Representing reality in miniature.
This diorama represents a German field maintenance unit for their armour and is based on the Takom kits of the Stratobahn 16 ton mobile crane and a late version Panther tank. The set dressing is from a mixed bunch of Tamiya and Miniart [...]
A Diorama of the Movie, 1941. The diorama was built for the iModeler at the Movies Group Build. It is 1/48 scale. Everything is scratch built except for the Hasegawa P-40E and the cab of the Wespe Models Ford 917, converted to a 1939 Ford [...]
A post apocalyptic dio featuring a rusty scratchbuilt billboard from Evergreen styrene and some converted Preiser figures. The car is from Busch with some minor modifications. The billboard

The base was made by using some more "Plaster-of-Paris." [...]
I don't have any "in-progress" building photos, nor do I have any box-art images. The two dino's sure look like "T-REX" models, but I'm not sure. They both have pretty good eyes. It look's like I added some color when [...]
This kit was made by Tamiya and was a good kit to build o.o.b; but the builder sure messed up building it.
The kit is made out of "VINLY" and not the tradition plastic that we modeler's are use to working with.
The builder which [...]
Tamiya produced this 1/35th scale dinosaur kit around 2011-2012 so I bought it.
If you look close at the box top you will note that the model has some nice feet with toes, however upon opening up the kit, you may be [...]
I think Tamiya made this "Vinyl" kit. It went together just fine in the o.o.b. mode. I found it somewhat difficult to sand the vinyl where the body and legs joined together, so I did the best I could.
None of the expert's knew [...]
