Yeah for sure, my LHS does a 10% card, and I use "think hobbies!" as my online store,they always have good deals and a $10 flat rate for shipping or free over $125.😉

Flat rate and $125 FP that's pretty good, I use BNA Model World for online $150 for free shipping but also amazing deals.

Very nice result from such an old Italeri kit. Good paintjob and convincing mud on the skirds. But please remove the "Flowers"😉 It will make this excellent model more realistic.

yeah those grassy bits do need to be a bit more mashed in with the mud 🙂

One thing at a time, yes since these photos have been taken the grass had been given a little more of a mud bath.

Sweet 🙂
I've yet to tackle dirt like that, I can imagine it might be a challenge to get as real looking as you have 🙂

To tell the truth it is really me just winging it I have to many times gone into a project with preconceptions and studied ways from the magazines and watched countless YouTube how to videos over the years and when applied sure the basics work but then I felt ok it looks like theirs but not the way I wanted it, the flare is something of your own so yeah I just work my stuff like a canvas. As far as trying to make the thing realistic yes but no I'm trying to find a medium to represent heavy it is a rendition of the real object but then again nothing but a model and or a toy, I do like to take them off the self and play with them. Thank Choppa "we like Choppa"...

I think it looks perfect 🙂

Yay me too, I think of them as Art Toys 🙂

I've taken to adding weight to my models just so they feel better when holding them (and playing with them) etc. 😄

Good to study though, but yes, like scales and anatomy, once learned good to just let your body remember how to paint, play or draw etc.

Anyhow, NNNnnnnnnnnnrrrrrrgggggghhhhhhhhhooooooowwwwwwww DAKAKA DAKAKAKA !!! KaBoommm! 😄
