hi there sufian,

Nice dios u have got there, i like the one with the german troops walking in 2 files..
so far i only know one person who builts dioramas, he was one of the few specialized model shop owner here until he sold it off to another person who now only sells action figures! Maybe i'll try to built some in the future.

Managed to catch your pics Kenny. Nice clean builds. Your Draken brings back good memories as it looks like the SAAB Viggen from Airfix which I built as a kid.

I'm no figure expert, that will be Floogen but your MACV-SOG looks a bit glossy. Maybe its the flash I guess. By the way do you know where to get hold of a box of Dragon MACV-SOG, they're quite rare as well as the NVA Sappers and Dragon's Vietnam weapons set?

I think modelling doesn't have anything to do with age. We are all here irrespective of age, race, religion, experience because we all share one common passion, Modelling. When it comes to modelling we are all equal coz we all understand the problems, frustrations, the joys and satisfaction of building a model. That plus most of us enjoy sniffing glue (hehheh).

Look forward to seeing more builds. Maybe you can do a dogfight dio.

You're right the model is quite glossy, i didn't apply a clear coating.. but those are my older models, i'll post more once i could take pics of my more recent models.
I dunno where to get more of this kit, I got mine from parkson's in sungei wang(i think) years ago. Try HLJ.com, or hobbyeasy.com, maybe they have some in stock?

Opie,

I finally saw how static grass looks like thanks to Silantra. It looks great but to order from Overseas, sakit. Too expensive for wide scale use.

Here's a suggestion. Get the camel hair brush (white color) used for wood varnishing. Trim to desired length. Very easy. Stick as you would using static grass. Paint to desired color. In fact I use it for long grasses and it absorbs color very well. Silantra has seen it at my house. You can also check with him.
