Thank You, Villiers, I am happy you like the result. The decision to go for the uniform makeover came from the wish to display the trunk opened. I thought, it needed a reason to be opened on the open road, and so the refueling by jerry can was plausible. The finish-line of this project is in sight now, I enjoy it very much to show my progress here on scalemates. Have a nice sunday!

Hello, Ian, thank you very much! It is not wax paper, but a random plastic bag, that came with a pair of shades. The surface feels a bit rubberish, like foam rubber. With this simple hobby glue "Pritt" it worked out fine.

Great ingenuity with the winter clothing. It came out very well. Also love the camo colour scheme on the Hummer. A lovely winter dio

Thank You very much! I really appreciate your words. The idea of this winter scene is taken from a NATO training operation in 1987, where the USMC was testing the norwegian winter conditions. The operation was called "Cold Winter", well, obviously. I am happy, that you like the winter clothing, tbh, one "Marine" hasn´t made it in time for the pictures, but I will make some better detail pictures at the weekend.

Its nice that there is a little story behind it. I'm always drawn to winter scenes and the snow and ice effect is very good. Winter is here 🙂

It felt refreshing to make it small but very freezy, while temperatrures rose outside 🙂 I am interested to try the AK Micro Balloons as well! In terms of road/ driving effect to how snow and ice look like, I still want to learn a lot. Many thanks!

Hello, Neuling, many thanks for your kind comment. Well, with all this good and even perfect work around here I am sure to strive for more patience and more detail cleanliness....but of course it is the fun, that makes things wow and the details from scratch, that always update the challenge 🙂 thanks again!!!

Hello, Mathias, thank you very much! The snow finish is "NOCH 08760 Snowflakes"....very nice looking, but because of static attraction as by-catch ALL over the place... 🙂 🙂

I love the open trunk with supplies being pulled out. The winter effects are amazing. This is an impressive debut.

Thank You very much! Well, from my understanding, this camo scheme must have been of a temporary nature only, with all black of the original scheme being touched up with a kind of whiting/ chalk. Even more, I am happy that you like it. I just found the reference material, that I have set to the album from pg. 41-44, by chance, to be honest, but I instantly fell in love with this camo variation.

Hello, Spanjaard, thank you very much! Winter is for sure a future dio topic, again: I really enjoyed making it "cold" 🙂
