Tractorman810 Posted November 13, 2011 Share Posted November 13, 2011 coloured dust eh mark, who is that by then?? often thought about weathering a few bits, but worry about it spoiling the models as such ,like the combines , Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
david_scrivener Posted November 13, 2011 Share Posted November 13, 2011 coloured dust eh mark, who is that by then?? often thought about weathering a few bits, but worry about it spoiling the models as such ,like the combines , Looking at the whole model/toy old/new figure/vehicle/soldier collector/war gamer/diorama builder etc scene(s) I suppose it is a case of deciding which of these you really are, and prioritise and choose what to buy, and what to do with them, from there. I'm only an old toy collector, and so have never had to even think about such dilemmas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deere-est Posted November 13, 2011 Share Posted November 13, 2011 Love the weathering on the Ford, Mark. I'm like you, I just want stuff to look as real as possible really. The values of models are not high on my priorities as I buy only what I have used. There is no pleasure in looking at models on shelves for me without a story behind them, it makes collecting 'for the sake of it' and if it ever gets like that for me, I'll stop.
