Hi guys
I have now finished dio for my 1 72 bp 44 armoured train pics i posted a while back.

I built base in three parts to ease moving around, the moter bike (on rails) is a bit different (they were used on early armoured trains) watercrane is a dapol one altered to look more continental.crane is from a halftrack kit altered and swing buckets etc scratch built.

Please give me your comments if you wish ( this is only my second dio but am enjoying it).

Magnificent diorama Barry.

Very nice and different. All the set and the figures gives a nicely touch of naturally

The train looks very well painted, the camouflage is genial.

Well....in a few words, is a great build

Cheers Polux

PS:You will repeat another similar diorama, or will try a new thing?

and great detail to all even down to the hatch handles and rusty tracks, top job

Wow that is fantastic , if I hadn't of seen it on a table I would have thought that was 1/35 and you had got the scale wrong in the title

Magnificent job

 

[Gern]

Another excellent build Barry. Now if you put this on the same base as your Dora ......

Great stuff Barry, there is so much to see in that diorama. At first I thought it was a barge on a river!

 

[Lee W]

If you're looking to do more trains in 1/72, I did manage to find these:

Pricey 'cos they're resin but certainly some unusual subjects, and with your talents I bet you could come up with something good.

PS I did put this link in an earlier thread - apologies if you'd already found it.

[bazers]

Thanks all ,glad you like it.

got something similar in mind for soviet armoured train.

 

[PaulTRose]

very nice work indeed

imagine how long that would be if it had been in 1/35? (which is what i first thought when i opened the thread and then realised )
