LRDG Chevrolet

Post by AgentG »

This is the 1/35th scale Tamiya kit. I added Value Gear stowage and painted this one with mostly Floquil enamels. It has sat around for at least 3 years until Steve at Value Gear released the set for this kit. Thanks Steve!

Some very brave men rode into the vast desert wastelands to spy on Rommel. They stayed out weeks at a time usually spending more time and energy digging themselves out.

I used a generic case and added the desert base from DAS clay. The rock is plaster from a Woodland scenics mold. All that is painted in craft store acrylics. I still need to dust up the wheels and truck.

Nicely done. And I'm another fan of Value Gear.

Awesome! I've always love that camo pattern :D Both the stowage and and the sand on the base look incredible! That did you use for the sand?

Thanks guys!

ForbesHutton - I really like what Steve's doing with his product.

Panzermeister 36-I spread some DAS air drying clay on the base then added some fine aquarium sand onto that with a mixture of white glue and water.
