Old Tamiya kit with Masterbox figures,

















I attempted to created rips in the seat,



I botched the figures up but i find that anything over two figures is so much work,



Thanks to those who had a look, Aaron.

Hi Aaron,

wow nice dio, really like the setup, nice colours on the base figurines looking good to.

but :rolleyes: I noticed, the story tells, the truck is stuck and the two figurines in the back 1 with the road piece the other with the shovel, are trying to get rid of the sand around the wheels. Maybe you could make a Pyle of sand that the guy with the shovel already cleaned out from the wheel, and maybe a little sand around the wheel. You know what I mean?

This is no criticism just an observation I made, hope you don't mind.:rolleyes:

Here's a pic. of what I mean;) not the girls but the sand at the wheels

Cheers Richi

Superb job, it looks really realistic. The weathering is excellent and the figures are fantastic.

Monica: If you look at the clicky buttons (Like, agree, great build etc.) just underneath you'll see a button named 'Reply'. Use this button to include a quote.

That is just sooooooo good! The attention to detail is amazing!

Love the tears in the seating, it's the little details that make it.

Thats a keeper!

Great work Aaron. one of the missing from my collection....

Love the details, and as for the 'botched' figures- they are better than my efforts when I have really tried!!!

Big gold shiny gong on the way to you!

Wonderful build Aaron, another quality build and dio setting. As Ian has pointed out your figures are 100% better than my efforts and I think you have nailed them. Beautiful weathering, just love it.
