Hi All

I think I should have posted this here but it`s in the aircraft section if you fancy a look.

Cool dio!  Who makes the kit and what scale is it??  Do you have any more pics??? If you do, I'd like to see them!  I think that assembly-stage or maintenance-stage dios are pretty neat, there is so much detail that you could develop in those type of dios if you wanted to. 

So, on your dio, what is scratchbuilt and what is kit???  Very nice work!! Thumbs Up [tup]Thumbs Up [tup]

Looks fantastic.  One thing that usually bugs me about workshop/in construction dio's is that there isn't enough clutter.  It just doesn't look natural to have a clean floor with a tank being worked on and a few figures.  Your dio is well on the way to looking perfect in my eyes.  The table, the tarp, etc make it convincing in my eyes, but there's always room for some more buckets, tools, engine components, crates, oil stains, dust, rags and more.  Just some suggestions, the dio looks great as it is.
