                        I built this for a friend who is a confirmed 1/48 scale nut! He collects old Bandai kits, various Gasoline and Hauler stuff and gets me to build them for him. What a deal!!! He mainly builds aircraft himself and is a phenominal builder - I guess he just likes my take on armor and soft skin stuff.

                        Anyway, this maybe more of a vignette than a diorama - not real clear of the designation.

                        Diorama tells a story, vignette is more of a still life? Well here it is..

                        Thanks for lookin'

                        Figgies look kind of funny but trust me, you do not want to see my attempt at DAK colors. Nice job overall!

                        How'd you build up the groundwork? Looks real nice I like the rocks.

                        (1/48 scale is way too small for me! Shock [:O])

                        Looks nice, but I would suggest that you just put in a bit of vegetation--like maybe just some short, yellowish grasses in tufts...it would break up the monotone color of the gray rocks.

                        Anywhere you would find a landscape like this, you would have seeds being trapped in between all those rocks, and you would have at least grass growing here and there. RIght now it looks too much like a moonscape, IMO.
