nice !
You have a very understated style about your work Mike, nothing gets over done, all very subtle work 🙂

Although I would love to see you a derelict at some point😉

Hey Mike, reckon you might be persuaded into doing a derelict sometime ?
Would love to see your take on such a project 🙂

Hi Mike, yours Gama Goat like it very much.
I have seen the Buildingreport to your Gama Goat in the current Airfix Model World 04/2016.
Your self-made S-250 Shelter is you very well.
I have an ask of you, could you give me please the plan to the Shelter?

@Markus I built mine using photos/guesswork, and it wasn't until after the build (of course) that I found these plans:-

There were lots of different configurations of doors, hatches, vents etc., but there are lots of images available online.
 


@Choppa I have thought about derelicts a few times, both armour and aircraft – you've got me thinking about them again 👍

haha good stuff !! 👍 😄
I've done a few derelicts but only because I've over done the weathering due to a certain amount of ineptitude on my part lol 🙂

..... "I think I've just found the perfect subject."
Oh really ? are you going to make a derelict model of my honesty ? haha 😄 😄 😄

I think when one posts up pictures of ones models there is no getting away from anything but an honest assessment, especially if one wants to progress ones skills 🙂

Anyhow, I am curious as to what might be your perfect subject for an abused wreck ? 🙂

You really did a great job here! Love those green & brown shades, give the model a very realistic finish. Did you build the cassonette with styrene?

Nice (but basic) kit from Tamiya. I added a few details and scratch built the S-250 Communications shelter that sits in the trailer.
