Hi all. Hey I know, it's been a while since I last visited this forum. Been busy with other projects, like upgrading my stabilizer.

Anyway, I'm back. As you all know, I have least interest in modelling figures simply because I am useless. I am trying though but most of my time goes towards building rarely seen models. I think most of you all have seen mine work one time or another. So you get what I'm talking about.

I have redone serveral dios and would like to know what type of figures or what theme to use in them. As most of my dios are just for displaying I decided I want to include figures to bring it life. So, if you all would be so kind as to dish out your thoughts, I would be very happy :-)

I pretty much have a idea of ´what I want but it would bé nice to get others opinion. Thanks.


Here are some:

CLT dolly dio

HRV dio

MC dio

LVS dio

BTW, my next build project is a Isreali radar unit. A real moster.

The warrior and Verlinden ranges have a lot of modern figures may be worth a look, bye the way I like your models very unusual subjects and well made.

Hi there Ti. First, I like to say how much I have enjoyed your work. Those models on your dios are really awesome. Congrats.

Figures will definately enhance any diorama especially if you have a theme as you already do. Modern figures will definately work in your situation.

May I ask you about the last dio you have there? THe LVS that is. What type of model is that? I know it's an Oshkosh but what version?

Thanks Frank, BTW could you send me your phone number again? I'll like to talk to you about something.

Jason Diggs, Thanks for the tip. The LVS is one of the many versions built by Oshkosh. I forgot what it stands for but I'll check for you, if you want.
