    Completed "What goes up- Must come down......Mykolaiv, Ukraine.


    Finally finished this.
    Except for the tank, all scratch built from polystyrene foam, foam board and 'stuff' from the garden.
    Clear plastic sheet for the water and a bit of silcone for any water movement.
    The background watercolour I painted, and used again for this, is from an earlier diorama of a Spitfire flying under a bridge.

          Excellent result Ron, well done.
          Strength isn't about what you can do, rather it's about overcoming what you thought you couldn't do.

                    Superb - the water is wonderfully lifelike.

                      What terrific comments. Thanks chaps!

                      After the rather erratic start to the build, (The bridge bit!) such nice posts has made that episode fade into a distant memory......

                      Thanks again.
                      Cheers.
                      Ron

                          You an' your silicone sealant an' garage sweepin's! Wish I could afford to make a video with you to show exactly how you do it! The makers of scenic accessories would pay an absolute fortune for us NOT to publish it!

                          Another first class story an' build!
