I hope that bug is out of scale. You guys have some odd ones.

hi all
chuck that is not a plastic bug just a very beautiful 4 wing hoverer.
ray that particular product is made by the english company-wills.they make a variety of styles.it is expensive for what it is quite small packets but easily obtained.another supplier is slaters on line.better value again good for outside use,
another source is art supplies and craft shops
kind regards kim

Very nice- but not the sort of place to have a picnic or have smoke !!! - definitely got atmosphere with loads of inspiration

Kim, Excellent! But wouldn't want to wander or wade around there very long. You sure that giant 4 wing hoverer didn't hatch in there someplace?

Looks like it smells bad! -- Russ

hi all thanks russ chuck barney and bill i would hate to think what is living in there the model has taken so long it would now be really big. a while ago i had a major problem see the photo.
.
when i was pouring the top coat of resin to darken it there was a  reaction-the surface bubbled.this would not be too bad if you wanted a bit of texture but really looking at it, it was a  big mess.there must have been a reaction with the dye.i have had them  a long time, past there used by date,or the surfaces must have been dirty or something else.
but after a really tense weekend i made it into a finish that i am really happy with in doing so re working the frount that helped the rust affect.
you can the result in the rust photo.
kind regards kim

It looks fine: Toxic and disgustingly polluted. Perfect for the scene. -- Russ

Kim,

that looks extremely poisonous!
About the bubbles (I just realized that your latest post shows the former step ... ::)): Maybe it's a nice base for giving them some kind of foam appearance with sponge applied opaque white?

Cheers,
Volker
