Silver Foxx Posted January 2, 2013 Posted January 2, 2013 Excellent work on all of these - they all look great.
Erik Smith Posted January 2, 2013 Posted January 2, 2013 Great models! I really like the Aston DBS. That B-26 diorama is really cool too - the perspective with the small ships, I have never seen that.
CJ1971 Posted January 2, 2013 Posted January 2, 2013 (edited) Impressive roster Matt! They're all very, very clean & well built! You should be very proud to have them on the shelf, I know I would. :-) Cheers Cliff PS: Did you scratch build the hinges for the DBS bonnet or are they purchased items? If so, where did you get them Matt? Edited January 3, 2013 by CJ1971
TooOld Posted January 3, 2013 Posted January 3, 2013 Excellent work on all of them ! Your " Flak Bait " dio is very creative and very cool !
The70judgeman Posted January 3, 2013 Posted January 3, 2013 All really nice builds. I especially like the B-26 Marauder dio.
Lunajammer Posted January 3, 2013 Posted January 3, 2013 A productive year to be proud of. Nice work. Yup, the scaling perspective and subject of the dio wins the day.
Jantrix Posted January 3, 2013 Posted January 3, 2013 That diorama is BRILLIANT!!!!!!!! Bob Agreed. The use of different scales to give a forced perspective is genius. Well done.
Matt Bacon Posted January 3, 2013 Author Posted January 3, 2013 (edited) Thanks very much indeed, guys! Cliff... if you're talking about the telescopic stays for the DBS bonnet, they are in the kit... they are moulded in the extended position and just pop into place in "click to fit" recesses when the bonnet is open. Thanks for all the positive comments on the Flak Bait diorama. I'm a member of the Classic British Kits IPMS SIG, and our display for Scale Model World in November this year was based on recreating "Classic British Box Art" in model form. Although the kit is a Revell product, it came in a specific box for Revell (GB), with some wonderful Brian Knights box art, which sold me the kit in no time when I spotted it in a local charity shop. It looks like this: Thanks again for all the positive feedback! bestest, M. Edited January 3, 2013 by Matt Bacon
ChrisR Posted January 4, 2013 Posted January 4, 2013 Nice models, especially the old Aston Martin DB6.
Dominik Posted January 4, 2013 Posted January 4, 2013 This diorama is absolut awesome! A great view, think, i am watching from above. Wow, thats great!
David G. Posted January 20, 2013 Posted January 20, 2013 (edited) Excellent models, all of them. The aircraft diorama however, is extermely clever and very well done! David G. Edited January 20, 2013 by David G.
Terry Jessee Posted January 20, 2013 Posted January 20, 2013 That diorama is BRILLIANT!!!!!!!! Bob I'll second THAT!!!! Terry

Rob McKee Posted January 21, 2013 Posted January 21, 2013 Very nice builds Matt. I just love your diorama of the B-26.
Webb Posted January 23, 2013 Posted January 23, 2013 My favorites are the 300SLR and the diorama. The execution on both is phenominal!
