UNBELIEVABLE!!!!!!! This is definitely one of the VERY BEST dios I've ever seen! I can't add enough !!!!!!!'s

If it wasn't for the small base, it could easily be real.

WOW!

Thanks guys. BTW, this dio took home GOLD at the IPMS Stockholm in March. So I am very proud of this one.

Very nice. I must agree about the tires. Very good and realistic looking.

[tiking]

Thanks. Much appreciated.

Yeah, what Ed said. The whole dio. is great but the shredded tires knocked me out.

[KHamilton]

Those tires really caught my eye, too, along with the other perfect details....like lettering on the container, etc.

VERY nice job. Congratulations.

That's amazing!,If you could share some tips on how you did the tire that would be great.

Thanks guys. Austin, . I search through my Misc. box and came across some very thin cable strands I had saved to use for plumbing. The rubber tire was cut using my dremel. Then I placed the strand of cable strands into that area. It is really a 123 history. It took me 3 mins.

I updated this dio sometime ago. i wanted the elongated shape as I wanted it to fit on a shelve. Nothing new but the shape and arrangement.
