                        This dio is awesome. I really like the positioning of the figures, I think they really make the piece. You've really captured the moment. Outstanding work. I hope you will be able to display this somewhere so it can be appreciated.

                        Yeah!
                        Really amazing diorama at all.
                        Not only for painting and weathering but for positioning the whole scene too.
                        I really like seeing interior details in houses.And that bathroom!!!!
                        BRAVO!

                        That is some fine work you've got on display. What kits were used? I like the building/rubble work as well, it's something I really want to try, just never seem to make the leap and but the stuff...

                        If I may ask - from which kits/manufacturer did you obtain the "re-fueling figures"?

                        Stunning. Simply amazing. I stand in awe of your awesome work, JGAGS! Everything about this is pure eyecandy. I would have dirtied up the inside walls and door a teeny bit from when the rest of the building came down, all that dust flying everywhere would dirty everything up. Yours took six months, mine took 5, did you feel kind of burnt out when you were done? LOL Big Smile [:D]

                        I paricularly like the color variation of the different roads and the house is superb.

                        a beautiful piece of work, and thanks for sharing :)

                        Excellent job. I love seeing these multi-vehicle dios, especially since they're done so well. There is a very good flow from one side to the next, with quite a few details warranting second looks. Great job!! Big Smile [:D]

                        Thanks, Everyone. It's great to share projects and ideas. Kelly Zak, you're right, I think I will add some more dust inside the ruin. (by the way - you're dio is awesome). Corvus, the figures I used are as follows. The figure in the back of the truck came from Jaguars US Refuelling party. The figure sitting on the tank came from Jaguars Sandbag Detail with hands from the srapbox. The figure carrying the jerry can came from Jaguar's Out of Gas. The other two in the tank are from Verlinden and the standing figure is from Nemrod.
