vimana Posted May 27, 2014 Share Posted May 27, 2014 Your diorama is very nicely done, and the subject is uncommon and interesting. Great job! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jochemp Posted May 27, 2014 Author Share Posted May 27, 2014 Thank you for your kind words, This is my first dio and first time in 1/72, macho-scale-eyesight... The soldiers needed a little more detailing, flat coat on the tucano, and the propeller Also need to apply another coat of green over the grass in order to get the color variety found in the Colombian llanos... working my way on how to make the wind effect from the main rotor. I've had fun doing this... A real headache was on how to make the trees, Using glue, sponge and lots of patience. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
