    Thanks for the link Hans. The train dio i was thinking is in there amongst all the other good stuff.

    Man how big would that Dora Rail Gun be? That has to be close to 4 metres long, maybe 5!! That is one beast of a model!!

   You guys do some cool stuff with these 1/6 scale figures.

   DOOG....  a while back someone posted a link to a 1/6 scale site. It had pics of a German railway diorama that was built up. Talk about amazing! The train, the goings on at the rail side, the huge amount of figures was awesome. I saved the site, but i am not on my computer(it is still packed away). If i get time i will go back and see if i can find the post. I will blow you away....

   Sorry Hans, not trying to take the attention away from your own work. Yours is great too...

There's a rather large aftermarket for battle barbies. We had a guy visit the club who at the time was running Connecticut Valley Insignia to show some of the stuff they offer. He had real leather jump boots selling for a hundred dollars. Either Lynn Kessler or Don Wynar, who co-wrote How to Paint Realistic Military Figures, once displayed conversions and repainted figures which included filling in all the joints for a very realistic effect.

Remember, if the women don't find you handsome, they should at least find you handy.

Very nice pictures and models--I'm curious though, what are these figures? Are they like "G.I. Joe" figures? The clothes look real--obviously they're real fabric. But I've never seen anyone actually use figures like this in a dio; I didn't even know there was an accessories market for these kinds of figures--did you scratchbuild the houses and street?
