Asuka/Tasca Luchs Complete!

Moving forward, I sculpted the foam with a hot knife, added the balsa around the foam edges and spread a layer of DAS air drying clay. Waiting for it to fully cure before the next steps. Thanks for coming by!

Thanks guys! Wow, it got quiet in here all of a sudden. I recently found a video online about making pine trees, so I had to try it. Here's what the weekend brought.

Checking the fit.

Trees were just mocked up to check the fit and placement. On to the groundwork! I used several colors and sizes of turf and static grass to build up the field.

I used the actual tank and also the vinyl kit tracks to mash the grass where the tank traveled. There's going to be further adjustments prior to setting the tank for good.
