The seats started to get upgraded. I put wide 3M masking tape onto the surface, pressed into the crevices with a toothpick, and cut the edges with a #14 blade.
Almost finished the mud, only addig some dense mix to the wheel arches, and we're done (apart from the wheels, but I leave them out for now [need the tyres for creating pattern onto the diorama surface])
1/35 civilian vehicles aren't in abundance, and the best for this purpose was the 2-door variant from the Meng set. I wanted to open the doors, and the 4-door seemed too modern, albeit I can't specify the year or the place (somewhere in the former Soviet Union) the diorama takes place. The first few steps were quick, but recently I got stuck, my muse left me it seems... well, here's the story so far.
