Hi Alex Some nice work on a tank I'm not too familiar with (it's not a Sherman) The winter camouflage has come up well and th subtle muddy splashes are beaut Good stuff Brad :side:

Re:Something really different Update June 19, 2010 Gday Bob Wow. That is something else! (Well not really. But you know what I mean :blink: :laugh: ) This should be a beaut insight into the construction methods you have undertaken over the years, if one is to assume that the method is...

hehe well done... Who are these people with the time on their hands to make these clips? :lol:

Hey Ruders You'll find that the creative jooces can dry up with extended periods on the one figure, and also the curing times can limit the run-on with one figure so a few on the go is smiles all around, right? :gogo Brad

Hi Giovanni and thankyou! I think the person to talk to would be Jenny or definitely Dave Harper. He would be the best authority on PTO M4s (Pacific Theatre of Operations) All the best Brad

Hey Giovanni At a pinch, I'd say that the Sherman in question is a M4A3 from the PTO? The support stands for the engine access doors can be seen on the edge of the rear deck. The extra armour plating for the running gear would be indicative of protection from ground troops in close quarters...

Thanks Andy... He is all I have now after that effing reffing performance in Australia vs. Ghana... :(

Hey Ruders Is this vehicle a complete SA design and build, or an improvement on a base model? What is the gun on the back of the vehicle in one of the pics? Looks almost like a recoiless rifle... But then what do I know about modern stuff :blink: Brad

Well thankyou Jenny Laura Glenn and Joe. Joe, here is a pic of the tools I use. The tool in question is quite handy for getting in to recreate long folds, and as it is not symmetrical, when reversed it assists with different angles of approach. As can be seen, all the tool differ at their...

Ok as promised/threatened here are some more photos... The collar can be seen finished (for now) with some seam detailing to the edges... I should just revise my initial measurements on the length of this belt! As can be seen it is not much more than 30mmm, and this is sufficient for the waist...

Gday Mike been a while huh! A cool lil scene you have developed here mate. The colours of the terrain blend well with each other. The positioning of all the elements looks spot-on,and I like the little rise off to the side. The pines I think have experienced the same problem as a few I have...

Hey good stuff Kenneth! A right grimy sod it is, with deht in all the nooks and crannies... I have heard of the build online, but will have to wait until tmrw to watch your links (only for the build/paint/weathering process; I laugh at your expense already ;) ) as it is after midnight (and...

Re:My very first Diorama! Without close-ups Bob, I'd be hard pressed to see how bad this is in comparison to your newer works... That said, I will take your word for it :laugh: It really looks monumentous and I like that you have mentioned certain limitations of the day and what you have...

John, Bob, thanks for your interest also... Ken Abrams wrote: :thumbsup :bgrin :bgrin :bgrin Funny stuff mang. Sounds like I am a carny type in a freakshow... Well the line blurs sometimes around here... ;)

Ah banter... ;) Does a M4 Sherman with it's rear deck engine access doors open count? :blink: Brad :side:

Hey thanks so much for the feedback you all... I too await his arising from putty to something useful! I have sculpted his M41 (Parsons) jacket collar, and it is in place with a little of the shirt collar showing around the neck line. Next I will attach a lead foil belt which I find is easy to...

jenny croft wrote: Just hangin'... :pinch: Ok sorry. I'm thinking the pose lends iself to a right arm holding a weapon (yet to be determined) and the left could be hanging with a cigarette, OR depending on which way I decide to go with his legs (they are currently right slightly in front...

Hi there folks Here is a quick snap of one of a few figures I have on the go at any one time... The plan here is to have a slightly bedraggled and injured Armored Infantry doughboy showing the fatigue of sustained warfare. He will be suitable for a late autumn/fall to deep winter scene. I...
