This incredible diorama is by Dr Fester over on ARC, aka Pete Hudson - some of you may remember him from Duxford in 2005.

Anyways, let your eyes feast on this

Wow...

All I can say though, is that I sure hope they take off before the tide goes out

Wow, that is nice, Nevster. Thanks for pointing it out to us ! I'll be sure to go back and read his build article, hoping to get some insight into his water technique.

Cheers !

Well, I thought the water looked too glossy :dum:

Crikey!!!

That is amazing detailing and weathering.

I simply don't have the patience for that.

He has done a fantastic diorama.

Sick! Poor guy. Imagine having to live up to such expectations... oh my gosh!!

Aiyeeeee...

Yeah it's ok if you like that "super-accurate" real stuff.

I echo Drop Bear's comments. I am astounded by this kind of work but I simply don't have the patience to pull it off myself.
