It's so dusty I'm afraid to go near it (sinus problems and all that jazz). I just saw Mad Max Fury Road and am inspired to go finish it BUT all that dust.

They do add some nice colour to it don't they!<br /><br />How'd you go with the tracks? Where they joined. I couldn't see from the angle of the photo's. Did you manage to separate them?<br /><br />I really like the overall weathering you gave it too. The yellowish wash really works quite well. The only thing I think you might want to consider doing is giving the tracks/wheels a quick hit with a metallic dry-brush? They look a little too weathered IMHO. But it's a minor critique on an otherwise awesome vehicle...congratulations on an epic build, finally finished :)<br /><br />Top stuff Axiom!
