Wonderful, Georges.

Thank you guys for your comments and for following the process.

This diarama has been the first and a fully project with a conversion and a scratchbuilt project, as the painting techniques as well.

The next projects should concern tracked tractors : a Track Marshall (Scaledown Models 1/32) and a Caterpillar Cat D4C (Wespe 1/32). Despite the overall quality of the resin kit, the Caterpillar needs a very hard work to reshape some parts and in adding a lot of new details on tha blade, the driving platform and a canopy will be fitted. Thanks John for inspiration !

The Track Marshall is already done because it has been painted before the John Deere with the sponge technique and this project will be published in a farm french magazine in September.

The Caterpillar project will be completed by a 1/32 car, a Pontiac GTO 1968. First car on the workbench in a Mad Max style !

After that, another tracked tractor based on a New Holland machine from Ros. This one will be rebuilt to cope with a futuristic diorama that will take some inspiration from Terminator and Matrix. Lot of work to do !

See you shortly. Georges

A truly lovely little scene, with all the parts wonerfully executed. I really like all the varied finishes an colors. Was grat watching this all come together.

The only real issue I have, is still with the oversaturation of the images....at least on my monitors.

Thanks Marc. You're right about some oversaturated pictures. I've changed fewer fittings on my camera and things seem to be better and more realistic. I still have to deal with my studio and new lights in a ''white box''. That will be done maybe in September now.

For the already done Track Marshall pictures, I will use Photoshop to minimize the oversaturated effects.

Georges.
