DaveInTheHat Posted September 25, 2008 Author Share Posted September 25, 2008 Yes, Patti is my wife. When my dioramas are finished they get put in a box and stuffed in a closet. I'm a little short on space and I also have 3 nosy cats. Hopefully one day I'll be able to put all my dioramas together and maybe throw down some railroad tracks.

Mike Whatshisname Posted September 25, 2008 Share Posted September 25, 2008 Nice Job Dave! The scene really looks "alive" when you place the cars in natural positions like turning into the parking lot and staggered on the highway. And the fact that the cars are not placed exactly 1 inch apart in the lot just makes it a natural, eye appealing scene... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Whatshisname Posted September 25, 2008 Share Posted September 25, 2008 oh yea, BTW, I DO love your signage!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry P. Posted September 26, 2008 Share Posted September 26, 2008 That's quite an eclectic mix of cars in the parking lot. Patti's place apparently draws the car collector crowd!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KarDude.com Posted March 14, 2010 Share Posted March 14, 2010 Beautiful diorama! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sixties Sam Posted March 14, 2010 Share Posted March 14, 2010 Nice work, Dave! I hadn't seen this thread before. I'm amazed at the detail you can make in HO scale! By coincidence, I am working on a 1/25 scale diner right now. It's about 18" long. The diorama will have a parking lot full of mid 1950's cars. Here's a pic of it under construction.

David G. Posted October 13, 2010 Share Posted October 13, 2010 Is it a Pinto or a Bobcat? I thought it was a Bobcat. Not that there's much of a difference. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
george 53 Posted October 13, 2010 Share Posted October 13, 2010 With the tailights set like they are, it's a Mercury Bobcat. :) VERY nice Doi! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
