^&grin^&grin WOW that many
 
You gotta love these two diorama's even if you only like trains. The attention to detail is super amazing. Like the idea of placing the train crossing to another line, really sets it off, never thought of doing that. The WW11 loco is supberb, the weathering looks so good. It seems the JJD Light patrol car has somehow already arrived on the shores of Australia, I am falling behind. You should be very proud of these fine examples relating to our hobby. Just everything about both scenes is brillant and full of interest. It does not get any better than this. Robin.
 
having had the pleasure of holding and actually seeing the 4 JJD desert cars they are a must have for any collector so looking forward to their release and the figures to come with them.

Again the detail like the lewis gun is brilliant and we thank John for sending them out to us early so we could use then in the Middle East Train DIO

Wow, those dioramas are incredible. Job well done and awesome display of creativity
 
As Mark mentioned John Jenkins kindly sent down an advance party of four of his Model T's so they could be shown off in the Beersheba Dio. Figures were not quite ready in time so they had some K&C nearby.

The train dios were extremely well done and the guys been working on them for months.
 
Yes the two days of showing off our dios were good fun, many great compliments and invites to other shows. Over all well worth the effort. My thanks to all the guys for putting in the time and to Brett as well. Great company and as I said good fun. I am dog tired and now thinking of what next.......:salute::

All four have come to my place for a visit and to play....stay tuned :wink2:
 
The common dominator is the dog and it fits so well with each scene Wayne. I wish I could round mine up, but they have escaped into my collection and only surface one at a time.^&grin, Robin.

Originally I was going to use a 1:1 scale dish licker but the ground scale compression didn't seem right, plus she insisted on a bone as payment...:wink2:

...On the way into battle, nobody ever said: "I think we should have brought a cat."
 
I post the first picture that was sent to us by one of the show patrons...



This was the description attached to the WW2 dio.



Not sure about the ' knowledgeable attendants ' bit......:rolleyes2:

Well done all very impressive and can only think that there will be Railway enthusiasts that will branch out into TS even if only to enhance their own Railway displays.
