Very nice work on the overall display.
Excellent figures.

The weathering and painting are out of this world. Did you sculpt the body of the motorcyclist? A few more leaves on the trees and you could pass this off as a photo.

Beautiful diorama!
I love the landscape, the water and the plants!
Also the vehicles and the figures are very good - I like the scene!

Welcome to Armorama
This is indeed a nice work!
As Matt already pointed to, the tree neds more branches and twigs, of course with leaves.
I love the lower grasses! Do you have more info on that brand J's Work?
Well done

Welcome to armorama Joe-lo. This is a beautiully formed and well finished diorama. I don't know why you said your figure on the motorcycle was of 'unacceptable' quality because it looks fantastic.

Hi Matt. Thks for your reply. I sculpt the body of the motorcyclist. Dragon's figure parts for hands and boots and Hornet's head. After studying your comment, I also find there is something wrong w/the leaves on the trees. Joe

Hi Karl, Thanks for your reply. If you have a close look at the scratchbuild figure, you will find it is very rough. Joe

Yo Joe lo,
Nice setting. Your vegetation work is very well done and very realistic. Also nice weathering on the kits.
Keep up!
