So while I wait the necessary materials to complete the diorama of the pub I will restore this old cartoon, I plan to change the plane because it has many years and it shows in the construction and painting that is already outdated.

also restore the land and lay it on a pedestal.









and the new plane

Strangely enough Domi, I thought the first version was already awesome
The diorama is first and idea and really all the elements were there, now I can't wait to see what you are going to do with that new plane of yours, i stay posted!

That is really cool. I can hear the pilot already cursing his bad luck or judgement.

Jean-Bernard, on this occasion there will be no novelty, simply change the old plane by one new construction under the ground.
this is one of the few dioramas I have at home and I get tired of seeing old.

The pilot is really what I like most, simply modify manufactures arms and fingers with electrical cord, I think I got him look to be scared right?

and here as I have two photos of the plane, I'm going crazy with the decals

Hello everyone.
the plane is already finished, after drawing a picture for memories, now I must break.
The idea is to break a piece of the wing hits the tree, and get a chipped rib tearing the fabric.

Really nice finish on the plane.
I like the idea of the broken wing. What are your plans to feather the torn cloth into the plastic part of the model.

Hi Scott
The idea is to make a sort of imperfect semicircle in the wing leading edge, making a pair of broken ribs and a plastic sheet of the finest Evergrenn (can not remember now but it is almost as far as cigarette paper) to the material that separates the inside to display in a shade of blue paint and the upper lining it with the same sticker, which I serve to conceal the plastic seal between the Evergreen and the model

Well, it is finished, the idea is not original since I built a few years ago, but wanted to update it

Nice- this turned out really well. The leading edge looks good. I like the overall impression. The scattered brancheslook good.

Hi Domi, now it's a very well painted and handsome plane you have been doing!
Now do I prefer this one to the other one? Not sure.. the reason is that you can see the guy's hand in front of his face on the first version, and on the second one, the upper wing is so low that it masks the hands of the guy when you look at the diorama from the front of the plane!
otherwise, well it's certainly a more colourful diorama this way, congratulations for yet another masterpiece
