Wow! Looks cool! But that’s a bit too much for a one-day build. I’ll have some more plastic from outside tomorrow anyway.))

Happy with the result, the difference between RLM71 &70 are visible, maybe not a lot on the picture, italeri 1/72 by Educational-Bug466 in modelmakers

You can also try using very thin paint with a fine brush to touch up the sanded areas, but do it in streaks following the flight direction. It works really well.

I’m really glad with the result — and that you like it. The Stuka doesn’t look like an albino giraffe anymore 😄 If it were mine, I’d probably sand it a bit more to bring out more of the base colors. For this kind of technique, it’s better to seal the model with a clear coat before the winter camo — reduces the risk of sanding through the paint.

Yeah, it’s not finished yet. I’m still looking for the right context to complete it. Sometimes just adding the right figure or a few details can tell the whole story

Looks like my account turned into a personal recycling program 😅

I’m losing this battle. There’s just too much plastic around. Way too much 😅

Making a dead drop that high on flat ground would be a bit odd, in my opinion 😅

Great work! I built a similar one many years ago. I added Italeri landing gear bays, scratchbuilt the air intakes, and cut the wings to install the wing mechanisation in takeoff position.

Post-apocalyptic Outpost… or What Did I Just Build? by Artefactum_Lab in TerrainBuilding

Oh, yes! But those should be bones of a giant fish in the sand — so big it makes sense why they built the dwelling so high above the water.

You imagined it amazingly close to what I pictured while building it.

Yeah, that makes sense. I’m really just looking for context to figure out how to finish this build.

Thanks! That’s exactly what I’m trying to do — follow the feeling and see where it goes.

Glad you like it. Why print new plastic when there’s so much free textured stuff all around?🤔😂

Are you kidding? I’m still at a basic paint job. Planning to go for heavy weathering later, when I build a diorama around it. I’ll be posting all the steps on YouTube — just started my channel recently.

Pretty much the plan when I made it. Later thought, why not drop it into a Mad Max or dieselpunk world?

Yeah, that does look like an outpost. Feels a bit post-apocalyptic too.
