Murdo Posted June 24, 2020 Share Posted June 24, 2020 You can almost smell that scene. As well as the craftsmanship of the model itself, the surrounding "scenery" really adds to it all and the whole dio just has an air of slight neglect and sadness to it. Superb work yet again Kev! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
