Really outstanding work, Terry... when I grow up I wanna be like you!

Oh! Almost forgot: most excellent pics, my man!

Cheers!

Great details in this project. It shows you put a lot of thought into the project and it's not just a bunch of 'stuff' thrown around a M113.
Good job.

WOW !! T,

This came out looking Fan-F*#&in'-Tastic !!! Oh Yeah !

When you did the ground work you mentioned that you Held it in place with Future. Did you mix it into the Dirt , or did you just shoot it over it after it was laid on the Base. Either way - That's a New Technique on Me.

While you are at it , You might as well Add the Grunt Slammin' :drink some Budweiser with a few crushed empties on the Ground & Rig the Base up with a Motion Sensor to Play some Credence & The Rolling Stones ... Ya' know like their Jammin out tryin' to Relax ?? ( just my $.02)

Awesome JOB :drink

ERIK

Thanks Erik!!! I put the future on with a paint brush on small areas at a time and then sprinkle the dirt on while the future is wet. I do small areas so I can control the application better. I use future because if I mess up(which happens alot) I can remove with warm water and start over.

The lawn chair is a classic - good scatch work. The details are great and the gear inside really gives it the feel of life. One of the shots just shows all the name plates etc on the wall of the motor -nice detail.
Base is excellent and as MOONPUPPY said, maybe we just get you to make our bases :laugh: .
Very nice and congrats on finishing the GB.

Ian.

Thanks Ian!!! :laugh: Not all my bases come good! :laugh: Still got some figures to add.

Re:Terry's M113 "LETS MAKE TRACKS'"TROOPER&SPIKE"

I think the M113 has about all it needs except for some living beings. With that in mind I added Spike the dog which comes in a Tamyia detail set for modern armor. Next I added Trooper which is a Warriors Vietnam figure. I'm not much of a figure painter, but I like to add at least one figure to a build for size comparison. So here they are Spike and Trooper comments welcome.

Yo Terry,

I also like Spike...

Your work is awesome and there's no way for it not to look good... just amazing!

Cheers!
