Box Diorama with a Soviet Self-Propelled Gun SU-122

[langy71]

Absolutely brilliant dio John, that welding flash really gives it a sense of action as the guys repair the damage,

I'm not sure a 'Double Dogs' would serve it enough recognition,... you need a re-designed award for setting the standard for any dio...
well done indeed..

That, John, is absolutely brilliant. How on earth you're gonna follow that I just don't know.

Cheers Jim, but I do have some ideas ! Shadow Box dio's are compelling .

John, not much to say has been left after the previous comments.
I can only subscribe what has already been said adding just a "I LIKE IT!!"

Great comments guys, thank you for following this long build, comments like that certainly lift the mo jo.
What's next ? Well to start with to the amasement of Christine and no doubt the Tidy Bench Club Chairman aka Jim along with fellow members I plan to have a clean up in the cave !
This rare occurrence happens from time to time, I might find the vinyl floor monsters lair and even find that tool box ! What will come to light is always an exciting thought
Then a search of the stash for the next dio, hopefully I would like to manage a set of tracks !!! Now that would be a great achievement

That's what worries me Chris, will I ever find things again, you know things that only you know where they are .Fear not , tidy and clean it might be, but certainly not tidy for long .

Well I hope it does well at the show. Thanks for the support along the way and the double dogs !

Outstanding work John, the video really shows how the arc welding adds atmosphere & the details in the diorama make it something special. Definately worthy of a 'Dogs' award.

 

[BattleshipBob]

So sorry John, I should not have missed this! what a display of the model makers art!!! Absolutely superb!
