dodgem37 Posted July 5, 2018 Share Posted July 5, 2018 (edited) Your skill-set is simply remarkable, Oliver. Following your progress is a delight. Did you draw/produce your decals? Is your figure painting bud local to you and a member of SCAHMS? Thank you. Sincerely, Mark Edited July 5, 2018 by dodgem37 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Figures were done by one of the top figure painter in Spain. Oliver Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thammond65 Posted July 9, 2018 Share Posted July 9, 2018 Hi there. Please don't take this the wrong way, your work is so good and I admire it greatly. This is also your model and your vision, so do ignore me entirely on that basis too. But I was struck looking at the pictures this morning that the vehicles felt a little too "dusty". This is a carrier where I assume (I have never been on one at sea), dust is less of an issue but salt spray and rain are more common. I wasn't getting that sense of sea weathering, but that is purely an opinion. As I said, your work is spectacular. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Peterpools Posted July 9, 2018 Share Posted July 9, 2018 Matt I’ve been checking out stamp collecting for quite some time after following Oliver’s incredible work over the years. Maybe we can join a stamp collecting club together Peter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was not trying to duplicate dust but only a shadowing effect using a wash technique. According to the photos I found on the internet these tractors do get beat up as you can see. This is my very first try doing any vehicles for a dio and I must admit I still have a lot to learn. I will try to duplicate the rain and salt weathering on my next one. Thanks again for your help i am glad to hear you like the dio so far. Edited July 9, 2018 by shark64 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
