novadose71 Posted May 20, 2007 Posted May 20, 2007 This is a club diarama built by the Winnebago Auto Modelers for the Milwaukee NNL in 05. We do one every year and I have a blast and learn a ton of new things from the other guys in the club. The surfboard base and all structures are scratch built and figures and other miscellaneous items we get from anywhere and everywhere. I have more pics but wasn't sure how big I could make this post. Enjoy and Keep on modelin'
crispy Posted May 20, 2007 Posted May 20, 2007 That is the coolest diorama I have ever seen! WOW! Novel idea to put it on the surf board! WOW! Chris

BIGTRUCK Posted May 21, 2007 Posted May 21, 2007 I seen this at NNL 13 in Milwaukee...it was awsome...a must see crowd pleaser..
novadose71 Posted May 23, 2007 Author Posted May 23, 2007 Some more pics. Hope you like them. Anyone know the limit for amount of pictures I can post on a thread before I get my hand slapped?
Jairus Posted May 23, 2007 Posted May 23, 2007 Nova, Rule of thumb is 4 or 5 pictures per post. The software shifts to a second page after so many posts but if each of those posts contain lots of pictures then it takes a long time to load. Hey, can I get you to post your name in the Signature Text box please? That is found in the Profile section and then will end each post you... ah, post? Thanks! By the way, love the dio!!! 5 thumbs up!
novadose71 Posted May 23, 2007 Author Posted May 23, 2007 Ok and yes ,already done(forgot to check the post it box), I'll call this a sig. test. I will get this eventually. I was just reading the image MOD (whatever that is) post ,I'll try it next time. Thanks. Are all those thumbs opposable?
Jairus Posted May 23, 2007 Posted May 23, 2007 Very good Rob! Welcome to the forum... you'll fit in nicely.
pepperdrumstix Posted May 25, 2007 Posted May 25, 2007 Totally Gnarly Dude!! Every part of this diorama is a perfect, from the cars to the people. I even noticed the white surf foam under the pier and the telescopes on the deck of the pier,the T-shirts for sale,nice touch, and the waves hitting the beach. I can almost smell the ocean and the suntan lotion looking at this diorama. Great job guys!!!!! Patrick

novadose71 Posted April 14, 2010 Author Posted April 14, 2010 (edited) Wow!! I don't get here very often anymore and didn't expect to see this one pop up again. Glad you guys like it. If you wanna see more of this one and our other club diorama's go to my Photobucket link, scroll down to the WAM folders and check them out. This years dio is in the Milwaukee NNL 18 folder towards the bottom of the list. I haven't had time to organize them into the Shiners Rods folder yet. http://s202.photobucket.com/albums/aa33/burninrob6/ BTW Kyle, we are out of the Fox Valley area. We are also hosting a contest at the Oshkosh Hobbytown on, I believe, May 8th. I should have a flier by tonight and will try to post it this weekend Thanks for lookin' and feel free to ask any questions you may have. Edited April 14, 2010 by novadose71
Sixties Sam Posted April 15, 2010 Posted April 15, 2010 Great idea for a diorama, and very well done! Amazing detail! Sam
dragmodeler Posted April 15, 2010 Posted April 15, 2010 Really nice looking Diorama. Our club (Buckeye Scale Auto Club) has a drag strip diorama we update and add to every year. I can't imagine doing a new one every year. BTW the cars look great too. Looks like a club theme build. Mark Harmon, Treasurer Buckeye Scale Auto Club (Columbus, Ohio)
charlie8575 Posted April 15, 2010 Posted April 15, 2010 Nice job on the diorama. I like the building, very realistic-looking. Charlie Larkin
High octane Posted April 15, 2010 Posted April 15, 2010 novadose71, I remember that display very well. The Winnebago Auto Modelers wow the crowd at the Milwaukee NNL EVERY year. A six member club that works very well together and all are excellent builders. Their displays NEVER fail to impress!
novadose71 Posted April 15, 2010 Author Posted April 15, 2010 Thanks for the very good words Nick. Being a member of WAM is the best thing to happen to my modeling. I feel very lucky to be a member, and I am glad they were persistant and drug me into their circle. And you are right, we do work pretty well together. Thanks again.
kyledr330 Posted April 15, 2010 Posted April 15, 2010 (edited) Thanks Rob, I'm heading off to Germantown's Hobby Town this Saturday, they are hosting a model car contest also. Edited April 15, 2010 by kyledr330
