Things are getting colder as we gone on...

I am working on buying US and German armor for my upcoming Bulge diorama!

Here is another sneak peak!

The German stuff is going to look more used then the Allied stuff.

Negative !!!

Keep it as is.

Snow on the tracks looks like the vehicle has covered fresh snow.

This limits diorama potential.

If you go with what you have it looks like the vehicle was on the move.

Plus I just don't like the look.

She looks great as is ,do not over do it.

Maybe you are right! I was going to try to make a little dirty snow with some woodland scenes snow and apply it sparingly to a few places like crew compartment, little here, little there.

But now that you mention it It would look better if it where not there. If one of these guys went on road or something I would imagine it would all get knocked off.

Oh, I thought where it was there in the snow was where it was going to be placed, yea the snow would melt off and fall off very quick on a road, it depends on where you want it on the dio. It looks great as-is!

I think it depends on the pictures available, i've seen ones with mud and snow, some just with the winter camo, no mud.

From my experience with fourwheeling over the years, we have started in the morning with no mud, just snow and yes it sticks to tires and wheels and as the day goes by it turns it in to a mush of mud and snow, so do I think any one depiction is right, you decide

flyboy_fx · Post by **flyboy_fx** » Fri Aug 12, 2011 5:19 pm

Yea, I will be adding some mushy dirty snow, no clean stuff.

Not alot either.

Okay Jnewboy, the US soldiers do not have Disintegrator rays. LOL

I have A German and US halftrack that I will try to incorporate into the Dio. Just to give any idea of the size, It will either be put in the bottom bunk bend (Once lil bro gets his room) or it will be on a table the size of a bed!
