Didn't paint anything this week but managed to get 2 more wrecks reasonably matte.

Britannia Beetle:

Tried matting the glasswork on it, this was only succesful on the headlights, looked like carp on the other parts. Tried it twice then gave up.

Hobbyden Isuzu:

Miscast piece I got during my visit to the Hobby Den in May this year.

Group shot of what I have sofar:

Will add 1 vehicle to that, and I hope to receive my scenery back from Ireland next week so you can a more scenic group shot.

I've run out of wrecks to paint so on to the bits of junk and assorted rubble.

15mm Roof Water Tank from The Scene
Image
Image
Image

HO scale pallet pile from Preiser
Image
Image

Steel plate from the Sgts' Mess rubble pack
Image
Image

How it all ties in scale wise:

Very beautiful and inspiring work! What kind of board you will use them on, will it be flat with only movable terrain pieces added or static hills etc?

JR50, propably a bit of both. Meant as generic scenery for Modern to Post apoc / sci-fi.

Been raiding the bits box for bits and decided it is time to get work done on a bigger scenic piece. Might be overextending myself with that one, but we will see how it will come out.

Old Majorette die-cast and plastic trailer, front was broken off and the axle bent, so now it has a second life.
Image
Image

Metal door from The Scene. SInce I have no walls to put it on, a nice Vault door works fine for me too. The wheel is a Heller Blitz kit steeringwheel.
Image

And the big thing Im working on but which is eating up my painting time, just a teaser:

Grat additions, top notch work. That teaser pic of the big thing you are working on makes me demand more pictures, now! :D It has very nice patina effect on it. Is the brick work on the walls premade or by your?
