    Lee Drennen’s 1/72 Diorama/Acrylic case for Autocar U7144-T with Cargo Trailer.

    I’ve had these Acrylic cases for over 15 years and thought some day I would put my 1/72 Model Builds in them as a small Diorama. Today I finished this one I have some small touching up to do on it yet. This is my first Base using this type of Case so it’s a little rough. I’ll do a complete construction build on my next Cases I build.

        I'm loving it!
        Strength isn't about what you can do, rather it's about overcoming what you thought you couldn't do.

            Thanks Arnold I appreciate it. I was going to use basswood for the base but decided on Foam board instead so I can get more details
