The Attack. A B-24 Long Range Liberator Bomber has spotted the wake of the U.Boat's periscope and has circled.....waiting.
I did a sketch water colour of the B-24 on a piece of card coming in for an attack run and placed it behind the model in various positions.

I really enjoyed watching the build thread to this on Ron, and once again you haven't disappointed with this fantastic scene. Looks almost real especially in the black and White photos. Once again well done Ron. Looking forward to the next.

Another outstanding dio from the master of dios, that looks like a still from a movie, amazing stuff Ron it blows my mind how you do it.

Great stuff again, Ron, and brilliant artwork/photos. Though I missed your customary shot of a finger or hand, showing the whole thing is really only 5cm long!

[Guest]

Wow!!! Simply brilliant!!
I have no words Ron. A geniality !!!

Very very good Ron, I can almost taste the salt! You're the master of water effects.

Gobsmackingly good mate! Not only a superbly created model and seascape but the real genius is in the composition and execution of the images , you can have all the whizz bang photo gear in the world but if you havent got an eye for what looks right your pics are never going to look as good as yours do, simply stunning and a real joy to watch , cheers tony

Another stunning build. The boat is terrific, and I can honestly say I have never seen anyone, anywhere, who can do more convincing water.

I showed the first colour photos to SWMBO and she thought it was real. I showed her the last one, which includes the hand of God, and she couldn't believe how small the entire vignette is
