  • How to build 1:35 scale Battle of the Bulge #Ardennes Offensive diorama. Figures and Sherman Tank are from #Tamiya kits.
    See other video #tutorials for more of my work.
    This is a simple "how to" to get great results quick.
    All paints are acrylic based.

    Your dio is awesome, nice story telling and great step by step process. Rattle can sprays always attack and melt insulation foam. If you want to stop that effect, paint a coat of mod Podge on the foam before you spray paint it. Thanks for sharing, take care and keep up the good work my friend.

    Thats a crackin looking diorama, top work 👍........just a tip about the foam, give it a coat of Mod Podge or diluted PVA to seal it in before using an aerosol can, it'll act as a barrier to stop the paint melting the foam 👍....or just use acrylic paint 😉

    The only thing I’d say was wrong is your window the frame would sit right to the edge & have a sill to let water drip off & run away, the inside would get finished off to a nice finish, I used to fit windows & doors so sorry about nitpicking but it makes a difference. I noticed you changed the thickness of the actual widow frame which is more correct than the first. Otherwise awesome work, I’ve subscribed to your channel as I think the rest of your work is really really good

    • @ctscalemodellinguk
      @ctscalemodellinguk  5 місяців тому

      Not really, you could sand the surface of the chip board. I sometimes add watered down pva glue to seal aswell. I have had shrinkage on plastic bases and thinner boards but no issues on this. . Thanks for watchin and asking a question.

      given the stickiness and amount of that clay its a non-issue. Any disruption or accident that violent - the clay adhesion will be the least of the problems. Sometimes practicality should be allowed to breathe.

    Everything I say is not solely to criticize you, but to point the mistakes you should avoid in the future:
    * plastic ejection marks are visible on the hatch.
    * tracks on the tank are T48 type - they have rubber surface, not metal.
    * track marks on the ground are from different type T54.
    * track marks on the ground do not match the direction of tracks on the tank (opposite direction).
    * dry dust on tracks does not match the damp earth on ground.
    * soldiers have very clean shoes and clothes.
    * ruined walls have straight cut lines, like they were damaged with laser guns. You could improve it by cutting in staircase pattern.
    * you could imitate the glass on binoculars with a gloss varnish.
