I have to agree Jon. While it may look like a mess to those who do not build models...it is obviously an example of exceptional craftsmanship and weathering skills.

Good art evokes feelings - emotions. That makes me nauseous, so I guess it qualifies.

My guess is the fella is more into modeling diorama’s then photography. :D

I’m still working on both skills myself. :wink:

Your photography is far better. You also have nice skills on building a scene.

Jon, do know what the scale is for that WWII diorama? The "ruptured" Class 50 is highly detailed and I'm curious who made the kit.

No idea what the scale is. I’m just a member of the modeling group on Facebook which is despised around here. :D

Jon, I don't think we despise the modeling group, just Face Book....LOL

It's the way it's run and how the users are exploited that's despised......
