Many thanks for your kind comments, Bob and Zac!

I spent last evening playing around with pigments and she is starting to look the thing.







Cheers

I misread and thought you said "playing around with pigeons"  ;D That would be a whole new level of madness, even for you!

KiwiZac:  ;D ;D ;D
Edo: right, the terrain is way too smooth, so I added some debris and so on.

I will have to rework the helmet, though, since currently it looks rather like a land mine. :)

Since Flirt II was deployed in the Battle of Cambrai 1917, I will have to add a lot of moisture to the base as well.

Yesterday I added some moisture using strongly diluted gloss coat, now I will leave it to cure and add some mud and puddles.

Ok, here is the final result, not perfect but I can live with it. Next time I will use a bit of artistic license - the wet look is historically rather correct, but I liked the dusty look better. Nevermind, I still have a Male in my stash. :)

Magnificent work, Ondra!! What a stunning little tank! I thoroughly enjoyed following your build and the end result is every bit as gorgeous as I expected. Bravo!

This is a very beautiful diorama Ondra. What an excellent detailing in this tiny scale!

I'd like to see it sitting next to William Adair's Royal Aircraft Factory Fe2b...
