PatW Posted February 10, 2023 Posted February 10, 2023 Superb! All I've got to say is 'OOPS'. I've nearly done that a few times! I was working as a temp at a warehouse and after training they let me loose with a fork lift truck. 'Pat' they said 'unload that pallet off the back of the small Luton van', a small box van in the UK. I didn't realise that the amount of stuff on the pallet was higher than I had lifted the roller shutter door on the van. I put the forks under the pallet started to reverse, caught the roller door and pulled it out of both side channels creasing the alloy badly! Very OOPS, first day! The warehouse manager came out from his office onto the yard smiled and shook my hand! The van was old and he couldn't justify the cost of a newer one, so as the damage would cost of fixing would cost more than the value of the van, they could have a newer one at last! So going from about to get the sack to a cheer from the warehouse staff! 1

Bugatti Fan Posted April 1, 2023 Posted April 1, 2023 Lovely humorous well executed little vignette. The general model build is very good as well as the figure painting. The 2 guy's expressions say it all.
Straightliner59 Posted April 10, 2023 Posted April 10, 2023 Poorly-done figures can ruin an otherwise fine diorama. Yours are always fantastic! I love your work!
Bainford Posted April 14, 2023 Posted April 14, 2023 Charles, I'm guessing you have sold your soul to the devil somewhere along the way. I can think of no other reason for you absolutely impeccable and authentic weathering. Your dioramas are always such a pleasure to check out. So much fine detail. So much realism. Even successfully capturing the emotions on the faces of the two guys. No small feat, that. The face of the driver is just perfect. So impressive. Excellent work.
