Hi Guys,

have just finished 1 72 scale destroyed bridge now calling it over the edge you can see why. First a big thanks to everyone who helped me destroy the bridge and Daves silly idea that worked hope you all like it , as you can see its a german armoured scout car (train ) just about to go over the edge or tottering on edge, well that crew member wants to get off in a hurry. Rocks were a first for me and dont look to bad.


Any comments or questions welcome

This is amazing, the detail of the rocks, woodwork, grassing and the model is top drawer build.


Only issue for me the angle of the train scout, it could be a dynamic still showing going over the edge, but as a static scene it looks too far forward, like it is teetering. The weight of the thing with no rear cars, for me, would mean it would just plunge.


It is just my opinion and does not detract from the superb work and skill Barry.

Good point Si but after opening door and positioning the guy ready to jump it did not allow me to have car further foreward ( had to give the guy a chanch to reach the tree !!!

Damn good work Barry........ I like that a lot. Superbly executed, great idea ......... I think matey getting out the side door has left it a bit late ....... I didn't realise this was 1/72....... Cracking job matey.

The figure jumping is an excellent detail, he give an "action" look at the scene!


You said: "Don't look bad..." are you joking?!? Those rocks look great!! The colour is simply perfect!!!


Great and original scene

As above, fantastic imagination and work. Pat on the back for you, love this.

I like that a lot Barry! That looks like it's tipping just as that guy jumps! The commander ain't gonna make it, but he shoulda kept a better eye on what was in front of him!

amazing work mate. A very inspired dio. An odd though came to me while viewing it-the guy jumping out of the side door must have spider-man reflexes to get out so quick!
