brett Posted February 11, 2013 Posted February 11, 2013 decided to merge both my small dios and add a bit more to them
Foxer Posted February 11, 2013 Posted February 11, 2013 everything looks real good there .. ground and objects.
David G. Posted February 11, 2013 Posted February 11, 2013 Excellent work! Fantastic detail and weathering. David G.
rmvw guy Posted February 11, 2013 Posted February 11, 2013 Lots of great detail. Nice job on all the weathering, many good stories could come out of this yard. All the grass and weeds look very convincing. I like it very much, nice job.
Ramfins59 Posted February 11, 2013 Posted February 11, 2013 Great job Brett.... very realistic looking.
Sixties Sam Posted February 11, 2013 Posted February 11, 2013 Great realism! I like the weeds growing through the pickup bed. The guy hoisting the Mustang engine in (or out) is a cool touch. Nice work! Sam
Hollywood Jim Posted February 11, 2013 Posted February 11, 2013 That looks great !! You really have that rust look nailed. How did you do the glass cover ? Did you start out with a glass case that had a wood base; and then build the diorama in it ? . . .
charlie8575 Posted February 12, 2013 Posted February 12, 2013 Nice, Brett. Where did you scavenge that GM X-Frame out of? I can't think of any model that has that fully separate. If not, you did a really nice job separating it from the floors. Charlie Larkin
brett Posted February 12, 2013 Author Posted February 12, 2013 thanks guys, I'll have to get a pic of the other side of the mustang as there's a guy lying down under there having being the one undoing eveything. Jim, a guy in our club is a glazier so we just give him the measurements and he makes it up. He was actually the one who asked me do build this for a public display that our club does annually. Thanks Charlie, it came from the amt 62 impala as I top sportsmaned that body (under heavy chevies I think). Yea though it took a while to separate and tidy up, a dremel makes it a relatively easy job of it.
Raykreations Posted February 13, 2013 Posted February 13, 2013 I like how you turned a swing set frame into an engine hoist for the mustang
wrecker388 Posted February 14, 2013 Posted February 14, 2013 (edited) Nice, Brett. Where did you scavenge that GM X-Frame out of? I can't think of any model that has that fully separate. If not, you did a really nice job separating it from the floors. Charlie Larkin I'm not sure if it's an X-frame or not, but Revell's 1964 Impala has one separate.And i absolutely love this dio Brett!

vaughn Posted February 16, 2013 Posted February 16, 2013 Really nice Brett ! Lots of different things goin on in the Yard !!!!
Mooneyzs Posted February 22, 2013 Posted February 22, 2013 Brett....this diorama is awesome. Great job on it. It looks killer
gasser59 Posted February 22, 2013 Posted February 22, 2013 I have to agree with everyone Brett, this is so cool, well executed and insanely well thought out. Yup, post a pic of the guy under the Mustang as he's doing all the work and not getting any credit.
brett Posted February 27, 2013 Author Posted February 27, 2013 thanks guys , took a couple of shots from the back fence tonight
