Slow but progress is being made, one of 2 schwimmies for a dio I'm working on.
Comments welcome.
Bruce

Great! Really like the way it looks with all that gear on. Tyres etc. could do with a bit of dust/mud, but a great 'loaded up' look!

Vinnie

very, very nice. As Vinnie said a bit more dust on the tyres but apart from that excellent detail painting. Can't wait to see the dio when you have finished it.

Thanks for the comments guys.
The tires/bottom half are going to be quite "wet" as this buggie's motor got swamped and another Schim will be pulling it out of the "drink". It will be sitting just at the shore edge and work will just about begin to get the motor going. I wanted to get some photos before the mud flew.
Bruce

Great. I admire your attention to detail and your painting skills. I still have yet to master those. Again looks great and i cant wait for the dio.

Matt

Thanks Matt, It's hard to keep up with the level expertise at Armorama, but I learn somthing everyday from these guys.


Cheers

I have always liked these little cars i guess because they are so different, your model looks amazing i can find no fault with it great work can't wait to see the rest.

Realy, realy nice. I like the chain on the front, just rusty enough without looking to 'orange'. Your great painting skills have already been mentioned..

I do like the German optimisum,or sense of humour, evidenced by the single paddle at the side.... as for the stick grenades hanging by the side.. :-)

Great, hurry up and show us the diorama..

Cheers
Henk

Hey Bruce, that's great.
I agree with Henk about the chain- it was the thing thgat made me sit up and look!
AND did you have to go to the level of painting the screw caps on the grenades?... I'm going to have to get some really fine brushes and/ or big magnifying glass to keep up with some of you guys!

MArk

Thanks for the kind words guys, now if I can just learn to take a decent picture. Henk your right about the grenades, although I have seen pics that shows this as a storage place, in this case I think the crew would have removed them when they ventured into the water.

Cheers
Bruce

A: Your model is great.
B: Your pictures are too (why is everyone so self-conscious about their pictures?)
C: The grenades position is no different than the location of land mines on American half tracks. We all have our lunacy.

Thanks Jeff


I would like to inprove the depth of field, I suppose better light and a tripod would probably help.
