I, for one, am looking forward to this build and the possibility of a new cast of supporting characters.  Maybe the Gypsy Chicks?

Here is a photo of this Romanian fighter.

Thank you, gentlemen! Now comes the final chapter- take it away, ladies!




 

 Wunderbar!!!! Bow Down Camera is a neat little touch.

You have the patience that I could only hope to have. Another aweome addition to your resume.

Are the Ladies by chance going to be consulting on the next project? Whistling

Great finish, Chuck!  I especially liked seeing your process on the figures, since I think they're an important part of any display.  I'm glad they were important to your diorama, too.  And yes, the Leica is a great touch, too!

Truly incredible work. But I think the f stop on the leica is incorrect for outdoor photography. Ha

Well Chuck, I too am glad to add my voice, to say,

  Great Job.  

The rework on the camera  boy  er  man  was just inspirational (in my never ending quest of "how come that fig is too small/large  and what to do about it.") I now know surgery!  (maniacal laughter optional, but likely)

 RAUALDUKE is partly correct about the f stop.     However during the African daytime, after September 29th, just before vespers, such a setting would be apropo, for a 15 minute period;

thus you have once again shown us your mind numbing er true attention to detail.

Fantastic work on your diorama! Looking forward to your next project!

But first, cook yourself a steak, pour yourself a beer and enjoy some playoff baseball. Go Dodgers!

Since I've run out of superlatives, Chuk, just let me say how much I've enjoyed the build.

Wonderful work.  I'm looking forward to the Romanian adventure...hopefully Fritzi and Hannah

will join you!

Cheers,

Ernie :)

Thanks, gang!  So glad you all liked it- I know I had a great time with this build.  Hannah and Fritzi are on leave until my next German build- I'll have native Romanian to assist with the IAR.  Great Honk, I hadn't even thought about that coin, Subby- yikes!   ;D
