I.... I  don't know what to say, escept the fact thats the most fantastic diorama I've ever seen!

saying "good job" just isn't enought!

This Dio deserves nothing but praise,The sheer amount of work is mind boggling.In this hobby surely there is no rules on how big or small dios should be.People that knock this amont of work and dedication are only one thing,jealous and are often lacking talent themselves.You would,nt tell a railway modeller his layout cant be very big would you.Id love to have the time and concentration to go large.work like yours only inspires,Very well done.

I have to say WOW!!!!  Great work.  I usually dont come into the Dio Forum, but bordem got the best of me this morning and I started looking in all the forums.  I am amazed at the realism and level of detail that went into this. It's not often you see a dio of this....scale!!!  I have done a coupld of small dios, and knowing what it took to build them, I dont think I have the patience, time, energy, or ambition to build something this large.  My hats off to you!!

The images don't do it justice. I've seen it up close at a couple of different shows and it's something to behold in person. You need to see it with your own eyes to take it all in.

Wonderful job.

I ain't going to comment on the size nor the 'guys setting the standards'.

Purely from a hobbyist and enthusiast's point I think you pulled this off fairly well. There is quite a bit of detail in every angle and shot and area of the diorama. Very well done.

  If you want to see some more of my work just scroll back threw the dio forum and you'll find some of my other stuff,nothing anywere near as big. This was definitly a one time thing,learned a lot from it though .I also have a WIP that I hope to have done by the end of march,got a blog going on that one(Eastern front dio WIP).
