Thank you lads. Some progress with the base. I originally tried AK swamp gel for wet patches but I wasn't happy with the look, so more moss and leaf litter... Seems to do the job. Next up is a start on the figure... that'll be my holiday project. ![](https://i.ibb.co/HGfHMH1/IMG-20191223-122913.jpg)

That looks really awesome! The moss growth and vegetation looks really good. Regarding the tires----if the vehicle had been sitting there that long would the tires still hold air and retain that shape?
Best wishes,
Ian

I saw where ICM is getting ready to release various Chernobyl sets in 1/35th that come with a vehicle and figures.

Great diorama. Shows the grim reality of such a disaster. I think the figure will set it off very nicely.

That's really beautiful! Great work with incorporating the vegetation into the scene and the figure ties it all together.
