The other day I passed an abandoned Chevelle sitting next to an old collapsed house and immediately thought of this. You really replicated the rust and corrosion so well.

Thanks very much Ian  , that was the kinda look i was heading for rather than a scrapyard theme.....just sitting on a bit of private scrub land waiting for a `Discovery Channel` bloke to drive by and rescue it |

Amazing work on this, Boots. I love the weathered effect on the windshield. Extremely realistic.

Now that is good. Did you scratch build the fence?
I do like the plant growing up through the engine compartment.
And, why have you never done a scene before? Seems to me you are a natural!!!

That really looks cool. Nice work.
Have you ever watched a YouTuber named Vice Grip Garage or Junkyard Digs?
Some of their content is where they go and get vehicles that have been parked for a decade or more and get them to run...hopefully to drive them back home. Your Falcon looks the part.
