The wife didn't let me have the room for display but now that she's passed on I just might build another some time.
Kind words appreciated very much.

If you're not building more dios Tony, you're wasting a lot of talent!

Dave I only did this one to see if I could. I've had three heart attacks and my doctor told me my heart is so weak a four one will end it all.
I had a large stash of models I wanted to build and after the doc said that I built them all I think and I have chest of drawers full of unfinished or unpainted models.If I should be so lucky enough to get them all finished only then would I start a dio career.:smiling: I'm 75 years old and didn't expect to live this long,heck I thought i would leave Vietnam in a box in 1969 and i'm still here so who knows.

Your praise of talent is unexpected,Thanks very much.

Beautiful Tony just beautiful and please don't stop at that. Simple yet well composed.

Don't you worry about PB...over here you just place from your own PC stash. I've learnt my lesson and will just back up on my external drives.

Cheers,
Richard

Thanks so much guys.

My idea was to give the viewer something to think about and question what was the situation was here.
They're out in the middle of nowhere were they lost,getting info from one or the other as to where the enemy position are,making a plan of attack or maybe just a visit to chew the fat or where did he get that sweater,maybe a Christmas present from home.

Well in any case it was fun to build and i'm really happy that it was received so well.
Thanks again folks

Tony,

A very simple and beautifully executed scene. the little splash of colour is a nice touch.

Now who would have thought that Uncle T actually did a diorama in the past! Pleasant surprise to see Tony, and looking very good there!

Hi Tony
That is really nicely observed. Ground colour and texture is top notch, as are the builds....
Great stuff, don’t stop there.....
Cheers
