Heres my 4th installment on this rather large dio. Its starting to come together and look like something. My only fear now is that it may get to busy. Time will tell ..as I am still waiting on 6 more figures. As usual your thoughts......they have been a big help. Thanks and Merry Christmas..almost (:-)
PS: This is no way near done.

Looking great!! Are you going to Weather the Truck? You may also want to add some Dirt to the Platforms too.

Yes!! It is coming together vey nicely. Ditto on Matt's suggestions. The tree looks real and the placement of the old folks and the chicken and horse give it a personal homey touch even though it is during a war. Can't wait to see this one finished.

that is starting to look good John. It will look busier and busier as time goes on but I know that in the end you will have a real nice dio.

A stunning dio in development.... this is starting to look great.
I'm not sure about the big stones (boulders ?) in front of the house though. On one hand they really attrackt me because of the color, but on the other hand they are maybe just a tiny bit too much symetrical.... don't know...
The overall picture looks stunning though. Once this is finished, this will be a beauty of the best kind.

I agree with the above comments.
I don't think it will look too busy John. No need to worry about that. I really like the composition you chose. My eye is attracted right away to the Club Mobile - the dio's main focus I'm sure, and then the viewer is presented with the "life goes on" parts all around the focal point.
The other parts of the dio fill in and contrast nicely with the CM.
As you continue with this, I can only suggest that you "tone-down" the greens of the grass. It looks a bit too bright.
