Superb build and weathering. Love the rust and grime, it looks very realistic. My only comment would be suggest that it could be dustier to blend with diorama base. Still think it’s great though.

Thank you for the comments. I'm really glad you liked it.
Maybe next time I will find another more African magazine cover)
