I agree ralph, excellent work. There is a real sense of 'rushing along' there. As to the middle pic, it does work, it just takes longer to DL, best closeup of the set too. Worth the wait!

Ralph,
Ahh...that one was yours eh? I remember seeing it at the show. The pic I took was in my bad (underexposed) batch.

Great work. I like the feeling of motion.

Thanks Guy's - I really appreciate all the kind words.
I'm working on my M18 Hellcat now, which will be put into
an even bigger diorama of a historical W.W.II battle with
U.S & German figures & armor ( Falaise Pocket or Remagen )
Or I might put it into a diorama of a historical Pacific theater battle. ( Okinawa maybe )
THANKS AGAIN EVERYONE
