I think TB is refering the one in your signature line.

Love the dio. You can make something so mundane and common look amazing in minature formYes

 

Of course, weird i cannot see it. Strange. Probably because, I'm using my mobile to read tjis board. In that case, its no magnets. Just clear acrylic rods. I would love to use the magnets method but they tend to spin.

 

Btw, thank you for your uplifting words.

I gotta Ask.

         I love the " Pod Racer" You know I do, Now how do you get it to float. One of those magnetic trick bases?

 

Which pod racer are you referring?

Much appreciated everyone. Glad you all like the build. Hope to order some figures for this diorama, as I am not so happy with the ones I presently have on hand.

I think I’ve finally figured out your secret to amazing models.  You made yourself a “Honey, I shrunk the kids” machine, and these are real life miniatures.  

Your modeling does defy description.  Thank you for posting.

Very nice weathering and paint chipping. And very realistic. Some shots the only giveaway are the DOF and lens angle, or you would mistaken it for a real size machine.

Yoiks! ! ! 

 I used to have to build like that for Attorneys! I am glad to see you be the perfectionist here! Awesome job and story told! Many folks have no idea how stuff is loaded.

This build is about 95% done. I still need to add the figures(will take some time, as I have to purchase some of them), a tall flood light mast and some smaller details. But so far, this is where I'm at, at the moment.
