.
Thanks very much Dave
Great job Andy, liking your figures particularly
Cheers Rob!...... Figures are always a tricky aspect for me,but i`m steadily improving my efforts i think
Evening Mr. Smiff,
Personally, I think you are being too hard on yourself. This is a very nice Diorama and you have done an outstanding job on it. The gardening is excellent, the figure placement and the layout is too. If anything, you forgot to add a lawnmower into the mix, but that's a moot point. Seriously Andy, this has come together really well and you should be proud of your work!!!....
If this is a scene in or around Normandy in '44, then the only negative thing I see, would be the air recognition flag on the 223. At this time the allies had air superiority and it wouldn't be used on a vehicle as it was a sure target if seen from the air....Again, a moot point too. Great work Sir!!!.............
Prost
Allen
Allen,Sir...... Thanks very much buddy,you`re making me blush here!!
The lawn mower is needed because I do have problems with the static grass applicator,can`t seem to get the basic idea sorted...... think i`ll return to rubbing a cheapy balloon on my bonce instead!!
As for thye figure placement,well,i have a slight admission on that...... i originally was going to put the Map holding officer,next to the Chap stood at the front of the Vehicle....... is was
RACHEL who looked at it,(She likes to take a keen interest on what i`m building
),and said..... "What about putting him back there instead?"..... I moved him back,and immediately thought,"Bugger,she`s right"
.
Good point re the Flag .... obviously you`re spot on,didn`t think of that at the time...... just thought "I`m adding one"!!!!
Andy
As the others have said, it has come out beautifully and I for one really like it! Very well done.
Andrew
Well Andrew,that`s very kind of you,glad you like it....... must admit,i`m rather happy myself!!
Hi Andy
That is definitely a diorama to my way of thinking and a very good one as well. It's very nicely composed and each element is skillfully done. You should be proud of this.
Jim
Thanks very much Jim
,i think it is too!! (A Diorama that is!!)....... Don`t know about "Proud of it",however,it`s another one that i don`t mind showing off........So i must be going in the right direction!
" Yes " the cry went up from the committee, the chair man was asleep until then having a light snooze. After a slap from Matron he came too and there was 100% agreement that it was indeed a Diorama and worthy of the .
