Just a thought, if it had been stripped wouldn't they have taken the tracks as well\ said:While still on with Dunkirk dio I have taken time out to do a little vignette entitled: 'FORGOTTEN RELIC'. This is a 1/35 Universal Carrier, battle damaged, stripped of hardware and just left in a field, it has been forgotten about for many decades and is just one rusty lump. It will housed on a board and various grasses etc growing around and in it.A couple of early pictures showing model made up and rusting starting, as you can see there are still some bits to do but I wanted to try some various rust pigments and blends, needs some washes etc. The tracks are being painted and weathered and then added.

Bit late now Gregg !lol\ said:Just a thought, if it had been stripped wouldn't they have taken the tracks as wellGregg
They have taken one set of tracks, maybe they came under fire or were in a hurry so just left the other track on.\ said:Just a thought, if it had been stripped wouldn't they have taken the tracks as wellGregg
Why thank you Gregg, it is slowly getting there. Glad you like it.\ said:Another superb build & weathering from you Si Gregg
Thanks James, it was slow going, not helped by the brown mess created by the varnish-hence setting too and re-doing it (use pigment fixer now).

The rusty relic that is Si...is that a compliment? Saying that my wife probably would agree with you.\ said:outstanding work yet again from the rusty relic that is si !
Thank you Moni. I was worried about the seats and how they would look but, having found an old picture of a leather seat from a rusting car that was open to the elements, it looked sort of like what I created, so happy with that. Glad you like it.\ said:top notch work, Si, some one gave her a good kicking , do real like the rust, you are useing look so life like,the way you blended the green in the seats looks spot on
