Tons of details there, but hard to read.

[Dr. Cranky]

Yes, Jim, I wish I spoke Japanese . . . but the pictures tell a thousand words, as they say.

[Foxer]

Just use Google to translate it Copy and paste the URL into Translate Web Page and pick Japanese to English. Wish I could give you a one click way but the translated page link doesn't work directly.

that's about the best way I can describe it

[Dr. Cranky]

Rick, thanks for the new emoticons. LOL. Yes, this fellow is a fabulous model/diorama builder. You can tell these Japanese builders have a very strong sense of composition and color.

Cool, yes, there's some amazing work being done in other countries . . . and Japan is certainly way at the top.

[Roger U]

Awesome for sure. Dr Cranky thanks, ...I think, for showing us these amazing modellers. The problem is my work is nowhere near this level but, it is nice to see what can be done and get new ideas. Thanks again for finding and showing these models.

[Sam Cates]

That is freakin' sweet, but what are all thos squiggly lines and dots?

[Dr. Cranky]

Glad you folks enjoyed it.

[bsoder]

That is some beautiful work...flawless job on the details, ..my google chrome translates pages and it's kinda amusing sorta like those chinese directions that just dont translate well into english

[Harry P.]

That woodie wagon looks suspiciously like a Danbury Mint model...

I saw that one. No doubt, this builder is a master builder . . .

Work was titled - "Night before the Enjoyment"

While I'm sure there was quite a-lot of enjoyment the following day - possibly surfing - but the enjoyment is not specified.

[darquewanderer]

OMG. Fantastic. Love all of the details. Master Builder indeed.

[Dr. Cranky]

Glad and delighted you are all enjoying the work.

Doc - That's an awesome build. I love all the little details this Master Builder created on his diorama. That's a build to inspire any model builder, and it gives me ideas for future builds.

Thank you for sharing this beautiful build.
