Great marine creatures Domi!

I think you may need some taller marine plants just to fill the empty spaces between the seabed and the ship.

Great work

Chas

Hi Chas

I am glad you like bugs.

between the bottom and hull of the boat, will go a submarine Maiale at the time of placing the explosive charge

Domi

wow, that ray and those fishes!! Always those little extra funny stuff that make your dioramas so entertaining and great to see, you're ace Domi!

Cool marine life! Splendid idea!

Claude

love it all. and amphora is a nice little touch
Kelly

Well this continues his journey,
Now I am with the painting, gave a slight moment of Bloom in the glass front, something dark in the two-hand side and a lot more dark and with "water" in the rear

.





While the paint dries, I am placing the submarine in position, not yet posted, I have to tighten the cord and give him an inclination to seek more or less attractive

So unreal piece of marine live forms
Really great

This is really great work! How did you do the weathering at the bottom of the hull of the ship.

Lars

The ship is really nice, love the barnicles.
I'm not sure I'm a fan of the water. I would suggest you try to make some water on top of it with some two part epoxy or household caulking. Check with the ship guys on this one
here is the feature page on MSW.

Hello everybody.

I am not finished as the convection of the wear of the keel me to devote more aging, added these algae / mold that sticks to DOT, wear and oxides throughout the low number wanting to represent a ship with very little maintenance







It seems to me a very strong but wear more "natural

Hello

Sorry the quality of the photos, but I am unable to remove them better without the glass makes me glare or shine, the effect of flash

Yo Domi,

What a project you have made!! Stunning work...a great story and a amazing feeling you created. I very mutch love the contrast between the two sides...very impressive!!
The water look is just great...very real.

Great work.

Greetz Nico

I love the lighting of this diorama, stunning!
Good job!

Real insightful job Domi, been following it very closely;

continua con el buen trabajo compañero

Wow, good job. That murky water effect is spot on.

Wow, don't know where to start with this one, stunning work my friend!
Stuart

I THINK you made a fatal mistake.

The ship is british as i can see from the propaganda post BUT the maiale is italian.

In 1943 the italians went with the allies side and left germans to fight alone.

The Xmas estabilished early 1944 so the ship MUST be german not British.

Very original idea and splendid execution, what do we want more? Congratulations Domi!

I would have preferred a complete shadowbox, no opening to see the crew from above, but this would have meant adding lights, so this is probably easier

Cheers
Claude

wooooowwwww SO great, your best yet Domi, I absolutely love what you did with this diorama, it is completely eerie and so original I already spent 10 minutes looking at the pics, it's breathtaking!
You know that but you are actually one of my Top 5 diorama makers ever!

Ola Domi!
That is very interesting and well build diorama. Congtatulations.

Hello Friend

.... because I am still not finished, I am thinking of closing the top of the machine room to give a more "closed"
What you think of the idea?

also I have to touch up the painting's glass front, has some blemishes that I do not like, but that is easier

Knowing that scracht has no secrets for you will be very helpful comments

Domi

Like i said in my comment, i would have done it like that. You will force the viewer in front of the dio. You are probably running into light problems for the back of the room. I don't know if the two lights in there will be enough. You must see that.

Claude

I'm very impressed by the illusion you have created, water without resin, genius!

Thanks for another great build story!

Chas
