Old Diorama Repaired By Parksie (1 Viewer)

[Northgate Woods]

Whilst still working on my new large Vietnam Fire Base, my good mate Damian (Parksie) has repaired and restored an old Bridge Diorama given to me many years ago by a collector and good friend Graham (zoidberg) from South Australia. Unfortunately due our Covid Lock Down he has not been able to return it home to me. This Base is too contain on arrival a range of K&C VN figures and vehicles. The MP Land Rover, Aussie MPs, ARVN MPs, Aussie Diggers, VN civilians on foot and on Vespas plus Water Buffalos. On the river below will be a SOHK Junk with a black pjama clad oarsman plus a load on ammo boxes.
I hope you enjoy Damian's work. Photos of the finished "Check Point Dio" set up will be posted at a later date.

Cheers Howard

I like to sandbagged protection with roof to keep out the sun and tropical rain.

Nice work on the river, looks like it is really flowing.

Be sure to send us images when the troops arrive, great work Damian !

Best get the bridge checked for load bearing by the Engineers before you drive a Centurion over ! %^V

Display is looking good Howard !:salute::

I see quite a few little stories going on in your scene. Looks like that MP at the Guard Post probably lets the girls use it for a cut ! {sm4}

Terrific display Howard. I've recently added a mat base to my Vietnam display. I'll post some pics when I get some spare time.

Fantastic groundwork and space usage. The bridge is really well done- the wood planks and steel siding. Congrats on bringing her home Howard!
Nothing tells a story like a nice diorama.
