again not all painted and not near your guys levels but trying to build up a dio with the kids - church in background is something I made out of wood and still working on that I saw an example of on line - and various old pictures - not sure its to scale but close about 3 feet tall.

anyway hope you enjoy

Super :!: Good inspiration :!: Been itching to try some scenes like that. Have everything to do it but the time. :roll: Lots of time and work in those scenes. I really love the Bazooka team about to fire out of the window. The lighting and photography really add to the scenes. 8) Keep up the great work. :wink:

Everything looks great but your pics sure took a long time to down load for some reason.

Still very nice looking dios.

I believe its probably because the originals are quite large and this forum's software might be trying to downsize them to the allowable size.

Sorry guys for the pic sizes downloads fine on my computer and laptop when i check it - they range from 700Kb to 1.3 mb - maybe too much. Yes two of the buildings are flyboy if flyboy first names starts with an "a" ( dont want to say his name) the large church is built by myself mostly wood based on stuff seen on line and saving private ryan- I am still finishing the back of it and the street for it - streets , road and labs stuff made scratch. Myself and kids painted most vechicles and soldiers - we are getting better but need to work on it more - I also have a tank I got on e bay that might even be yours jnewboy once I get some more stuff painted and built we might through it in a dio an post if you dont mind - We bought one tank a few years ago and the two buildings which kind of gave us the insperation to try and build a 1/18 ruin church and eventurally make a dio as we save up and add to things. I think flyboy is the guy who told me about this site - its inspirational and has some great stuff you guys do on it . Keep up the good work.
