That looks great Ralph. Is that a miniart base ? Well it's a great setting top work

Thanks for the kind words Ian.


The building and base were scratchbuilt.

Cracking build Ralph, great to see your building put to use too. Hard to believe this is 1/48

 

[Robert1968]

This looks so much bigger than 1/48 really ( more like 1/35)


It just shows us how good you are Ralph.


The painting and weathering is just so authentically real and this is nic to see.


There is a lot of depth in all this and I also see a darkness to the shading if I can be so bold.


In that I mean it has a depth to the colour as in menacing if that sounds correct.


Kindest regards


Robert

Excellent, Ralph. I love the shading and variegated tones on the tank.

Beautifully done Ralph, could pass for 1/35 scale easily your figures are superbly done (as usual)


Scratch built building and base look fantastic, YIKES! I better get moving on my current project! Though I am admittedly slow, I seem to move glacially compared to most:oops:


Once again AWESOME work!.........Jim

superb work Ralph,I real like the blending,of the grays,


from the cobbles to building and tank,which gives an overall darkness to the whole


scene,the big cat real sets of your building,and the weathering on her is just great,


very well done with the dusty look again the gray and stained rust ,what great work


on the figures also,


top notch work,very well done love it,
