Hi all. Must say its been a while since I posted here. I hope you all have taken care of yourselves during these strange times. God bless you all. Now on to my post.


This is what I’ve been working on lately. It’ a D9R maintenance diorama. Lots and lots of work went into building this diorama. Many many detail and scratch built pieces, went into the construction and I am 99% done with it. So, I hope you like the results. Thanks for looking.

Hi Charles. That is excellent dude!
The wear and tear and the rust on the D9 is most convincing. If I may say it, they have to be some of the cleanest fitters I have seen in a while. It must be Monday morning lol

Hi Ian. I guess it depends on the situation. It can vary. Like you said. They probably just started on it. I guess, this is where imagination takes over. :smiling3:

Looks great to me Charles. So much detail to look at.....my favourite is the pallett lifter wear. This just looks completely convincing.

Wow Charles what a build, and so different. Lots of small details like the oil in the drain unit, and as Tim said the wear on the pallet truck.
