1:48 Battle of Britain Diorama

[Biggles]

That looks brilliant Dave...
... there's a endearing fragile quaintness about these late 1930s vehicles that you have captured perfectly.

When this pandemic is over we're going to have a great time seeing all your vehicles and buildings in diorama settings.

I'm still masking-up Spitfires and Hurricanes, prior to airbrushing some colour on them.
It's perfect spraying weather (warm and sunny) where I can open a window to let my spray booth extractor pipe out.

Careful with your extractor pipe.
Joke - what do you call someone who used to like tractors?

Yes An ex-tractor fan.

Sorry.

[Red Lancer]

Amazing!

Hi Zak,
Nice work.
Is the joke a Grandad or Dad joke...
Cheers,

Grandad.

As I have reached page 20 I am wondering whether to start part 2?

[councilman]

The Thompson re-fueler is a strange looking machine.
Great stuff,
Andy.

[zak]

I have just about finished the Thompson fueller, I put the nozzles for the fuel pipe and oil pipe in a safe place, still attached to the resin runner, so its bit enough.
Now where did I put it?
I can't find it anywhere, hopefully they will turn up.

[zak]

Pictures, so far.

[Haddock]

Sure is a strange looking beast.
                                          I think this is becoming a bit more than a BoB diorama, more
like a treatise on WW2 airfield vehicles. Very impressive. It could even overshadow the aircraft!

The aircraft enthusiasts seem to forget the amount of infrastructure and manpower need to launch their much loved Hurricanes and Spitfires, with only one person in them.

[councilman]

I thought the pilot did every thing. Carrying his tool box in the back of his Morgan...
Andy.

[Bigkev]

Hi Zak,
Another fine model to add to your now extensive collection.
What's next, a 'Morgan' for the pilot, plus obligatory tool box as Andy suggests.
Cheers,
Bigkev

[zak]

No, but here is a start.

[Bigkev]

Hi Zak,
Is it a compass swinging platform?

Bigkev

I did draw it with a compass, but no it isn't.
Try again.
