An Ex. Marine's Dream. A 1/72 surreal occurrence.

[spanner570]

On his father's request, his son took the elderly Ex. Marine back to Tinian where he had stormed ashore during the Pacific Conflict of WW2.
They both managed to wade out in the shallow waters to take photos of a long abandoned Sherman tank.

When the veteran returned home, and for a few days after, this strange vision came to him in his sleep.......















More of a vignette really.....

Cheers.

I bet knowing Ron its the clear plastic top from an old box with an ole in it. Rather effective in it

 

[Mr Bowcat]

That would make sense. I assumed it was a poured product, but thinking about it I doubt any product could ever be so clear.

Very effective indeed.

Of course the simplicity of Ron's magic is amazing and his subject matter is always thought provoking.
Good one Ron

Chaps, just back from me big late Summer/Autumn 'ols. and just read all your post on my effort.

So just a quick thanks for all your most excellent comments.

It's not a 'poured product', more a bit of recycling.....

Cheers all.
Ron
