Thanks for the nice review, I appreciate it. The main thing I hear from modelers over and again is they love the detail & the ease of assembly. The main structures of most of our kits can be glued together & ready to paint in about 15 minutes. A few swipes w/a sanding block, some 5 minute epoxy & you're good to go!
As always, if anyone here ever has questions or comments please feel free to drop me an email or call. Cheers!

I started the three story apartment from Diorama Plus last night and so far have been extremely impressed.I spent more time on the insructions for the 5 minute epoxy than the entire building.
Within an hour I had the walls,balconies and three coats of wash done.
Also the first floor.
The product is well worth the money.You will need more foamcore to finish the seond floor and roof ,if that's what you prefer to use as I do.
I did drill the rebar holes a little deeper,5 minute job.
As stated,you won't find a better diorama piece for the cost of an average kit anywhere else.
Being a fan of modern armor,I hope Randy will release more middle east, Afganistan buildings in the future.
I will try to post photos of the finished product soon.

Thanks for the kind words. I'll send an extra set of the brick sidewalks (a $25 value) with each order placed until 1/10/10. Just mention that you saw this post on Armorama when you call or email your order in.
Thanks much for the support!
