Hi folks,
I have some pictures of a dio Ive done. I cant take credit for the tank and figure they 32x 21fst century but the building and ruins are scratch built this is one of my first dios. Would like some input and maybe a name for my dio. You can see it at http://put.url.here http://photos.yahoo.com/pfcmccary
Thanks,PFC

I like it. what method did you use to scratch build the ruins?
As for the name, what about "Fire in the hole!" What do you think?

Well, Basturk
The walls are 3/8 sheetrock I used a sheet rock knife to make the crumble affect on the walls. I used the broke peices of sheetrock ,burnt wood,glass and sand for the debree. I just crumbled the up. The side walk under the debree real concrete this is a little on the heavy side but works fine . Like i said this was one of my first dio I really didnot know about all these prodcts on the market, but thanks to this site Ive learned alot since then . I appreciate yalls coments.
Thanks,PFC

pfc,
the dio's really looking good. To be hounest though, it's hard to see the details, since there are no close-ups.
But... I sure like what I've seen on your pics.

I just finished my M41 so I liked looking at your dio. It looks really good to me. What colors did you paint your figures with?

Hi PFC,
I like the looks of things, though I've got one niggle: the tree just looks like what it is: a broken twig. The bark is too smooth, and to straight: the base should be wider.
Indeed more close-up pictures would shed a more light on things.
