Excellent work!
Your figures are always posed very naturally.

Hi Russ! haven't been over here much lately, been working on a couple of group builds in the armor forum, and just spending a little more time with the hobby. My gosh! I've been missing all this fantastic work you produce. Your "The Bridge" is a wonderful piece of creativity, and certainly ranks up there with some of your best work. I have to tell you Russ! You really are quiet an artist, and it's just a pleasure to see your projects, and read your warm friendly comments. Please forgive me if I don't get to comment on all of your work like I'd like to. I have have the highest respect for your work. Thank you for keeping the "Diorama forum" a fun, and exciting place to visit. Semper Fi, mike

Awesome Awesome dio. The groundwork, figures, shading and weathering are so perfect that you put a backdrop behind it and say the picture was taken in 1941.

Great job once again! It's a challenge to put together something like this in a way that it doesn't look like the world just stops at either end of the board, and you've made it work. Love the figures, too...not the usual crop of guys there. Good stuff!

Hi guys,yep I`m having a blast!! I was in a slump for a time there but these past few months the ideas are coming hot and heavy. These past five dios have been built over a 3 month period and alot of the previous stuff has been around for five or six yrs,so it may seem like I`m pumping them out but in fact for me I am taking my time,so happens
that my next dio is a Tiger II ,a colaberation of sorts,a friend built it and didn`t like the finish so I`ve redone a few things gave it a wash and built a tree.Just waiting for it to dry
then drybrush it,add some mud,put the groundcover on the base,mount the tank and look for figures,it`s gonna be fun!
Both ACs are fairly easy builds,go together very well. I would imagine the rerelease of these kits would be the same in the buildup although I haven`t had the pleasure as yet.
