discussion Rest and Relaxation

[Guest]

Ok so this is a diorama that came together for a local model contest in Albany NY. Whats worth mentioning is the Krupp truck I had purchased on ebay came without the tree of parts for the bed. I got my money back from the seller. Then I sat and looked at it for a while and said to myself I can scratchbuild a bed and make this work. Popsicle sticks made the bed of the truck and the radio shack. Hope you guys like it.

funny I used about a quarter of them then Sara did a school project with the rest. I guess I owe you a bag from the dollar store.

 

[grumpa]

They were from Walmart and they cost $1.29

You'll get the ones from the dollar store and like it!!!!!!!!!!!

I actually signed in to look at my pics of this one. Sadly its no longer with me. Damn cats!!!!!! This time they knocked over the whole picture frame base and destroyed the whole thing. Well Im finally layed off from work again til spring so hopefully I will be able to resume my position at the desk and finish a few things I still have in the works, and possible get to starting the other projects I have.

That is very very good Chris.... A superbly put together dio.... and some great scratch building........ Everything is there in that scene. Well thought out and executed.........


.......... It just needs one little thing......... A scratch built "wurst" in the frying pan


A very well deserved "Great Build".
