well just another short update, waiting for the decals for the door and the telegragh pole still but wanted to do some more so i tackled the oil drums and wheel, rusting was done with a kabab stick, box of cotton buds and AK interactive rust oil paint. only oil paint i have but i really like how easy it is to blend and transform, will be getting more oil paints as soon as i can for sure. so these drums and wheel are meant to be looking like they have sat in the 'wasteland' for a long time, i think they still need more mud thats been spashed up from the rain at the bottom of them though.

sorry to keep boring you guys but i have another update, after messing up the door decal and had to strip back and repaint the door again ive got everything i need ready, theh only item not in the picture is the telegraph pole, on to the final step now!

#might of helped if i put the right picture up!#

Looking good so far. What kind of "wasteland" are we talking about here? Third-world country or post-apocalyptic?

Erm good question!

I guess I was thinking of like a no mans land between two countries, the idea is meant to be like a field or grass plains. As the IT1 never really saw action in its short lifespan I've just gone with my impression of what it could of looked like.

Well after a long break from this, and my wife breaking the turret i repaired the damage and started the base, first time I've done this, started with a picture frame.

I have to admit, you are doing a bang-up job. OK. Who is the unlucky ba ard who has to reload?

Matt,
thank you, this went from a practice kit to warm up to becoming a very well loved baby, kinda snowballed to the work of 'art' you see now.

Yes I wouldn't like to reload it, after reading up on it I wasn't shocked it only lasted two years in service, Russian crazy ideas!
