Gisbod Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 Hi all, Just finished my Wingnut Junkers. My first attempt at a diorama, and was a surprisingly steep learning curve! But great fun too. Aviattic resin Crossley trailer, fuel cart & figure. Diodump factory wall and gates. Home made plaster cast base in a picture frame. I hope to be taking it to Telford this year & will be in an upcoming ‘Scale Aviation Modeller’ magazine. Thanks for looking in Guy 54 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnT Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 As come on. "First attempt"? 😁 it's fantastic. I'd be lucky to get that good on the umpteenth hundred attempt. I'd love to see it in the plastic as it were. Truly well done Sir and hat doffed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skodadriver Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 1/32 isn't my scale and WW1 isn't my field of modelling interest but I know good model making when I see it. You've produced a stunning example of the modeller's art. My jaw is well and truly dropped. I hesitate to repeat the f-word but that really is fantastic.

Orion Posted August 18, 2018 Share Posted August 18, 2018 Hi Gis, Splendid. Also the subject is very special. I can imagine many hours of work went into this diorama. Regards, Orion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shalako Posted August 18, 2018 Share Posted August 18, 2018 Very beautiful diorama, however, I would like to ask, is this supposed to be a scene after the Great War, or during? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gisbod Posted August 18, 2018 Author Share Posted August 18, 2018 Thanks all, It took a fair amount of time, but I viewed each element as a separate project, and it was an enjoyable journey... The story is open to interpretation rather than anything fixed! Guy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Masters Posted August 18, 2018 Share Posted August 18, 2018 Really impressive attention to detail and life. Maybe you could scuff up the table top a bit. Give it a bit of wear and tear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darby Posted August 20, 2018 Share Posted August 20, 2018 Ruddy marvellous! Had a spot of bother with the Avro and a train in France some years ago. Do you think 'your man' could sort it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
