SHANTYBOAT
SHANTYBOAT (scratchbuilt)
A shantyboat is a small crude houseboat (also called a flatboat, broadhorn, barge, scow, or ark). There is a long forgotten history in America of people living in homemade shantyboats, a reasonable and cost-free solution for displaced people in rural areas and workers in urban areas.

Splendid job, Gökhan!
Thank you Spiros. I love this diorama too. Maybe one day I can finish the other shantyboat diorama.
Very nice, would love to have a vacation home like that!
I used a few shantyboat photos while making it and there is still a shantyboat that looks very close to this one. Fantastic.
Nice. A refuge from outside pressure. I like the way you made the water look . a slightly acidified look that back waters tend to do. Great job.
Thank you Bernard. I made water with resin. Infact I don't like resin but this diorama wants it. I made some some videos about making if you interest.
Agree on the previous comment, Gökhan @gokhan_arican
This diorama and especially the water looks perfect.
Thank you John.
Great looking diorama and unique subject matter.
I am enjoying seeing these scratch built models of yours.
Thank you Brian. Nowadays I can't make. Ihave no time. Maybe through winter.
Fabulous work- very realistic. Great diorama
That is so cool, and so well done! ? ?
All it needs is a big ol' rat somewhere! ?
Everything about this just looks really really nice. The detail in all areas is superb.
