Yes. Funny I look at that now and there's 20 things I would different. I am never satisfied when it comes to models.

Thanks Gene, keep saying that and I'll have to put you on my Christmas list.

I always liked dioramas based on photos or paintings.

Awesome. Military models are clearly some of the best. I watched a "pro" show how he did a German tank, etc. Had some great tricks to make it realistic. That shot above is one of the best I've ever seen; it's a wonder the blades are not moving.

Wow. Some great model work here. Just amazing. Dave, I love your "restoration" model.

I built many models during my teen years and later, but nothing in the past few decades. Maybe I should take up the hobby again.

I do have a couple of AutoArt 1/18 die-cast models that I keep on my desk hutch to remind me of good times past...

If you do that you could end up with cabinets full of models. This is just one of them.

Very nice work!

There are some nice board sites and discussion groups on modeling, these days. I like Missing Lynx, for WW2 armor.

Always liked Steve Zaloga's US armor work. He has written several very good armor-history books, too.
