by Charles King on December 31, 2020 · in Automotive · 24 ≡

This is a forklift I made for my present diorama I am working on at the moment. I used, the sponge technique, as well as, a sharp X-to knife for the scuffed and scratches areas. I then used light dust, and dark brown colors from Citadel. [...]

My last build for 2020: Armored Austro-Hungarian Romfell car, 1915. Only a few prototypes were built because some generals and the emperor Franz Joseph I thought that thing would scare the horses during a war... So better to push your [...]

by Andrew H on December 31, 2020 · in Aviation · 24 ≡
