Paul

Great looking diorama base, is that scratch built or a kit?

Hi Paul - welcome to the forum

Very nice build! Maybe you could post a few more pics? Would be great to see at different levels/angles? Are you calling this build done? Might be nice to see a few more figures with the beast on the street!

Cheers
Nick

Hi Paul,

Great job and very well done the AAVP7A1. I like very much.

How about some civilians ? Maybe there is some space...

Cheers

Hi Paul,

Beautiful build.

What is the purpose of the plastic bottles on the antennas?

Thanks guys

Yes I do think some civilians would look good .

The plastic bottles Were attached so the crew could insert glow sticks or ir sticks when moveing at night
