Well...you know you've taken too long getting back to something when the spiders have moved in...

I am hesitating because even though I pushed the other half of the hut into the mud- it must've expanded back out again as it won't quite fit...and I have been a bit anxious to chisel out what's there for fear of damaging things...at a bit of an impasse- but I vowed to finish this thing this summer...here are some other updated- views-

Sadly Ike seems to have suffered a flat tire...but what better place then around a whole bunch of plane mechanics

I've since brushed the loose grass flock off the hut Miles to go yet- but any update is a good update

 

[Hippy Ed]

Looks real good from here!! :woohoo: :drinks

 

[moon puppy]

Fine work Mike, can you dremal out the rough spots for the other half to fit?

 

[Jeeves]

Going to try either that or some mini chisels...

 

[Ruben Lopez]

You're doing a great job there mate. Yours is the second diorama somebody does using the hut since I did the master for Masterpiece models. (That I have seen, that is.)

For removing the offending spot I would go with a chisel because the Dremel will make a mess with all the material that will fly around due to the high speed that it operates.

Keep the good work!

 

[Jeeves]

Much thanks Ruben-

It's a great piece- wish there were more like them in 1/48! I'm liking the chisel idea as well- much easier to control.

 

[Arturius]

It's becoming realy good Jeeves!
It's because of that kind of good stuff's, you deserve the avatar

Cheers

I did three items for them, The Quonset hut in 1/48 and 1/72 and a marines hand cart in 1/35. They also wanted a german barrack but it never materialised. Later they stop doing the models.

Making friends-

Talking shop...

Thanks Ron!

 

[Prop Duster]

Well you certainly created yourself a scene didn't you?
And a fine one it is too.
You have given me some ideas for a future project, so thanks

Thanks gents!

I'm nearly there with this one...just need to add a few more figures and then balance out the groundwork a bit...been using the Wilder stuff I won a couple months ago.
