Hi Everyone, its been awhile now since I have posted any work here so I thought I would give you a peek at my latest project. This is going to be a big one, 4 PzIII's, a Tiger I, Possibly a Opel Blitz radio truck, lots of figures, russian rural buildings, lots of trees, and even a stream crossing. The Base has an ID of 3 feet by 2 feet. In the pick the Stug is just to show the size equal to a pz3. Im still shaping foam but here are the pics anyway. Here is the reference pic.

here is what I have so far

So what do you think? Cheers Kevin

wow kevin thats impressive! I have to say that this will be your biggest dio right? Well keep yourself motivated because this one wont be a walk in the park!
Ian

Wow that is a dio of a dio! You have to build the trumpeteer leopold And put that in a super size dio!

I like to see the result!

Kevin,

you're engaged to something special again. Knowing your modeling skills, I can't wait to see more of the in progress pictures. Again you started something impressive !

Good luck with the dio. Hopefully you have alot of rainy days to keep you motivated

Brian

Looks great. Good luck with it, and keep us posted.

Simon

Looking great Kevin, keep me posted.... *caugh* I mean us... :-) :-) :-)

Hey Kev,

I'm glad you've finally come out to the public with the dio... I feel quite priviledged to have shared this idea with you previously... and I'm really glad for you that you are back at modelling - since we last spoke on MSN...

I can't wait to see this beast take shape... knowing you this is going to be something special!

Rudi

Kevin, the ground is too blue and the creek is too brown it looks like hell ! [ just kidding ].
Thats a favorite ref. pic. of mine also. Are you planning on doing the Russian bldgs. too? Also are you going to put the way cool storage bins on the back of the Pzrs? How about all the hitch-hikers on the back of the III's ya gonna do them too?
This is gonna be good, ya gonna go Dragon with the Pzrs?
At least you get to build stuff, I'm still lumbered with work, as in my job type stuff, won't get to relax and build myself till late Sept. early Oct.
More prog. pics come - on get to work.
Cheyenne

Looks like you're off to a good start, Kevin. Very impressive, even at it's earliest stages !

I also want to thank you for the "hidden" advertisement

If you look real close, you will see that one of my boxes that I sent you (from an order you made), has found its way into your diorama :-)

Keep us all posted. If this one turns out anything like your last diorama, this will be a show stopper !!

Cheers !!

Alpen

MMMMM ... russian rural buildings... this sound as celestial music for me
I hope that will see this soon... and if you need something please give me a touch

Carlos

Wow! Your going bigger, and Im trying to go smaller! This is going to be pretty neat. I cannot wait to see it progress over the next 2-3 years! :-) :-)

Here it is - I've bee waiting for this one!

My only advice at this point is to keep your chin up and stamina up also. Feel free to do a 'quick OOTB' build in the middle to keep you inspired.

Great update - GREAT to see you working hard again.

Looking forward to all your usual updates. I love your dios and especially all the different stages in progress. The scene looks excellnt .... ambitious ... but if anybody can pull it off... cant wait!!!!!
Good to see you back in the saddle again

Wow Kevin looks like its going to be another biggie and going by your fantastic dios in the past, it going to be a beauty as well.

I think its a great idea a very big idea also, i have one question where will you store something this big when its done.

Kevin,
Inspiration, ambition, and talent the ingredients for another impressive work, and large to boot, big is so good. I look forward to seeing the progress.

Jay

Kevin -

Another ambitious project and knowing the results of previous dioramas, this will be a work of art to behold. Very anxious to follow progress. I've got all kinds of "stuff" (figures, kits to bits and pieces) I'd be more than happy to contribute to the cause. Just let me know what I can do. You've inspired many of us to get going on projects of our own. Keep us posted,

Blade48mrd

Brother knowing well what big dios mean for us two , i wish good patience and ..patience. I donty say good luck as i know that a modeller with ur level of skills dont need luck , just the time and patience. I ll be here in anything i can help. I know it will be a winner

What do I think......lol......I think you've got enough work for the 2005 and 2006 together :-)

Good luck my friend, keep us posted

Kevin, a huge work is waiting for you here. Keep us posted please, this will be a very nice job. You won't need luck to finish it, your skills will be enough.

I think I just did a NEO moment, because when I saw the size of that dio I think I just stared and said "Woah".


Good luck with it, make sure you take step-by-step pics!! would be awesome to see that behemoth turn into a featured article!!!!

then I can study your technique :-) :-) :-)

best of luck mate.
