Hi,
This is absolutely a little gem. Wonderful diorama!
The water and the weathering effects on the tank look so realistic!
And the base also makes the diorama ever more ttractive to the eye.
My sincere congratularions on a stunning job!
Cheers!
Pablo

Hi, I love this!
How did you get the fish and snorkeler to stay in place while pouring the resin?

I see a lot of great work here on Armorama, and this made me say Wow! to myself ( which is several steps up from my usual "Gee, I wish I'd done that" thought) as I was enjoying the pictures. Gold medal? Oh heck yeah, and platinum, plutonium and anything else in way of medals for this jewel of dio. I would dearly love to see this one up close and personal, so if you ever happen to be in Dallas, I would be happy to spring for the or whatever else your preference might be.

I think this diorama should be pinned. Every person should see this one. Doesnt matter what era you model, the techniques in this diorama are just perfect. This diorama transends from being a model to being an inspirational piece of art .
Beautiful.

Wow this is great. I am just about to try something like this. Could you tell me the brand/name of the resin you used for the water? Also what colour/type of paint and how much you used to tint the resin
Also could you tell me how you did the water.............What you used to keep the water/resin in when pouring. And how you didn't get the walls/barriers holding the resin to stick to the resin when you pull them away.
Could you give steps to how you did the water please.
Thankyou

The diorama is well deserving of all the awards. The model/concept/execution as stated by everyone here is excellent.
Let me complement you on one aspect that is often overlooked.....your display / presentation and the choice to use the "Kodak" film clips showing the dio's inspiration around the lower portion of the base is exceptional.
Congratulations on a great diorama.
Cheers,
Charles
I can only agree with Charles (and all the others) and take a deep bow to your talent!!
Cheers

Peter,
I believe I saw this somewhere as a W.I.P. a while back. This fantastic! No other words really. The idea is great and the delivery is incredible.
I love the presentation witht he photos around the bottom & the idea of displaying the Sherman in a peacefull and even happy setting is so refreshing!
Brilliant idea and work.
