Thanks!

Very nice, good work on the landscape and the palms are spot on for the scale.

Cheers/Jan

Good work, Rui!

Did you also produce that sunset shot on the site's home page?

--Karl

Yep Karl!

It's another one of my creations, but only 50x50 pixels in size
Thanks (Karl and Jan)

Cheers,
Rui

Beautiful work Rui!

makes me wanna go on holidays

WOW!...and in 1/700 scale. That is truly awesome, Rui. Great work.


Cheers,
Mike

Beautiful work, Rui! Very rich color palette and excellent detail, as always.

Well done Rui, you've captured the feel of a beach landing nicely.

Frank

This works really well, Rui, and we now expect this high standard from you - 5 points!

Thank you guys!

You are really too kind
Cheers,
Rui

great work, love the shadows on the first few pics... cheers

hey Rui, sorry I've got to be critical on that one! What i see here is not a diorama, but some pictures. Those are so much sunlit that it just destroys most of the details and therefore shows a not so accurate vision of your diorama. i personnaly prefer the one you took at your show where IO indeed could see that you did again a very nice work

Hi Jean-Bernard

You have to wait for me to upload the remaining 15 photos (my usual 360º photo shoot and overall/detail views) until the gallery issues are solved

These are the dramatic ones
Stay tuned...

Rui,

lovely! Very "Pacific" and a good scene. Every detail is nice, from tape and foil trees (works great!) to ocean and beach and ship weathering. Great stuff!

hi rui, very nice and the scale and the details...very impressive. feels like home seeing those palm trees and sandy beach. the areial shots of the LST and trucks are nice. thanks for sharing. ed

Thanks Ed

Just a quick note to say that the MOD is updated with 16 photos.
Thanks (again)
