As for he grass & plants, I used three different ways:

    [*]From my local hobby shop, I got different colours of static grass, empty them into a plastic box and make a mixture.















    [*]Found into my garden perimeter, I collect few natural stuff, cut and placed into plastic box for such use.







    [*]From my local super market, I got a small wicker broom. If you look closely, you’ll find some very interesting stuff for scale modeling use and dioramas building.

Water based white glue for wood, which becomes transparent when it dries, is just the right for the job. So, I opened a 500 grams canister bought for 2€ only, pick a small quantity, add just few drops of water with a syringe into a small metal container to make the right mixture and finally I applied on the desired areas to be filled with grass & plants, using a wet brush. Because the mixture is enriched with water based glue, it is easy to correct possible mistakes.












Finally, the FDCV scale model glued on the base with silicon. Final details were added. The antenna masts, the Browning M-2HB 0.50" 12.7x99mm NATO machinegun, some extra dust weathering effect, etc.

CHAPTER VIII - Epilogue


Considering that I am an aircraft scale modeler with no experience on tracked scale models, I have to say that I really enjoyed this FDCV building - no, I am not planing to build another AFV for the following 20-30 years. As for this polyester kit, I must admit it was much easier than expected.

Thank you for following this thread and I hope you enjoyed reading this article. I hope I’ll meet all of you, right after the summer holidays on Amorgos island, where the “Big Blue” Aegean dolphins are living and having fun. Click on the first picture for video.

Regards,
Nick

Hi,

"img11.imagehosting.gr" server is asking username and password for pictures Nick. Could you please change them as "public" ? Otherwise we can't see these masterclass :) work. Thanks. Keep going.

Regards.

Pictures are NOT locked or "private". Pictures are public.

As said to another modelsitesi forum member, sometimes, I also see this window (following picture), but I think that the problem is NOT caused by me or the file library which host the pictures. IMHO, I think that this must be a crash caused by modelsitesi forum, because I've already used these pictures on other international forums and never seen anything like this before. Also, keep in mind, that I see the exact same "problem" window, into other threads and articles written by other modelsitesi forum members.

I also tried black paper background (instead of white) & different light conditions and I was surprised on how the model looks like. From now on, black background and low level lighting only...
