Hi John
That is b****y brilliant. I like it all especially the trees. The best thing from your bench that I've seen - do you agree?

Outstanding!! I feel suitably cold now. Lots going on with this dio mate. Great work with the trees. They look so realistic and more importantly in scale. The guys in the back of the truck are very busy. Up there with your best builds JR. Well done sir!

Wow guys that very nice of you both to say.
Jim, yes I'm pleased, it has a lot of technics which I've enjoyed trying, and will attempt again.
Steve, put your pullover on

It all pulled together so well. Snow came out very good, but the trees stand out as quite an accomplishment. Love the compo. PaulE

Hi John have been watching this come together from a far and you don't disappoint at all and tend to agree with Jim it's a stunning result, you are certainly a tree master now and you get a cold chill from it so I've had to throw another boy scout on the fire or is that on illegal now.
Top work sir.
Pete.

Missed the build of these, but just thought of a cold weather dio in this warm spring and here comes your fine work John, love it.

The vehicles, figures and snow effects, superb work sir

Great stuff John. The individual elements looked great in their own right but brought together they are something else!

Thank's lot Paul, certainly took some time to achieve, but pleased with the finish and more so the comments.

Pete, thank you, but I do believe that is illegal, no doubt due to carbon emissions .

Fernando, thank you, very much. Its gone on so long I'm not surprised you missed it .

Cheers Andy, really enjoyed doing it, apart from waiting for branches to be ready.

Hi John, I've had my head buried in the three dios I have been working on and missed the final stages of your dio. The end result is fantastic and as Jim mentioned one of your best and it's way out in the country side with no buildings to lend your buildsmanship. The trees look really good and the light frost is quite convincing...I mean convincing enough to want a doughnut with sprinkled icing. ...brrr I'll get my coat...

Seriously you should do more scenes like this...nice and compact.

Cheers,
Richard
