Funny you should say that Si I was going for a recon unit on manoeuvres. Glad you like it

Certainly do like it, think all the parts work really well and you have staggered the dios items to give loads going on in a uncluttered way, if that makes sense. Nice use of grass roll too, sometimes this can look like a carpet but the bumps etc on the landscape make it work really well.

Cheers Si , living in a rural area gave me the opportunity to go out and look at what a freshly mowed field looked like so I could try to emulate that in the build it also gave me chance to see how trees and bushes apear in the natural landscape , I noticed that you don't always get rows of trees lining the side of roads and lanes , the river and stone bridge is taken from my childhood in birmingham , I'm realy pleased with how it turned out.

And so you should be, cracking piece. When I started doing dios, I would cram all sorts of foliage and stuff thinking it looked good. It didn't it looked cramped and overwhelmed. So I tend to thin it out now and add items in certain places, so your eye moves from one piece to the other like a painting...still easy to get carried away though lol.

That looks really good Alan, and your right, natural stuff doesn't grow in neat rows, and yours looks just right.

I don't exactly how to express, but it looks like a 'fresh' diorama.

I like it, as the layout too.

It's a very nice one!! And has a Land Rover
