                        Frosty, I think it looks fine the way it is, but it would also look good with some snow. So do it how ever you'd like.

                        How's that for being non commital?? Tongue [:P] Big Smile [:D]

                        LOL !
                        maybe i should title the dio 'small parking mishap near Malmedy, 12/21/44'...

                        question 4 everyone:
                        does the dio need some snow ? i'm thinking maybe it does...

                        Real nice Frosty. Nothing like trying to park your tank in the garage...backwards.

                        Last time my wife tried that with her car, I had to replace the garage door slider, do some panel work and replace the rear tail light.Tongue [:P]

                        Frosty, that is looking great!!! Excellent work on the tank and the dio. I can't wait to see the finished product with the weathering and figures. Keep up the good work! You're doing us Eric's (and Erica's) proud! Big Smile [:D]

                        hiya, gang !
                        thanx 2 u all 4 the kind words !
                        i still have 2 put the floor section in on the left side of the ruined building,
                        and do a lot of weathering...
                        debating whether 2 add a few figures, got a set of hasegawa US infantry on the
                        shelf that would do just fine...
                        just have 2 add some blue scarves 2 the uniform (recognition code so the Germans would know these were their guys disguised as US troops)
                        i'll keep at it, but going 2 switch over 2 the sherman project full force
                        over the next month or so or i'll never get it done in time
                        (petbat was definitely rite on that score !)

                        DT: i'd never want 2 swipe business from Domi (even if i did have the skills)...
                        he's got a family 2 feed !
                        but thanx 4 believeing in me ! Blush [:I]Blush [:I]Blush [:I]

                        best wishes 2 all,

                        Very nice Frosty. Good job on the ruins and of course on the M10 Ersatz. DJ should indeed be scared as you are doing a great job on Braille Scale that he might find his customers ordering from you instead. Isn't that right DJ? LOL.

                        Looks righteous Frosty... I like it. See you have been playing in the mud with your kitty since the last time I saw it... I am still impressed with the conversion work... it looks factory done... great job.

                        Frosty,

                        Go to the gallery, double click on the thumnail picture to bring up the full sized one, right click on the picture and click on properties. Left drag your mouse over the address shown (make sure you include the http:// all the way through the .jpg. Let go of the button, the address should be highlighted, do a copy (I do it by holding down the CTRL key and pressing the C key, then go back to the window that has the forum in it. Open a new message (don't use quick reply), and paste the link you just copied into the message. Highlight the link and click on the insert image icon at the top. That should put the [ i m g ] and [ / i m g ] characters at the front and end of the link.

                        This is all assuming you're using a PC and not a MAC. Not sure exactly how you do it with a MAC!

                        (I can't remember how to upload the pics to Ron's site, so you are ahead of me!! I need to look for the page of instructions I have at home!)

                        Bill:
                        thanx 4 the link !

                        that's the one i was trying 2 display ...
                        i just can't seem to figure out how to copy the URL from the page,
                        & typing in the address doesn't seem 2 work anymore. Sad [:(]
                        there's another pic of the dio also, a closer shot...
                        and a pic of the rear end w/ the lights installed also.
                        i redid the spare trax, and added another circle star decal up top.
                        also did a bit of 'muddying up'...

                        still have 2 add chalk weathering, but i'm happy w/ the way it's turning out !

                        thanx again 4 ur help !

                        I hope this is the one you were trying to show. It's currently in the upload section, not the diorama section.

                        You did a great job. Really looks good!
