I did some work on the resin hardstand for my Focke-Wulf Red 1--it's a "Just Plane Stuff" hardstand. The ground is an uneven airbrushing of alternating Pollyscale Mud, Pollyscale Dirt, and Tamiya Flat Earth Acrylic, the wooden planks were painted with ModelMaster enamel in several colors: Wood, Burnt Umber, Raw Umber, a little RLM02 Grau, and a little Flat Black. I subsequently gave the planks a dilute wash of burnt umber and lamp black oil paint, applied various weathering powders and pastels (dirt, earth, dust, soot, etc.), applied some streaking with dark gray pastels to represent tire marks, added some drips and stains with Gunze Sangyo "oil" acrylic (great stuff!), and, well, just generally weathered the heck out of it. I plan on adding various shades of mixed Woodland Scenic coarse turf to the earthen areas--going for yellowish green, burnt yellow, essentially a mixture so it doesn't look like a golf course, with grass growing up between the planks. It is supposed to be Germany in the spring, so the climate is likely to be damp. How does it look? Critique is more than welcome!
