Hey Charles this is just awesome, I absolutely love it. Your amazing what you do with pieces of plastic. Man the detail work is super. You say your incorporating a C130...really, how. Is this something your going to scratch build! I can’t wait to see the next progress post.

Thanks Joe. appreciate the support. I will only be building the cargo bay, the rear door that is, of the C130. I managed to find a 1/33 scale papper model which I am going to try to build with some modification. My first try with a papper model. It was an expensive buy. It cost me around 46 euros. It was the only thing I could come close to 1/35.

Doesn't Italeri have a C130 in 1/48 scale? That's a little too out of scale to try and put together with a 1/35. Or what do you think??

I was reading through your post and was wondering what kind of diorama did you have in mind? It must be a long diorama. by the´way, how long is this model, complete with trailer?



Sorry I forgot about your question Erik. The entire setup is about 75cm long but both can be seperated so I can put them in my dispaly case.

Wow! that is long. Like Joe say, I can't wait to see the C130 you will build. This must really be a big diorama. Continue the good work ti.
