Works in progress 2013: 4...

...more 1/35 sci-fi. This is a Junk Tank Rock model from Japan and very difficult to find, if at all, in the UK. It comes with a driver (I've swapped the head) and I'll be adding a second figure (this from Paulo Parente's Dust range) in a small vignette.

...Antenociti's Warthog ADV - not a lot different from the earlier post but it has been matt-varnished and had a tan filter to begin the 'weathering' process

...Antenociti's Firefly - after decaling but before a coat of matt varnish
























Works in progress 2013: 1...

...another Secret Weapons 6x6. Base, decals and first filter (tan)

WIP: Post Apocalyse trooper and armoured 'Suit'...

Trooper almost finished apart from his rucksack and some detail painting (he'll be 'weathered' at the same time as the 'suit') - the suit has a base coat (upper left weapon-arm and hatch will be painted seperately)
