Have a good time as I enjoy myself with my displays (1 Viewer)

[Obee]

A couple of weeks ago I visited a friend and fellow collector who lives in regional city south of here and saw many of his dioramas that were on exhibition in the Regional Museum as a lead into ANZAC Day this weekend.

Chris is a retired architect and makes some beautiful dioramas, but he cant' paint 'little people' so that's were I help out with my painting skills.

I was particularly taken with this one of a Signals Troop from WW1 using John Eden figures that I had painted:



I said that I'd love to see the same building with my Napoleonic figures in it, and he smiled

This week, when he visited me here in the city, he brought me a similar diorama his had made especially for me, so i have added some K&C Naps just to show it off ...



It's sure nice to have a friend like this !!!!!

thank you for post them John, very nice dios. I believe that having the opportunity to engage in a such creative and fulfilling hobby is good for the body and soul, mainly in a dark period like the one we are going through.
Cheers

The dioramas are terrific, John!:salute:: I know you are partial to the Napoleonics, but the Signal Corps Pigeoneers are fantastic!

Great diorama John! What set number is the Old Guard who is cooking? I don't think that I've seen that one before.

He was a special figure released in 2018 if you bought a certain value of troops from K&C in HK. Howard managed to get this one for me



I'd like to see more poses like this in all armies, so that this sort of setup can me produced. The 7th Hussars relaxing is a great set of figures.

Thanks John! I must have missed that back in 2018. I'll have to take a look on eBay. It's a nice piece.

I have had the pleasure to build some French buildings for a Forum Collector (Semperrandyfi) wishing to set up a World War I Diorama, one of these items is a double-façade building with an Inn on one side and a Coal Seller on the other side.
These are some pictures with the completed building.
Enjoy
Carlo

Exquisite work Carlo! The photos are wonderful, and I could look at them all day. My favorite structure is the half tudor style, half stone two story house at the end of the street. The coal and wood shop is a masterpiece. I love the design, construction and painting. Your customer is certain to be very pleased with these beauties! Thanks for sharing the photos. They are a great escape, and they are very inspirational.

All the best to you,
Joe
