    Castle Project

    Hello Scott, Many thanks for the feedback. I am basically your British Victorian and Edwardian soldier collector. When I started out I bought what I thought looked appealling but as time went on, as you know, everyting looks good. So I narrowed my interests to those eras. Even at that it...

    Castle Project

    Hi Louis, Thank you for your comments as well as Sabre's. It is made from 1/4" MDF and sprayed with "stone effects" paint and then given a stone gray wash. Unfortunately, my photo skills are not to the mark - there are walkways behind the walls and battlements. I like the idea of the moss and...

    Rorkes Drift

    Terrence, I really enjoyed your diorama and I think the backdrop is perfect. The staging captures the chaos of the battle - lots to look at for the interested eye. Great Job! don

    Canadian Expeditionary Force (2)

    Hi Eric! Thank you for your reply. The scale I will be using is 1/35th and the tank (Emhar Models) is exactly like the one in your pictures - mine will be British markings. I have to figure out the correct setting to include a trench and position the tank. I do not want to over power the...

    Diorama - Delhi Durbar

    Michael, I apprecaite your comments - mostly trial and error as opposed to skill and precision on this model. It is actually a prototype - I wanted to make the dais so I finally got down to work. Looking at pictures and taken one of my toy soldiers and compared scale. Basically, I assumed my...

    Diorama - Delhi Durbar

    Thank you all for the positive feedback - the model is made from wood - cut to dimensions which can be tricky to achieve proper scale. Other items came from the fabric store and the dome is a lid from a slurppy cup. The rug and chairs were Ebay purchases. More or less adapting practical items to...
