My favorite figure so far.

Of course, the day is young.

mine too, the sniping marine

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

I begin to feel the shots whizzing past

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! Well, it is simply not an easy name for non-Dutch-speakers...

Bombastically good.
In the truest sense of the word.

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.

TY for sharing EJFoeth



Cheers,
