tiking Posted July 10, 2022 Share Posted July 10, 2022 (edited) Not much to say here, but just experimenting. Saw a photo of a similar scene and thought I'd replicate it. Will probably add a figure or two, maybe a dog would suffice; not sure. Edited July 21, 2022 by tiking 38 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete in Lincs Posted July 10, 2022 Share Posted July 10, 2022 As always, quite wonderful. Very convincing. That VW must be worth saving. If only we had a crane with an electromagnet! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tim R-T-C Posted July 10, 2022 Share Posted July 10, 2022 Quite remarkable. An often attempted subject on model railways but never captured so well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was actually thinking that you might do something similar but we aren’t bothered about rules so if you want to post this beauty next year, go ahead. 😁 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll see if something else comes to mind, before then. If not I'll just post the same, but will definitely think harder to see what I can come up with.

That way you’ll get a reminder when it’s time to vote for the proposal in the autumn and hopefully another one when we start. We aim to be the most inclusive GB ever and you have just opened up a whole new category. We have no 25% rule but it never occurred to me that we could admit 100% finished models from the past too. We’ll call it the Entropy GB Volunteer Reserve (GBVR)! Marvellous! (I have some old wrecks to include too!) The final gallery will be HUGE! Still no polls or prizes though. Cooperation not competition is the watchword! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ColonelKrypton Posted July 14, 2022 Share Posted July 14, 2022 Fabulous, marvelous, captivating - very nicely done. Layer upon layer of detail waiting to be discovered. If anything it is too "perfect". I don't think I have ever see such neat and tidy junk yard before. If anything, the only thing else it needs is a junk yard dog. cheers, Graham Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
