My first post here so I thought I'd start with a couple of pics of my recently completed dockside diorama showing the Yukikaze. With the exception of the ship, lorries and figures, everything else is scratch built with plastic sheet and left over PE. I've applied and 'old photo' effect to the pics:

Welcome aboard John.
That certainly is very impressive work. I can't imagine how long it took you but the results were worth it.
