This scale diorama in 1 / 72 was made in 2008.
I used two Dukws, a P38 and a Bofors box "Gun & Tractor".
The side of the boat was made ​​in scracht.

That looks great, brilliant water effect and a very interesting subject - I assumed to start with that this was a what-if, but I did some research and found this http://news.webshots.com/photo/14714880 ... 2104RRrbEW , I assume its what the model is based on?

Very well done.

Yes, it was through this picture and other pictures i got this idea.
These situations are unknown and it is always good to show these innovations.

Lot of originality in this dio, the kind which tells a story!
Excellent achievement, too.
