Beautifully done - rich in detail and I feel the story being told as I study the photos. Excellent work!

Thank you! That is a great compliment for me, because in a diorama, the 'feel' is for me always one of the most important things.

No problem Rui! I'm used to it, and I've seen much much worse. Not to mention the pronunciation! :big_grin: Well, it is simply not an easy name for non-Dutch-speakers...

Officers from HMS Hood survey the battle in a 50ft steam picket while a range of pulling boats prepare for a sneak attack.

It was very good to view the models up close and difficult to believe how small they really are. :thumbs_up_1:
