Thanks Rob, it's not as hard as it looks, folks should try experimenting more and bash things up a bit.
Any old dust collector can be used and with a bit of practice one can start turning out some pretty convincing scenarios.

That's the best idea I've heard in ages that makes sense. Now I know what to do with my models that eventually get their turn to sit in a box on a Shelf

You don't have to give away your secrets if you don't want to but what do you use to put a bullet hole in those things? I imagine Maybe a warmed up soldering iron? Have a candle and heat up the end of a screwdriver? Drill the hole with something really dull so it kind of melts the edges?.

OK you got me......old pocket knife and cigarette lighter

I had a feeling it was something super simple and down home. I do have a lighter to heat up the end of my Revel glue tip when it gets clogged and I thought of getting a little tea candle and heating something up. Tools that work. You can't beat something like that. Like, to me? The only interesting rifle is an accurate rifle

Also you can study some tank wreck pics on line to try and get a bit of reference material.
Pick something simple at first and have some with it and give some old forgotten builds a new life.....or death
depending on how you look at it.
