Good job!

Rui SNo oils, no washes, no filters, no pigments (except in panzer II, I think) no aftermarkets, no PE.
Just a badger 200, and lots of humbrol enamel. That was it. Off course the end result shows all that. 🙂

Clifford KeeslerYou are welcome sir. If it doesn't have wings or rotor blades, I don't have a clue. I just sent all of my armour to Hunter Cummings.

Rui SHEHEHE I understand, mate.
For me is more, if it as wings it must be on ground with some vehicle around, LOL
is this a lyric??? (((😄)))
P.S. Lucky Hunter...

Neil PatrickLove this. Reminds me that I:
1. Built these first in the 1970s (badly)
2. Tried correcting and superdetailing them in the 1980s (giving up after countless hours)
3. Bought more accurate, better detailed and much more complicated kits 1990- now (very few finished)
This reminds us that great results can be achieved with simple old kits. Just add skill. It what's in the modellers fingers and head is as much as what in the box that counts.
Brilliant work Rui!

Rui SThank you for your kind comments, mates. Sorry for the late reply.
In this case first I build the pz III, them the halftrack, them I think it was the pz II (built by my sun and painted by me), them I recover the jeep, built in another Century 😄 or vice versa, not sure 🤔 it was a dinamic evolutive Dio, mostly becouse I had the space to add more kits 😉
@Neil, I've to agree with you. Slowly I Will try my best with better and more e expensive kits that I've in my stash. Also looking forward to see what you Will do Next 😎
@Markus, I'm glad you like this enough to comment.

NeilWow! Looks fantastic Rui 👍 I think Daniel summed it up well. You can indeed 'taste' the sand!

Rui SThank you Mate. I've learn a lot since, but I apreciate your kind words very much 🙂

Rui SThank you Stefan, Nice of you to stop by and comment this old work. I'm glad you like it.
19 January 2022, 23:51
Rui SThank you Mates. Very kind of you to comment. Apreciated. (You know how much I like your work too, so even more important to me).
I think I've evolve a lot since this One, but I sure enjoy a lot DAK scenes and in this case all this 4 kits.

Neil PatrickAlso reminds me Rui just how inspiring those early Tamiya boxarts were. 50 years on and they are still amongst my favourites. I don't know who painted them but he had an amazing style combining pinpoint accuracy of vehicles and people with an almost abstract use of colour. Try discerning a 'correct' RAL colour from them...
22 January 2022, 16:14
Rui S@ Neil, couldn't agree with you more. Even nowadays, you look to a pile of 1/35 tamiyas and even the sides are almost Impossible to resist.
@ C Jackson, Thank you for your kind comment, I'm glad you like this One. Apreciated.

Neil PatrickI put together a Pinterest board with my favourite Tamiya box art illustrations Rui, including some rareties. Whilst the recent ones are okay, none beat those 1970s ones in my view.

NeulingI fully agree with Neil and Rui about the Tamiya box art which really was trend setting. I have collected the box tops.
23 January 2022, 11:31
Rui S@Neil, Don't know why but the ones I like the most are the ones wth the subjects Over white
@Neuling, Over the years I've done that, as you know. And I've done a photoalbum:

Mina RoI am choking on dust and sand just looking at this, beautiful and very authentic!
20 July 2022, 21:19
Rui SHi Mina, Thank you very much for stoping by on this one. It was my 2nd dio (I Think).
when I finished the Pz III, I miscalculated the size of the base and then I added the halftrack, then the Pz II (made with my son), but there was still a lot of space left so, I ended up recovering the jeep (made n years before) to add it.
I'm glad you found it whorthy of your kind words. Apreciatted

gvizbiExcellent dio Rui. I love how busy it looks. So many details, I could look at it for hours 🙂
23 May 2023, 06:59
Rui S@ gvizbi, thank you for stopping by and comment this oldy. I Know you also like Afrika Korps and your excellent examplar model's. Maybe that's why you like this one 😄
@ Mr James thank you. I'm glad you like it. This is one Dio that was evolving for years. The big initial base always left room for another addition 😉
@ David, thx. You are too kind, mate.

Mina RoOne piece of advice, your painting of figures is great but one small thing to make them pop would be to buy a sheet of archer eye ball decals, I use them a lot but youll need to use a hole punch to cut them out.
24 May 2023, 05:45
Rui S@ Mina, thank you for your advice, noticed, but this guy's where painted a longe time ago. I think I've made some nice progress in figure painting since them, (I like to believe) but I and others always consider that in this scale and to look from 50cm or more, I don't need to give such emphasis to the eye balls, normally I use only a bit of darker color. I'm sure your suggestion will achieve better results than that white big staring toyish eyes that to often we can see in faces. Also I avoid spend money on aftermarket
@ James and Clifford, thx for your comment apreciated
24 May 2023, 20:35
Rui SThank you Randy for your nice comment on this oldie. I really enjoyed doing it, as I was adding models while I had space in the base that was intended just for the panzer III the figures and the halftrack. 😄
You can see more photos here:

I don't remember anymore why I ended up making 2 albums at the time 🤔

Clair GreenwoodRui my friend, you're getting into Shep Payne territory here. Absolutely beautiful dio !!

Rui S@Landlubber Mike, Thank you for your comment. Apreciated. If it were today I would do some parts in a completely different way.
@J35J, Thank you, its and old One but still I also enjoy having done it.
@Desert Marlin, Thx. Glad you like this One too.
@Neuling, Thx a lot for stoping bye and comment. Very much apreciated.
@Clair Greenwood, Thank you for your exaggerated praise, I'm glad you like it. But, I wish I could reach the heights of a Master like Shep Payne. However, I can say that as soon as I came across with his work in a magazine (there was no internet), It has always served as inspiration to me.
Also, Thank you all for the likes, If you want you can find more in this Tunís | Album by MIG (1:35)
