A short clip of my latest 1:24 scale diorama. The theme of this diorama, is a the driver in the Volvo is trying to back up the tractor unto the trailer. The guy in the green shirt is guiding him so that he does not drive to far off the ramp. The other guys took time of what they were doing, to...

I've been working on a diorama for a few of my trucks. I decided I wanted an old truck yard(obviously, its me), where old or almost run down trucks and trailers can be parked. I wanted the old concrete look and miscellaneous objects lying here and there to give more visual interest. So here is...

I have been working on a small snow diorama for the Oscarsson's truck and trailer I weathered a while ago for a client. I wanted to show-off the truck and trailer combo in its environment to further make it more convincing., Although, the client did not request a diorama, I thought I'd show him...

Yep! It's another 1:50 scale commission job from the same customer, who commissioned the truck/dock bay. The customer, Tobias Oscarsson, has the exact same truck in real life. This time, its a simple weathering job. I decided to go for the winter look. Here in Sweden it is cold, and I do mean...

I decided to have another go at a winter scene. The scene is based on a real scenario but different truck. The icicles were made by holding clear spruces over a candle, and slowly pulling the two halves away from each other. The frost was made using Green Stuff Frost solution. Two methods you...

I have been working on the second SBAT model, TGB 40 from 'Swedish Model Works'. Yes, its a 1:87 scale, too darn small for my taste, yet interesting. This is the 3-axle brother to the TGB 30 from the same company, I did awhile back. I wanted to do something that will make the TGB 40 feel at...

I have been working on a 1/50 scale diorama for a customer. It's a truck dock that will handle about 6 trucks. Docks for 4 full fledged truck and trailer and two single trucks without their trailers. Lots of fittings with bits and pieces of XPS to get things to fit perfectly or close. I Used...

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.

I have been experimenting with different types of methods lately. This time is with mud. Yep! Good old natural mud. :) I used mud collected from a neighboring farmer's dirt road. Really fine dirt, I must add. All I did in this diorama, was add PVA glue, and a little water, and Voila! The muddy...

I kept the weathering at a minimum on this 1/32 scale die-cast model. The diorama specially built for displaying the wheel excavator and/or any 1/32 and 1/50 scale models. I painted the stop blocks hanging on the front of the excavator and a couple of the railings a different color than the...

Just completed a display diorama for a customer. The scale display, is 1.2m x 0.40m x 0.40m in dimension. It is mostly for displaying 1:50 scale truck models, at exhibitions. I have come a long way and have done a lot of home made rock molds and scratch build details. I've even included handles...

This build came about by converting and scratch building, the old Italeri Volvo F6 Fire ladder kit. I had bought this a couple of years ago at an exhibition together with other second hand kits for little or nothing. I did not know what to do with the kit, until recent. So, it is no more a fire...

This is a remake of a previous diorama, together with vehicles from another diorama added to the mix. There is also a newer vehicle added to the diorama to give it more flavor. The reason for this new diorama mixed with the old, is because, the previous one got destroyed. So I came up with this...

Like my last overload project this one takes things a little further. The scale is 1/35, simply because, I had this vehicle on hand, that I did not know what to do with it. So I turn it from being a military truck to a civilian vehicle instead. This brand of trucks are sometimes used in the...

I did something like this over 10 years ago. I figured I can do again, but better. If it is better, I don’t know. but it is definitely better than the first one I did. The scale is 1/24 HC22 Suzuki Jimny JA11-5. The kit is by Hasegawa. The window shield was replaced with a protective glass, used...

I had bought this 1/24 scale MF20 a long time ago. It's been stashed away waiting for the right moment to decide on what I was going to do with it. Now I have. Will be adding a few more details here and there, which will not distract from the overall look.

The material used here are form board through out the entire diorama. The asphalt is represented by fine grade sand paper. The sidewalk is foam board painted with a concrete color mix, I had mixed at my local paint store. I used the same paint mix on the concrete portion of the building then...

This must be my 40th (I think it's more, I've lost count), anti-gravity vehicle to date.
