    War of the worlds

    no one would have believed that in the later half of the 20th century that our world was being scrutinised by intelligences vast and cool and unsympathetic regarded our earth with envious eyes and slowly and surly they drew their plans against us .............

              The chances of anything coming from Mars are a million to one, easy!

              Great diorama in the much more traditional style of the American 50's and 60's.

                    I like the alien heat ray and metal effect, as well as the 3 vaporised crew (I didn't notice them at first until Patrick -dub72- called them out). I have to get going on my own projects now. I still have more work on the u-boat to do, as well as a 8 or 9 (I forget) german ground crew set -with tools and equipment- and that ME-262 that I got for my B-day last year and haven't even started yet... I think because of the PE parts, and I have never used PE parts to date. I think I am put off by them...

                      Wow! Terrific one!!

                      I'm agree with Patrick, the death ray looks magnificent.

                      One of the best dios I have seen lately

                          No one would have believed someone would be looking at this dio with envious eyes. But slowly and surly he drew his plans to steal it.

                          Great work mate 11out of ten.

                            Cheers folks I'm glad you like it

                            Tone I also watched the movie the other day to see if I could get the heat Ray at least similar

                            Very funny Ken

                            Steve I have three on the go at the moment , a little 1/76 dio of a king tiger and a puma abandoned in the snow , the USS Defient it's taking an age to paint all the panels and a 1/35 king tiger I'm doing as a derelict

                            Thanks to all for the great comments

                              Awesome work Alan, looks like it's straight out of a graphic from the great story. I too did not notice the vapourised crew until pointed out to us.
