What does that aqueous black surfacer 1000 thin down with? Isn't aqueous a water based paint? Does it work well as a primer or does it peel off like the acrylic "primers"?

S M
I haven't tried to thin it with water although it is promised to work. I could airbrush mr.surfacer 1000 without thinning with my old 0,4mm needle airbrush, but in case I want to thin it I use Mr.Hobby Color Thinner 400 (turqoise colored bottle). I think this works very well as a primer. It sticks and it can be smoothed with sand paper.

Nice work so far, watching! I also use aqueous black surfacer. I thin it 50% with Tamiya's X20A, spray it with a 0.4 mm needle at 15-17 psi. It works a treat.

Swedish markings, I'm in on this project!

Skyhiker
Thanks for the info on the surfacer. I'm looking for alternatives to using heavy chemicals, and hopefully this will be an answer.

I am all eyes! I didn't even know we used the He-162.

It's been a while my friends. Have been working on 3 subjects at the same time since October. Stay tuned!

That looks like it's going to be a remarkable diorama.

Lenny Li
Some updates. First time using hot wire foam cutter. It turns out OK for setting up the base. Applied AK diorama paste on top.

Made the first mistake when using spray can - the paint or the agent reacts and corrodes any exposed foam surface. Had to reapply paste for the 2nd time to fix. Painting is quite straightforward, just Tamiya acrylic paint with airbrush.

Next step will be weathering.

Derek Ryan
Fantastic work, great job

Neuling
Very good looking vehicle! - Where in Africa stand these giantesses?

Are the figures of Indiana Jones and his dad next?

Your reference picture shows the Erechteion on the Acropolis in Athens.

Rui S
Great paint work so far. 👍
@Neuling yes They will leave soon to Afrika😉

Lenny Li
All done. Still working on my figure painting skills...

Hanno Kleinecke
Wow that looks superrealistic and lively ! Excellent modeling ! The only question that comes to me is - how did this Steyr manage to sink two subchasers and 10.600 tons of enemy shipping - in the african desert..... 🙂 No offence ! 🙂

Moritz Fentzahn
Great scene. Love it 👍

Neuling
Top paint work on the Steyr and the figures!👍

Konrad -
That is indeed a very very nice dio with all that details in it! Great presentation on this unique background!
Absolutely great 👍!

Rui S
Impressive work and dio. Great weathering on the Steyer, lot's of details. Very well done 👍

Spanjaard
it looks great. fantastic details. Interesting to use copies of the Caryatids as statues (as normal Caryatids they are quite over dimensioned, and the Afrika Korps was never in Athens, I think 😉 ) fantastic dio.

Dimitrios Balanos
Nice work, but Kariatides are located in Athens.
