Fantastic work Domi. Really nice stuff. The water is superb, especially with the splashes. I particularly like the submerged shark.

You really have to do a write up on this. For instance, where did you get the sharks ?

I love so many things about this diorama, first a very great idea, then an ace composition gathered in an appropriate amount of space, third a great hot spot with that guy holding the gun, then a great sense of colour etc etc, all in all a very engaging an refreshing way of building dioramas, I am never tired of looking at it

The crisp/sharp detail you added to the water is great.

The story and composition really shine with this project. Easy to figure out what's going and it makes for easy viewing.

Nice

Terrific work, great composition and imaginative use of components. Are the figures from the Tamiya 25pdr gun crew? They look really good in this context.

Only one thing- is the stitching really that big on a real sail?

I keep hearing Roy Scheider as Chief Brody saying, "You're gonna need a bigger boat!"
Very nice piece of work.
