I'll post pictures on the weekend but here is one on my phone already. Dimitri made all three dioramas for me at the bottom

Thanks Dimitri. Your work is amazing as always. I'm very pleased with the end result. I will post pics on weekend

It's getting shipped this week from Greece. When it arrives I'll post some pics. The company who make the diorama are called dioramania. You can see some of Dimitris work on ebay.

I wanted to share this diorama made for me for the original Normandy flak and crew. Theatre is Greece

Hi Re-Painted for me by my friend Dimitris in Greece. Although they feature in a previous thread i think they deserve their own. They have been shipped and hsould be with me next week with a new diorama base. Before After Base

I've been banging on about the deteriorating quality now for about a year and a half - mainly the quality of the sculpts and paint.

Thanks. The FJs are getting repainted and weathered by Dimitris. I'll post photos when they too are done.

Well said.

For the record I'm happy to pay more for quality.

Well that would be a shame because they certainly use to make some very impressive figures and vehicles. It's only until recently that the quality has dropped. As I said they're the only range I buy.

I understand your point but I only buy for my personal viewing pleasure, I don't really buy as an investment or for resale value. Since I only buy collectorsshowcase this is the only line I'm interested in. If the quality of the painting doesn't improve then I'll just stay with what I have...
