WIP Critique 120mm Brit Tanker from Stormtroopers

[gothicgeek]

Ive been working on the base ....

The crate is done with lots of layers, some dry brushing, washes, more dry brushing, more layering followed by washes and dry brushing, with a final set of very thin washes!

And I did two of them!!!!!

Static grass will mostly be obscured by the layer of snow and slush that will be added next...

This piece is really taking shape Mark the crates look fantastic, one up for dry brushing and the wally mug 'don't think I have seen one of them since serving my time ( brickie that is) :lol:

[Stephen Ward]

Cheers dude, wonderful work. Really enjoy every step by step you post, and this one is outstanding. Well done.

 

[Ferris]

Sounds like a lot of work on a couple of crates Mark, but they look terrific!

I note you used two different ways to finish the shells, NMM and metallics?
IMHO I think the highlights of the NMM version are a tad too stark. But it may be the pictures.

Anyhow, I look forward to the finished piece(s).

Have been following when I can Mark, and must say and he looks super. Think the boxes were a a great investment in your time as they are great. Graet job all round.

Don ... Thank you!

Sam thank you!

Almost finished...
