Opel Maultier - Italeri 221

[Dario Risso]

Yeah, I think the stripes will look good, thanks!
Well, some update with other item of the scene. I added the tarp to the Nbwf, using the same tracing paper, glued and hardened with white glue






The 2 figures, both from Tamiya, the first one with a Legend Prod. head, the second with Tamiya head (man, What I was thinking...) Of course I change the head later for a Hornet one


The head repainted. OK, they doesn't looks as the Jaume Ortiz or Calvin Tan ones, but is the best I can do





Cheers

Thanks, Jamie! I think there is enough smilies, but I like the "salute" one, so I find one on the Web and upload to my Photobucket album

Second try with the figures, after a bath of alcohol (the figures took a bath of alcohol, not me! )

I paint the base color ("dirty" whites) then ligths and shadows, followed by a dark...er...outline? They still needs some retouching and some dirt in the boots and pants.
I will try to add some red to the faces, but I'm not sure how to make that

Looking great Dario!

[Jamie Tainton]

Nice figure painting Dario- seems you have an aptitude for this aspect of the hobby.

[Dario Risso]

Continuing with Nbwf; it needs some mud and snow on the wheels; it will be added on the terrain.








Suggestions wellcomed!

I made the terrain using a coat of paper maché covered with a coat of sodium bicarbonate, fixed with a mix of water/white glue.

The sign roads were drawed using Corel Draw, then printed and glued on strips of plasticard or cardboard (bad idea, the cardboard tend to curve)

Nothing is glued to the terrain, except the old log at the left







Suggestions wellcomed
