Nice one geegad, love the detail

[Guest]

For me the only thing i would do if it were mine is move the tank forward about an inch (i have this "thing" about models hanging over the edge of dios ... but thats just a personal issue not many people share )

Apart from that i like the whole thing, lots of detail to look at and the figures fit in really well with the scene.

I'm not up to the standard of some on here and i would be very satisfied to produce something like that.

Very nice geegad , figures look pretty good to me mate , I know some people like to do the eyes and some don`t on figures , I`m in the latter , at 1/48 or 1/35 scale you can`t really see the eye balls its an area I don`t bother with myself , another option you could do is paint the dio base surround edge black which would set it off nicely

Saying that its a lovely little dio mate I would be well chuffed if it was mine
