Karl, good ole fashion stain....who would have thought. Great idea. Agree with the beach scene. You got all the fixins right there. Bryan, the tank looks perfect. Glad you like the valve. Keep the ideas coming. Lots and lots of goodies to draw yet.
Karl, just absolutely wonderful !! And was wondering what you were going to do with that tin bathtub. You put it to great use. If I were there, I would most assuredly toast your artistry !! Outstanding, --Paul
Thanks for all the comments guys. Mike the labels were resized in photoshop, they are just under 1/16"wx1/8"h. Printed on super thin paper (not the tissue) so there are minute/no edges.
As Brett likely guessed... I tried sugar, then salt for the ice, both were too small granules. I found some coarse sea salt in the cupboard, put some in a bottlecap and sprayed it with the clear enamel. while still clumpy and sticky I put it into the tub, made some holes with a tooth pick and then placed the bottles.
One of the empty gas cans here. I'm working on getting the galvanized steel color down. I mixed up a bit of light gray with adamantium and another bit with a lighter silver. sponged them on randomly together. Added a couple rust spots, a bit of dust and some spilled fuel. The only thing missing is the cap dangling from a chain.
Thanks for the great comments, Robert, Bryan, Kevin, Rusty, Tom, Joel, Chris and Mike. So rewarding to read you all and much appreciated.
Love the 'wet' look you got on the fuel spills Bryan, so authentic for something in use.
I'm going to enjoy seeing every ones results with these incredible details that SWSM (Brett) is shipping. I'm looking forward to getting and seeing some new ideas from you all as you show your work on these amazing details.
Thanks Chris, we're all here to help and learn from each other. I'm looking forward to see what others can do with these incredible parts from Brett/SWSM.
Agree with that Karl. I now have all of brett's 3D HO parts and just going to take my time as I'm currently working on the Scotia Supply build. Your 3D painted parts are insane!!..
lol Jim..have patience . I started the SW kits 2+ years ago and felt the same way at times. The great Folks here got me through it and still learning as we all are. We are all learning each day on this great hobby from all the great folks here. I still to this day mess up but find a way to fix and ask the folks here for suggestions. Hang in there and take your time

You're welcome here anytime Paul.
Drilled out one of the coke bottles, clear coated the INSIDE of the bottle for clarity and added a straw.
my guess: he plucked a bristle out of his toothbrush.
Keep up your great work!
i plan on using one of my wife's hairs for fishing line when i install the fishermen on my norton's diorama.
