks, and checked the site from an internet café. They have these gruesome keyboards, even worse than Qwerty ! SInce I"m used to typing blind on Azerty keyboards...

When can we expect your article on how to make the foliage ?

Jan,

good to see you back alive and kicking again.

The article will be on the site withing a week. Tomorrow I'll start a step-by-step photo session. After that I'll write the words to match it and ........voila.... post it and you'll all have an easy way to make Ivy.

Danny,
I think you did an excellent job! The ivy looks real, and the water is as good as anything I have seen. Nice work, sir!

amazing work there #:-)
