The Magnificent 5! + a Stug.

[spanner570]

After I had finished the recent diorama I stage built on the forum a couple of weeks ago, I put my mind to vehicles and figures.

The photos are the result....I hope you like them. I have a few others I will post if anyone would like to see them.

The players are an Academy Sturmgeshutz, decked out in Ron's patented kitchen roll cammo netting!! and the Tamiya 'Machine gunners on maneuvers' (1.35th scale)

:cheers:

Ron

I think you an' 'Noble' are conspiring together to make me run out of superlatives! This is the second amazing diarama I've seen this weekend! Wonderful stuff. I ain't 'alf glad I found this site.

PS I was right in my earlier posts about this scene. I would definitely not be welcoming these visitors!

Thank's to you all for the nice comments......

It is very satisfying to be doing something I thoroughly enjoy and giving people pleasure when they see the end result.

In the few months I have been on this forum I have yet to see a snipe or an unkind remark made about folks work, no matter how modest the effort...and I don't think I ever will!!

Although I have never met any of you, I feel part of a great, big boy's family.

Thank you for that.

Ron

WA HO!! FIVE STARS, great stuff, Scott, thanks.

Trully humbling to think you rate it so highly....Mind you, I must confess to being well chuffed with the end result myself, but five stars!!!!!

Now what next? No, the wife has told me I have to chop some logs ready for winter. Can't chop wood in the dark though, can I boys? He He!!

Thanks again, Scott.

Ron

Thanks for the kind words Tony. Glad you liked the end result. I was asked by our friends to put up some extra pickies which pleased me loads.

Anyway, what would you consider a decent make of kit for a 109f?

I know armour kits vary in quality but this can be hidden by mud and dirt but I guess an aircraft has to be right from the word go.....No hiding place for bad moulding, eh!

:beer:

Im looking to get either the italeri kit (about £8)or the fine molds kit(about£15!!) .I got the old frog kit which has the correct decals,but the kit is VERY basic ,i wanted to get something better to equal the quality of the hasegawa kubelwagen. Im going to the newark show this weekend so hopefully ill get one,i cant wait to start chucking that budgie sand about!!! cheers tony
