A finishing touch - Clayton's diorama for Takom's 35th scale M29 weasel in Pt.III of his video series.

We have a treat for you in the culmination of the M29 Weasel, MiniArt's Ardennes road signs & lots of smart figure & diorama work in Clayton's video showing how these elements came together to make a neat scene. We take a look at them in his story today...

The finish of this story has many steps along the way. From peview, to build review, to painting & weathering, to today, where we make a snowy base to suit the scheme we have chosen for this little vehicle.

Today: A finishing touch - Clayton's diorama to suit Takom's 35th scale M29 weasel in Pt.III of his video series.
In todays video I’ll take you through the steps after the paint and weathering of the Weasel. Now, to make a snowy base, with the help of a hand-made diorama base and MiniArt's Ardennes road signs set.
I will leave most of the story to the video which tells the tale,  but in the video tosay you will see me paining a figure from the Bodi to match the scene, and using MiniArt's Ardennes road signs set  to add to my bse and the compleated Weasel. 
Check out the video to tell the story of how I finished all of these elements to make something a lot more that I could have hoped for at the start of this Weasel project...
Big thanks to The Modelling News as well as Takom & MiniArt for the opportunity to review the kits. Stay tuned for the my next project, coming soon...
