    No time to rest

    This was my Sniper BG over christmas, but i did not have time to finish it as i went into hospital also moved house, with having a by-pass it took me some time to get over it & with moving house bits got lost so i lost interest in the build.

    It took me some time to get back into the swing of things so after two or three small builds i have decided to finish it.

    I have decided to put it under this thread insted of winter GB as this thread is closed, so i hope u all dont mined.

    Hear are some of the pic's of the build to date.

    Nice to 'see' you again John!

    There allows me to ask which is his intention for this diorama?

    The street is very nice, probably there will be some tank in there, or his last diorama might put in him on (motorcycles).

    Good luck with it and have fun!!

      Glad you've not given this one best mate, it was too good a start to leave it unfinished in my opinion.

      Nice to see you well along the road to recovery.

      Looking forward to seeing this one progress mate.

            Good to see you picking this up again.

            Not sure I understand the comment about the thread being closed, its still open and you have posted in it. If you mean it's due to the time for the GB has run out, you didn't need to worry about that.

            Still no problem at all that you have started a new thread here. The important thing is you are up and running again on this project.

            All the best

                      I'd forgotten this one - and I had been so looking forward to seeing it finished! Beautiful work John, but I gotta ask. What the devil is that 'UFO' in the first picture?
