I've stared the build of the Russian field car, the GAZ-67B. Most of the assembly has been done and all parts are base painted with Tamiya's Nato Black.

Another update. This kit is really simple to build, not a lot of parts. Base color and decals are done, now let's see if we can make it a bit dirty.😉

First weathering stages are finished with with panel liners and oils. Next will be some rust and dirt and stains. But I will have to wait for the oils to dry first.

Thank you Acki and James! 🙂
I've started working on the figures now. Only assembly and base paint so far. These ICM figures are really nicely detailed. There is a significant difference between them and the Tamiya driver figure from the GAZ-67B kit.

Thank you Acki and Stephan!
The ICM figures are great, but there is one thing though.. They do have alot of medals on their chests. It's like they are taking part of a parade or something. Wouldn't they just have the ribbons during wartime deployment? It seems a bit cumbersome running around with all of those medals on their chests..

So, everything is finished. 🙂 I did a little mockup with an old Airacobra build to give it a little more context.

Thank you Murad and Tim! 🙂 For now the car and figures will go along my planes in the bookshelf. I hope to learn how to build dioramas some time in the future.

A lovely gathering... Beautiful paint job in48 scale! All the medals just add a lot of eye candy, looking great!

Bjorn, It's kind of like a model build as to diorama's, You picture what you want it to look like. You research it and then decide how to do it, and each time you do it , you learn more for the next one. Also, just like models you learn to paint things and realize more colors brings things out. should you look at my builds, most have some type of diorama to them, some simple, some not so. If I can help in any way, please feel free to ask. I'm no pro but do a decent job.

Thank you Slavo! 🙂
And thank you Tim for your encouragement, It is very appreciated! 👍 🙂 (love your work btw). I will certainly post any future dioramas here on scalemates.

Tom ...
Love the figures! I've taken a break from model building for the summer but I'm tempted to get some figures and just learn how to paint them. Bravo! Amazing work

Thank you Tom! 🙂 Painting figures is fun and not so hard if they have a nice level of detail.
