My best wreck to date
« on: April 30, 2011, 12:43:52 AM »

My best wreck to date.

Number 2 of a series of 3 I'm working on for Early War, 1 on its side, 1 with a burned cab and 1 extra done. Again using the very cheap Heller Blitz, with scratchbuilt remains for the bed and Dremel trimmed wheels for that nice burned effect. Fire was used in harming the model.

That is rather special. Maybe do a how to for the next one?

I don't think that that would be a problem, but the third model in the series is a Blitz on its side with spilled cargo and otherwise unharmed. There will be a same series of burned Zil trucks suitable mangled later in the year though (if all goes according to plan)

What part of the how to would you be interested in? The build part or the painting part?

When the third is done I'll do a few scenic shots, then press on with the rest of the Early War build.
