Holy hell Nige!!! That bren is cool, but those figures are totally awesome. I love those colours for the uniforms. Nicely done.
Wow... That farmer with the shotgun sure gets around haha

[Joesdad]

This is really really good stuff Nige, have pat on the back mate

[Nige99]

Cheers guys I am happy with them so far, wish I had more time left. But I'll be happy if I can get them weathered before I put them of the shelf I'll be happy. I'll come back to it in April and finish and then tackle the diorama.

Mike this farmer does do the rounds a bit be interesting how many times he makes a appearance in 2015

[Nige99]

Had a gloss varnish, decals and chipping







Then the oil dot filter






Then some light weathering

[Joesdad]

Looks great Nige, your weathering has really added to it, she looks solid

Fantastic Sherman and Bren Carrier Nig!

[Nige99]

I've taken my foot off the gas recently so I'm trying to get back into this Dio of mine!!

I've started the base for this and added some stones as part of a rock face.





I've also primed this now, so will be adding some colour to it. Then the vegetation and trees.

[Coen]

Just caught up on this Nige, awesome work buddy.
I love that firefly!

[Nige99]

Cheers Mike lost a bit of my mojo so trying to get back into things. I did enjoy the firefly build. Got to say it, them tasca kits are my favourite by far.

[Nige99]

Well I'm calling this done at last!!

AMAZING JOB!!!

what did you use for the grass and the mud?

[Nige99]

The grass was from woodland scenic's in 3 different colours. The mud was from Vallejo water effects but for some reason didn't dri clear so I painted it in 3 different Browns from Mig ammo range. I then gloss over it.

[Coen]

Holy $&!+ !!!
Wow Nige! I'll bet that weighs a tonne buddy. That's freaking awesome dude, I like the seafoam and baby's breath trees, very nice.
Very well done buddy.

[Nige99]

It's not that heavy Mike. Cheers for your input, means a lot coming from the master

[Tiger131]

Stunning dio your sherman and bren gun carrier is weathering gold and the figures set your scene off a treat

[Paul]

Wow that fantastic work mate, loving it dude, your best work yet

[Nige99]

Putting these pics here instead!!

[rodrant]

Ohhhh Nice ! Actually superb job ...the terrain is a wonderfull piece of modelling ...

the figures and the vehicles also !

What a nice diorama ...wish I have your patience and superb skill so to do something so nice like this mate !

[Nige99]

Thanks Antonio, the dio itself didn't take that long to do. Just lots of PVA glue and 3 shades of grass and a few grass tufts from Fields of glory (eBay) the shrubs and trees are from MK35. All I did with them was drill a hole and glue them in place.

Give it ago it's really easy.

[Igelnator]

Great work! I like the mud on the vehicle
