a wet M 109

[zappa]

Hi guys and girls,

This is my belgian artillery M 109 on a drizzly rain day on its way to the shooting range at camp elsenborn.
(a realistic senario, but have to make up something for my wet mud look )

Very Cool ... May I ask how did you make that Wet Mud??

First you mix white glue and water to put the pigments on the model (in my case I used ground up chalk) after all that is dry then you soak everything with future, it may require more than one application.
Look for a video on YouTube done by scale model medic on a German tank road wheels. ( that's where I got the idea)

Nice one mate, there's one on display not far from where I live as well, at the old army barracks of Brasschaat where the artillery was housed.

You sure made a cool build out of it
Where those decals provided in the kit?

Cheers

I'm planning to do a base for this I think it will look a more realistic "in the rain/mud look than just the model on the shelf.
Any good tutorials on diorama base building? I found a couple on you tube but one can have never to much info
