Is that Elvis coming out of the bathroom?

Thanks and that is The King himself. He had to use The Throne so he snuck out the back. LOL

How did you get the girl to look so real? Just kidding. Wish there were more of these old diners around. Good work.

Having just joined, I really appreciate the kind words from other forum members on my first posting.
Lot of great talent here. I really feel priveledged to be in the company of othres who enjoy the hobby.
These are a few photos of a drive-in diorama in 1:18 scale. The first photo shows the shell I begin with. This was created from commercial grade PVC, heat formed using a heat gun. I sometimes insert graphics to check the realism I am attempting to achieve. Hope you enjoy.
