ROBIN .... I AM TRULY SPEECHLESS. That Diorama (and that is far short of what it really is) is beyond amazing. All the tiny details and construction is beyond description.

I do believe that many of those shots are (FIRST TIMERS). I can't recall seeing the interior of a ship; unloading of horses, vehicles, crates; bridge of a ship and crew; storage holds; dock workers and equipment .... and so much more.

From now on you should be referred to as Robin leonardo da vinci

You are definitely a Toy Solder Polymath.:salute::

Absolutely spectacular. This has the look of a major motion picture. All you need now is a soundtrack:salute:::salute:::salute:::salute:::salute::

The ambulance looks like a JJD Crossley Tender that's been altered a little bit . . . I have been thinking about altering one (repaint) to go with my Wheels Across the Desert collection . . . . .

Tremendous Robin!!! Absolutely tremendous!

Love to see something different and a use of creativity that most of us can't imagine.

You did a fabulous job and that's not even the half of it.

Thanks so much everyone, I felt compelled to respond due to such wonderful comments, a great bunch of people to be associated with for sure. The JJD tender vehicle just has a Red Cross stuck on, such a nice little vehicle, I have ordered a second one. Must not forget my local model maker Man. I gave him the commission to build this boat six months ago saying I wanted to lift a horse over the side and as usual he has gone way beyond doing all the insides of the ship including the wheel house, stables, quarters, cargo right down to the horse poo. Currently he is working on another 4 projects, heaven help me what he has in mind for them, I keep saying keep it simple, but to his credit, he comes back with very versatile items which give me a heap of options to work with. Thanks again everyone for your supportive comments which inspire me to push on. Robin.

You have a tremendous collection, apparently a lot of space, and a wealth of creativity. This is definitely one of the most interesting dioramas I have seen.

Zululand 1879, recovering the wounded. Robin.

Such a great and rich dio....And the backdrop is just perfect{sm3}

 

[sapper]

I'ts all been said other than your dioramas and some others from the land of Oz are second to none. From a small collector base, we continue
to see quality work coming out of this country. It reflects how well the hobby is going here. Well done. Regards Greg.
