Nicely done, I like it

Lovely job :thumb2:

That is brilliant Paul. So much interest. At this small scale the scope is there for large dios and this is a perfect example. Possibly your best work yet.

Echoing what Jim said - many more opportunities for large, overall impression dioramas - very nice indeed Paul!

Very well done indeed. That's turned out beautifully. Lots to look at and top quality work on display.

It of interest how big is the base? The road looks around 3 ft in length.

Again, very well done.

Once again, we build individual vehicles and you build whole units. Super rendition of an emplaced position. Loads to look at, and generates a better understanding of how the elements of a unit interacted in combat. Great stuff.

 

[Steve Jones]

Beautiful work Paul. Well worth all the hard work. You have captured a moment in time really well

Thank you gentlemen.
Andrew, 51"X41". Inspired by a map in a novel, 'The 10,000', it started out as an exercise in different gardening processes, such as, concrete, hardtop, aggregate, raised dirt & sunken dirt roads/paths as well as meadow, dead-fall, bushes, & trees, thus the strange dimensions. Then it morphed into a photographic base to display models. Improvements have been made over the years as processes/skills have improved.

Bigger than I thought then. It really has turned out very well indeed and is a great display base!

Again very well done.

Sorry mate...
It'd just HAVE to be a large Steak or Peppery one ...
Cheese and Onion filling just ain't a proper Pasty !!

 

[minitnkr]

Didn't know they came w/steak, yum.

Couldn't agree more - an oxymoron like 'veggie' burger ... :upside:
