Wonderful Moni, the Spit looks great with great weathering. Lovely natural setting with great lighting effects on your dio. Superb, really like this.

Hi moni,

Nice work with the weathering on the Spit' and the overall picture of the diorama. Like the setting, as been said before it tells a story.

Cheers Richi

Nicely done Monica. The Spitfire looks to be well finished and your figures are well painted. Nicely poised scene too. Great build.

Great work on the Spit and diorama. I love the way the light casts shadows and brings the whole scene to life.

That's very nicely done Monica. I'd be well pleased to have something that good on my display shelf.

I hate to be critical, but it would look better if you removed the bases of the figures. A small drop of glue under their feet would be OK to hold them in place. Alternatively, drill a small hole up through the sole of their shoes into the leg and fix a piece of stiff wire. This could then be poked into the surface of your ground and you could move your figures anywhere.

If you don't want to mess around, a bit of glue on the base around the feet of the figure and you could cover it with whatever you've used for the ground where they're standing - grass, sand, mud etc.
