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.

Looks good to me.

Just to be picky, the pics are a tad dark, maybe some better lighting!? ;)

:sad: I actually signed in to look at my pics of this one. Sadly its no longer with me. Damn cats!!!!!!:mad: 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.
