Little update, Got the ground base paint and a little dirt on today. Wet looking areas just aren`t dry yet. Laid out a few trees. Still playing with the trees.

Cool! 1/24 th scale, I assume.

Ken Hamiltion, the presumed master of this genre, is doing HO dioramas now, he says, because he's running out of roon to store his stuff! In my opinion, the HO's are even more impressive than the 1/24th he was doing.

He's usually at our NNL, in November and Birmingham (Anniston) in March.

Just need to dust the figures with some pastels and finish the hauler.

Well the Dio is 99% complete. I`m sure I`ll find something to add before Atlanta. Just waiting on the "Runner" to get back from Hardscratch KY, we will run off another batch.

You definitely need to take this to an IPMS show and enter it as well, it will make the "tank guys" speechless.

Thanks Wayne. My #1 objective is to bring it to Atlanta so all my ACME brothers can look it over.

After I posted above, I just remembered, it will be going to an IPMS show in March. I will be taking "Whiskey Hollow' and "Pops Texaco" to Cookeville Tenn.

I guess you could call the dio complete. A friend of mine from Kentucky wanted to build the hauler.....so here is what he built. I like to include builds from friends.....it makes them part of the build. What do you think.

The finishing touch. I like the idea of adding items from friends. See you soon.
