The original idea

Thanks very much for looking

Ant
 
that's looking super anthony!

your products look so beautiful and make phantastic little additions to dioramas and as we know, it's the little things that bring a dio to life!
 
My English does not help me, but you're an artist, man. A lot of amazing details. Congratulations!
 
Ant the dio looks just great! Taking the photo in natural light makes it look very realistic.

Thanks for looking and taking the time to comment, I'm glad you like it. It's amazing what a bit of sunlight can do to help bring out all the little details on a dio like this.
 
Just visual eyecandy Anthony :) Love the little details and your scenics look superb . Well done B) . I bet you are happy with it too !

Hi Jenny, thanks for your comments.

Yes I am more than pleased with it. I know there are tecniques I could improve on but will leave them until the next dio - it's been a great learning curve.

Cheers

Ant ;)
 
Whay thanks Bob. :blush:

I am going to present some SBS's in the masters section now this is out of the way. I will be showing how I use my materials to get these results. I've said it before it's not rocket science, it's more about having suitable materials. I've started seeing everything in 1:35 scale and wondering, how can I copy that? :huh:

Thanks again - speak soon

Ant
