very nice!!
How do you make the wet looking mud???
By the way, that truck would plow right through that mud with no problem, it should be deeper

The way I do my mud is I mix some plaster of Paris with water, sand, Mig pigments dark mud,mig pigments acrylic, some white glue and some gloss varnish just to give it that wet look. I mix it until I get it to the consistancy I want and then just apply with a spatula.

I didn't want the truck to be totaly bogged down just enough mud that it needed a bit of a push from the Infantry to get going.

Hello... I like it very much. Only one observation, the grass is too clean. Don't you think?

I do like this, but my suggestion would be some more mud splatter on the figures

Good show!

I appreciate what you are saying and may add a bit more mud splatter to the figures.

Hi Gerry

Starting off with an empty truck in that slime might be tough with a single axle, but like others have said, a little more mud splatter on the pushers, their boots the grass and maybe just a little in the load bay !!!

But your stuff really rocks !!!!!!!!!!!!
