Hi

My first scale model build nearly done, thinking about adding two crewmen chatting next to the tank and a motorcycle.

Thanks

Reckon the gun could do with some icicles

I\'d also \"melt\" the snow around the exhaust maybe. I\'ve no clue how to do that, but thought I\'d suggest it. Maybe some footprints on it as well.

It has not been running during the night and the men wake up and see that it is completely stuck and they need to rig a fire below the engine to warm it up. They also notice they need to chop away some ice around the turret or else it wont move.

What do you thnik about that?

Looks great. How did you make the snow?

looks good

the 308 needs weathering tho as the rest of the tank shows sighns of weathering as well as the snow yet the 308 looks too bright, it hasn\'t dulled at all.

also, tanks are heavy and don\'t sit on top of the ground unless it is a realy solid surface, they sink in slightly.
try to build the ground up around the base of the tracks a bit to suggest this.

also, the tank has to have driven there yet there are no tread marks on the ground.
they would still slightly show with the amount of snow fall their is in this scene.

just a few points to think about
