  2. Thank you. Thank you David. Yes. Satisfaction guaranteed. Most definitely. Glad you approve. My thanks. :)
  3. I was giving the task of building a industrial truck dock/bay diorama for a customer, and this is what I put together. The buildings were made from xps pick and blue foam. The doors were made from styrene. The HVACs and lighting fixtures were 3D modeled by a friend using photos of real flood lights I found on the internet. The conduits were scratch built. The dimensions are 100 x 60cm. I have painting of the dock numbers and attaching of the batteries to the different light fixtures. --------------
  4. Too kind of you to write such uplifting words. Thank you for that.
  5. Oh yeah!! Although, we did live very near the Atlanta at that time, he kept it vert prestined.
  6. Well done. My dad had a blue one during the 80's.
  7. My thanks a appreciation Steve. Glad you consider my work worthy. :)
  8. Hi Dave. Thank you for your response. Time done on this isn't so bad. Maybe a total of 30-40 hrs, give or take. I rarely time my builds, so this is just a rough guess. Due to the amount of detail I can understand why folks think it would take me a long time. But I do things in way that is quick and straight forward without getting to iver complicated. I am not a fan of long drawn out processes. I always like to get started on something new. So I tend to get things done quicker. HeHe!!!! Good one. Thank you kindly for your uplifting words.
  9. HeHe!!!! Yep! Lots of details. Glad you approve. Thanks. HaHa!!! Thank you kindly.

  13. Thanks Jim.
  14. Thank you David. Will be looking forward to your build.
  15. I've just added the figures to the dio. Again, I am no figure painting expert, but I always try to give it my utmost best. The figures were bought ready made, but I repainted them differently and because the original painting was not to my liking. I wanted to better the face and skin texture than what the original had. The dog has not been repainted(will do that later), although, I added it just to give the overall appeal to the diorama.
  16. Thank you kindly David. I don't remember, exactly where I got it, but it is this kit; https://www.super-hobby.se/products/Suzuki-Jimny-JA11-5.html.
  17. Thank you Mark.
  18. Thank you David.
  19. I've updated this dio by adding different shades of rust to break the monotone look of the junk in its entirety. I've also added steel rods as a load on top of the Suzuki. I've also added other smaller details here and there and add more interest to an otherwise mute theme. added more photos of different junk piles from different sites around the world. Added a name tag made out of foam. If you've seen the first load of photos I put up, you will then see the small changes I have made. I will add the figures as soon as I have done painting them. Thanks for looking.
