  1. Yet another masterpiece of modeling and photography...well done, my friend!

  2. Excellent! For more information about this battle (and the confusion around Fuso's sinking) I can highly recommend the book "Battle of Surigao Strait" by Anthony P. Tully.

  3. Your dioramas are always magnificent!

  4. By every description I have read about the end of Fuso there in Surigao Strait, you have gotten it exactly right. This is fantastic! I am knocked dead by the result.

  5. Another beauty!

  6. I love your work. When I see your diorama, I buy a 1:700 ship with p.e. (Tatsuta, full hull limited edition Hasegawa).
    When I will finish my work, I will post it. But I will never be able to match your skill.

  7. superb as always won !

  8. Won-hui, another suburb & realistic bit of modeling, I like it a lot !

  9. Hello Won,
    As mentioned before, "Master Modeler"
    Amazing piece of craftmanship in this scale.
    Regards, Dirk.

  10. I was at a model show & contest this weekend, bragging about your dioramas and the way that you so beautifully model the explosions, smoke and water effects (like the torpedo wakes). This is another superb diorama, and example of what I was bragging about! Well done.
