Looking good so far but I have one little thing I think you should fix, the 232 was not set there by a helicopter, so you need to add tire tracks behind it. If they are there than nevermind, I cant see them in the pic. Other than that Its a good start and is really shaping up to be a nice little dio.

HI Matrix, Tracks are there you just can't see them from that angle. In fact thats why everything is setting on the still wet celluclay, so that there will be an impression of weight given to the different items.

Hey Waterboy

Thanks Guys, Yes Chip as soon as the celluclay dries it will be painted a base coat and then drybrushed several different colors. Then small little bits of vegitation will be added here and there.

Question - what's written on the barrel next to the tent?
I like how this is coming together. Nicely done, I like the lack of fire too.
