Simon, that's an awesome idea! I usually just paint stretched sprue the shell colour and cut away...may give this a try!

I think the dio looks good, plenty of rubble and debris.The medics helmet I also spotted and Icant seem to get past it every time I look at this dio. Why not scratch it a bit to show wear and remove most of the cross maybe this would obscure it abit

Aha, that's an idea, will definately do that, I'll scratch up the rest of the crosses a bit too, just to match it up a bit...
Also added a ton of spent shell casings around the mg, I just used stretched srpue and chopped up...will also add a partial bullet belt inserted into the mg.

Hi Everybody, well I got a nice little bonus at work, so I treated myself to a new digital camera! FINALLY! :-)
So I thought I would post some updated pics after doing some adjustments to the scene.
Gone is the signpost, with the signs now on the telephone pole, the three figures now sit where the radio operator is now, radio operator now is where the squad leader is, and I've turned the leader to the side. Also added shell casings by the mg added some bullet holes in the sandbags, and scratched up the crosses on the medic, as well as added some chipping to the helmets.
What do you think, better this way?
cheers

Kelly -
Really fantastic and I think you've got it all covered beautifully. Everything fits extremely well. Did you remember to leave the rear turrent hatch open? (Just kidding). This will do 'Outstandingly' at Calgary, and best of luck. Armorama couldn't be better represented.

LOL thanks Mike, yes the hatch is open! :-) I think I can finallly call this one "done"! My Photobucket must've resized the pics, because I had them set a little bigger so the shell casings could be seen...oh well I've entered the whole new world of this digital thing!
Hope it does ok in Calgary, there'll be some tough competition there, but hell if it gets me out of my home town for a few days who cares, I'm gonna have a blast!
