VW van- dust and rust
I started the final weathering stage using pigments.
Some rust, and dust have been applied.
Im thinking of leavin the windows as they are now, without the wiper marks.
I also constructed the street section. I wanted the tarmac to be in the bad condition, with lots of pot holes and loose stones. I made the mounting point underside, so i can fix the base on the tripod for pictures.

VW van- Build stage complete
I finished building the van.
All the remaining details have been added i.e. the roof rack fixings, the two screws on the headlights, the four buffers on the loading door, and just to make it little bit different i added couple of mudflaps.
All is left now is to dust the van a little, and add some pigment rust here, and there.
Hope you enjoy the update, as i made the pictures using new to me technique of focus stacking.

VW van- roof rack clutter
To make the roof rack look busy i made the power tool metal case,
and gin wheel from scratch.
For the rope i used the egyptian cotton rigging cord (o.6mm) from Modelling Timbers.
With the ladder dry fitted.
I dont know if i like it with ladder, or without.
