G'day Zero
Thats looking great, ive noticed those twigs youve used for the pine tree branch's, very good idea, i have them in the garden but never thought that they would suit that use, good thinking, Marder looks very nice also, keep us posted, cheers!

Brother Juul,
the white painting on Marder is very very good. the snow looks also good but a lil cramy to me.and IMHO the diobase can be a lil larger next time :-)
be safe

Looks good, you may want to add some snow/mud to the tracks. What did you use to make the snow?

Looks Good, the only comment I have in the way of constructive critisisim is that the tracks look like they have not moved in months if not years. Metal should be showing through and not just rust. Go lookat any cattipiller digger on any building site and you will see bare shinny metal and not a load of rust!!

Keep smiling

thanks for the comments guys.

engin: I love the small base it gives a cool look to the marder, and the snow does look creamy because it was still wet at that time I will add some baby poweder to rough it up a bit

steve: I used bush *glitzender schnee* for the snow its something you can buy in a train shop

sam: I have already fixed this and drybrushed more metal on the tracks, I always overdo the rust on the tracks (I just love them mig pigments)

I will post more pics next weekend since that is the only time I can really build
