Words fail me. But I'll try.


Truly wonderful diorama with masses of detail for the viewer to take in.


Amazing that it is in such a small diorama.

Amazing build and great collection of photographs. Hard to believe just how small that is when looking at the individual shots

I didn't follow this one (boats aren't really my thing) till I saw all the 'Great Builds' clocking up, so I looked to see what all the fuss was about...


This is absolutely superb, Ron - amazing in any scale. Amongst all the great detail, I particularly liked the water splashing up against the rocks. Don't worry about including lots of photos - this diorama deserves it.

Thanks for your excellent comments gents.


I do like that picture Jim! Take away some of his hair and you have a good likeness of me...on a manic day!

Another beautiful piece. I think if I ever strayed from armor it might be to do a ship. You inspire me in that direction the way Grumpa inspires me in armor. The water affects you achieve is just perfect , even if in theory its easy I don't think I would be able to achieve what you do. Ive now become a huge fan of your work. Truly amazing and again you photo skills are flawless. I really cant say enough about these two pieces. Remarkable little details , I could go on and on. .....................Chris

Apologies to those that have seen this thread before....
