That looks very cool to me, well done. It shows these old kits can still be made to look good. The walls have turned out nice, what are they made from?

Keep 'em coming

Very nice dioramas that you've put together. Talk about bringing back nostalgia. I have a Matilda and a Scramell in my collection but they are ancient and it would be an embarrassment to show them after seeing what you did with yours. Keep on building and thanks for sharing.

Cheers,

Sean,

Wow! That's an outstanding dio! I really like that dozer . . . to cool! You should be really proud Sean, it is worth the effort that you put in it! Thanks for sharing your build. Hoping to see more of your stuff here.
