I know this is the wrong place for this thread but i really dont know where to post this...sorry.

I'd like to share this build of dragons kettenkrad, The indy links were a nightmare and terribly small and there were a few fit issues but i really enjoyed the build,not my best work but fun none the less.



















Thanks to those of you who had a look.

That's brilliant. The photos belie how small that kit really is, there's just so much detail in the model and painting.

Thanks for the positives everybody,

Monica, the chipping is one of my favorite parts and i tend to go a little overboard. It's simply a lighter shade of the base colour or white done with a small brush or sponge then blackbrown painted within the lighter shade. Really easy and fun.

That is a really neat build. Even though only a small base there is pleanty going on.

Well built and painted. Nice one.

I have moved this to the soft skins section. it was 50/50 between that or diorama. Heads won.

Love it, great build and very authentic weathering. Especially considering the miniscule size. :D :D

I really like this one. It looks natural and the figures are very good.

BTW, what is a soft skin?

Cheers peoples,

Thanks for moving this thread Ian, i knew you would sort it :smiling3:

what have you used for that wall? can you tell me? you build it? or it is a kit?
Catalin, the wall is made from a thin layer of multi purpose filler (used for repairing holes in walls) spread out on a lid and left to dry then broken up into small pieces and layered. Kind of tedious but i like tedious...its relaxing.Thanks again for the feedback.
