So life like, unbelievable build skills there Jim. This brings a whole new dimension to model building in my opinion.

The true grit! War is gore. (or at least it used to be).

The true grit! War is gore. (or at least it used to be).

No son , sadly it still is, just ask those poor Christians being tortured and murdered in the Middle East. It's the brutal and sadistic savages that get off easy


Yet we'll bring them in by the tens of thousands but turn a blind eye and shut the door on there innocent victims......Western civilization?...... don't make me laugh!

 

[Guest]

Wow!!!


No more comments needed.....

Thanks so much Alan, I love to use my imagination and try to convey some sort of resemblance to reality {as much as one can in 1/35 scale}.


Thing is I hate doing figures but there is no other way to breath life {or death} into a diorama. I try to bring some human emotion into my work so it can be more moving and


thought provoking. This one will be large and many faceted, only the tip of the ice burg protruding at the moment. What the heck, no time limits and I aint goin no wheres.


Cheers..........Jim

Thanks Monica, all will fall into place in good time.I Want to try and capture the irony and pathos of men not so far apart in their simple hopes and dreams but drawn into a horrible whirlwind of


violence beyond their feeble attempts to resist. .............Jim

 

[grumpa]

Excellent work on the tanks, Jim.

Thanks Ron, much appreciated...............Jim

 

[grumpa]

Took a couple of days off but got some work done on gun, glued it down to cardboard {old model box} I think it's easier this way as it keeps subject all together and can easily be added to diorama


later on
