I am happy with them. I spend a little more time on the figure with the Italian camo pants than I wanted to. :roll: I have never painted this camo scheme before, but I really like it.

Small update.

Sculptamold used for the base with some plaster rocks that I made from some Woodland scenic molds. I then used cheap acrylic craft pants on the base and rocks.

Using three different Ammo wood colors a base coat was applied to the cabin. Tamyia Buff was sprayed on the stone work.

Image

A very thin filter of Vallejo 822 was applied to the walls.

Image

Multiple thin coats/filters of Vallejo 939 smoke was applied to the walls and roof. I am going with a natural wood color for the cabin.

Image

Then using 6 different shades of Gray I painted individual stones.

Thanks Philipp and Adam.

The construction on the halftrack is finished and I have applied the paint and decals. The MJ Miniature Tool clamps are nice, but very fragile. There are three on this model but I broke a couple in the process, so two of them are in the trash.

Well this has to be a record for me. I have finished two builds this year. I could have spent several more hours adding more details and accessories to the halftrack and ground work, but I was ready to finish it up. Here are a few pictures. I will try to get some more this weekend and send them to Philipp for the Gallery.

Very inspiring work
