A small Dio that I have finished on one of the campaigns.
The LVT is from Italeri, figures are from MINIART left over from another dio.
The foliage is a mixtures of dried moss, aquarium foliage and twigs
Could have done better on the LVT, turned out OKish

Very nice, like the weathering, subtle but effective. Groundwork looks good also. One thing, the cargo compartment would not have been painted white. It would have been painted to match the exterior. The inside of the driver's compartment would have been white, but any large area visible from the air would not. Al

Agree with the prior comments,, looks really good overall! Only other thing I would suggest is to have some bits of that nice groundwork stuck into the tracks here & there.

The LVT looks great and also awsome work on the jungle.
Only the plastic Figures (Tamiya?) doesnīt fit at all to your great build because of the bad Detail. Itīs like to cast pearls before swine. Some of the Evolution Figures would be suitable for this work.

thanks for the comments
Al- I will keep that in mind when a build another LVT in the future
Jack- your right it does look a bit bare on and around the tracks. without debris and foliage
Stefan- The figures do look a bit naff, the LVT looked bare without them and I am too tight to pay for resin figures

Gary, You don't always have to go full resin, just replacing the heads with some of those available from Hornet goes a long way to improving some figures. Looking forward to seeing some more from you. Al
