Pakwagen Puma and display 1/72
Just air brushing on the primer for the majority of the parts.
Testing out a grey I mixed, don't have a premade German grey yet.
Beginning to color from the wheels up.
Main body finished.
Made the base for the diorama with a piece of cardboard and some chunks of Styrofoam to flesh out the dirt path I had in mind.
Added a layer of sculptamold with a handful of sawdust in the mix over the base to get things going, used the same red brown primer for the surface, and made a couple stones and rocks with the leftover plaster.
I made bushes with pieces of furnace filter, one would find it in Youtube tutorials for railroad trees, though they do work for bushes. Coated them with the same brown primer.
Often I make wire trees for future projects and dioramas, these can get tedious to make.
This is a finished bush, just sprayed it over with spray adhesive and added dark green flock.
Okay, the static grass looks fair thankfully; the problem with it was that after 2 rather pricey static grass applicators (noch and Woodland Scenics), a cheap chinese one off eBay did the trick.. somehow the noch just made the grass fall flat, and woodland was pretty weak even for a wired applicator.
Anyway, applied the stones, covered up the road with some tape before applying the grass.

Added the same pieces of furnace filter to the wire tree branches and did the same process as the bushes.
Cheers.

Very nice dio. Landscape looks terrific! Maybe a little bit of a weathering on the Pakwagen and it will be a little masterpiece. 👍
Just a little thing I've learned right today in a YT-video: Only the 234/2 you also have in your started list was called "Puma".
