Scrap Metal - Update!!!

[tiking]

Not much to say here, but just experimenting. Saw a photo of a similar scene and thought I'd replicate it. Will probably add a figure or two, maybe a dog would suffice; not sure.

I was wondering why post pictures of a junk yard and then realized it was a scale model
Impressive skills

Looks like scrap from a mine site, because of the weathering colours.

Absolutely stunning work as always, Charles - thanks so much for sharing

Sorry if I missed it but how long were you working on this one?

Thanks Neil. This went together pretty quickly. A day or two. I am still adding more details to it. will add an extra load to the Suzuki as well. A figure or two, and a dog.

I've updated this dio by adding different shades of rust to break the monotone look of the junk in its entirety. I've also added steel rods as a load on top of the Suzuki. I've also added other smaller details here and there and add more interest to an otherwise mute theme. added more photos of different junk piles from different sites around the world. Added a name tag made out of foam. If you've seen the first load of photos I put up, you will then see the small changes I have made. I will add the figures as soon as I have done painting them. Thanks for looking.

Thank u Joe.

I've just added the figures to the dio. Again, I am no figure painting expert, but I always try to give it my utmost best. The figures were bought ready made, but I repainted them differently and because the original painting was not to my liking. I wanted to better the face and skin texture than what the original had. The dog has not been repainted(will do that later), although, I added it just to give the overall appeal to the diorama.

Superb additions Charles - the figures definitely give an additional sense of scale to the whole thing.
