Hi guys heres my recently finished Airfix churchill tank, opinions and feedback are welcome!
I know the base isn't quite finished yet as i'm going to varnish/ paint it, what shade or colour would suit this build in your opinions?
Thanks
Dan

Nice work Dan. I like the base / diorama. I've always liked to paint my bases black, which I find looks quite effective. Just my opinion though - a nice stain / varnish also looks good...

Thanks a lot Greg!
Ive seen some of your builds and they are very impressive!
I kind of like the idea of black, maybe with a varnish over it to give quite a dark finish would be good.
Thanks!

Nice build there Dan I like the work you've done on the base and the figures.
i think you use a light brown stain on the wooden base, It'll blend nicely whith the colors on the model and the ground and it will also make the grains in the wood pop.
Cheers
