Unique, one-of-a-kind, scratch built, City Ruins Military Diorama titled : "Chambres à louer" (Rooms for Rent)
1/32 1/35 54mm approx. 12" (30.48 cm) x 10" (25.4 cm) including frame. Asking $125 US plus shipping, but I will entertain reasonable offers.

Soldiers and vehicles NOT included.
Absolutely UNIQUE: This is the only one of its kind. Even if there are similar themes, this diorama is completely scratch built. From the individually fashioned door and window frames, to the tiny light switches and electrical sockets – right down to the checkered floor and the “shards of glass” scattered around. Each wall is hand cut and “spackled” for this particular work. This is classic diorama construction in the tradition of the greats like Sheperd Paine. I spent a lot of time, as a kid, with Paine's tips on building dioramas which were included with the old Monogram Armor kits of the '70s.
It's been a long time since I've posted here. The economic slump, cost of materials, the US Postal cancellation of international surface shipping...etc.
Anyway, having pretty much left eBay {sm4} , except for the occasional "oddball" listing, I thought I'd give it another go via Etsy and other sources. Still, it's the same quality product, superb detail and excellent personal service people have come to expect from me over the years.
More in process including an approx. 11x14" display area bridge and small river diorama.
Thanks for lookin', mm2k3
