Amazing Ron

[yak face]

Ron mate , I'm struggling to try and convey how good this is and how much i like it without swearing!!! Its been a real privelege to watch this grow from a pizza base and stirring sticks to the miniature world we see now. As Joe says , when you look at it you become immersed (bit like the poor old leutnant!!) and can totally imagine being there, a mark of a true masterpiece . See , I did all that without swearing , Great ****ing build mate ! cheers tony

Stunning Ron, you are indeed a talented modeller! The realism is mind boggling,if I had come across the pics randomly I would have thought they were actual real full scale scenery !

Simple story conveyed excellently through a thoroughly fantastic show of modelling excellence. Stunning.

Yet another stunning work of art Ron. Your work never fails to impress me

[Guest]

When I saw the first pics, the word stunning came to mind. Then I started seeing it from everyone else, so I will say "fan-freaking-tastic"!!! If I didn't know that that was a model, I doubt that I would realize it (not for a while). I am just floored beyond words. You could knock me over with a feather....

I've been away for a week on a coach with the 'Blue Rinse Brigade', so I've not been near a computer.....

I've just signed in and was having a look at what I've missed (Loads, as usual!), when I came across this resurrecting itself from the vaults.....

Thanks for the great comments everyone, I appreciate them all.

I hope those who followed the building of this found some useful tips, and perhaps even some inspiration to have a go at a diorama.....

Finally, apologies to those who have seen this thread before.

Taking it to another level. Top class

Saw this today (?) at Cosford Model show, looks stunning in the flesh, cant believe it didn't place, quite a few ehmm 'dodgy' entries if truth be told. No accounting for judges, reminds me of my camera club days

[Guest]

Wow. I missed the build thread for this one, so when I saw the pics I thought you'd made a brilliant 1/35 scale dio. Reading on I realised it's 1/72, and all scratch built! Just amazing.

I totally agree. It has a lot going on. Looking at the photos again they don't have any overall appearance of being a model. (Which is I suppose the same as saying it looks realistic.) At the top of the quality scale.
