This is an older dio of mine. Nothing great but build it in a very difficult era (financially, emotionaly, family conditions..etc.) so its important to me reminding me a time that my hobby was helping me getting away . If you like comment please. Thanks in advance

thank's for this photo brother, it is very helpfull for me to build my kit . The tamiya kit has no basket, only the moto. I ll check your gallery for extra details. I agree that this hobby helps you to forget the problems and makes you feel better.

Always have fun with your builds!!!!
I just checked out your diorama, couple of points I'd like to offer. With the bridge construction.. I would offer that there should be some vertical rope from the hand rail rope down around under the planks. That is a mighty big span (about 20 scale feet or so) and to have no support holding the middle up makes for a tenuous crossing.
The motorcycle and the figures are a touch on the 'flat' side (not shiney vs. flat) but almost one dimentional. I think a bit more wash would help bring out the detail and give dimention to it.
I like the id mark on the front of the motor cycle that look well done.
I'd like to see a couple more close up photos of the bank with the figures to get a better idea of the story.

Blast! I can't have my friends see this site! That makes my dio look pitiful! But, hey, maybe I'll get better when I can get back to work. Good job!
