I am finding that even small dios such as this are much more rewarding than a stand-alone aircraft. On 12/7/2022 at 3:54 PM, HubertB said: Well done Gary !

Peterpools Posted December 7, 2022 Posted December 7, 2022 Gaz Absolutely so. The small dio sets the scene for time and place and tells a story. 4 1
DocRob Posted December 8, 2022 Posted December 8, 2022 Proof provided, Gary, this kit is buildable and you have done wonders with the painting and finishing. There are not so many builds, where you have the 'everything clicks' feeling. Painting and riveting blend perfectly, as do the figures. The recliner will be your signature item soon . Cheers Rob 4 1
CANicoll Posted December 8, 2022 Posted December 8, 2022 Gary, AWESOME work on everything! The plane, the figures and the diorama - just beautiful! Love the chair but your figures are terrific. A lovely build all the way around. This is going into your LHS? They will be overjoyed to get it! Chris 4 1

I'll probably sit on it for a while before I do anything. My LHS doesn;t seem to have any display space for stuff that isn't for sale. 4
