Jim another master piece, I love how you have done the water and the little bits like the two row boats tied up.
I could look at this all night.

Hey all,
Great work there. Maybe if I can get the builds right I might try a dio but I think it will be a few months before I give that a try......very little artistic ability here...lol

This is one of my JB favourites, as well as all the others! and it shows what you can do with a number of smaller ships, and docks, and buildings to tell a story. It makes it difficult now to build just a single ship.
Well done Battle Fleet Models for supplying these little gems.

As usual with Jim's stuff, there is some kind of haze around the diorama, not to mention this incredible level of fine details, I really like it -good bit of writing too!
