This one is almost done. I have to give the entire Dio a flat coat of clear. and dusting. The white puddles in the road are just that. The white glue and water mixture is not dry yet. When it is it will be clear and show the dirt under it like a mud puddle. Sorry for the lousy photos. My Asian son will be coming over to take good photos with his camera this week. I will be glad to be done with these projects. It will mean a nice vacation away from the building.
















Go here to see all the photos so far.

Is this another consignment project or a personal one.
It's quite a massive diorama. Well done.

Hi Dave. Impressive both in size and the amount of work that went into it. How long is it? Must be at least one metre long? Is it for the museum as well?

Love the trucks .... and theres so much to see. Nice one.

Thanks again all.

Scott and Frank, this is a free commission (if there is such a thing). It is 44 1/4 inches long by 22 1/2 inches wide. It will be dedicated at the Museum on the 12 of June. Glad to get it done.
