That´s all for today. Next update will be the finished diorama.

Magnificent renditions of everything Anders all the way down to the tire tracks in the sand. Beautiful work!

Anders, that is just great work.   The motorcycle collection is superb.
However, in the photo of the shop with the "boss' helper" working on the bike, his hand on the floor (with the wrist watch) just looks too long from the wrist to the knuckles.   Kind of distorted or mutated.
Thanks for all the photos.

Gonna need some time to soak in all the neat details. Wow!

Same here!  I can enjoy those 27 pix one per day for almost a month and still not soak it all in (but I'm gonna come back many times and try!)  ;D  Very inspiring. -- Dallas

If I can't publish that model I will hang myself. A couple of photos were indistinguishable from 1:1 scale. Most satisfactory.

By the way, Anders, I have scheduled your HO garage/shop for the December Modelers' Annual.

Need to go back and study these all over again.  So much detail to take in at one time.  Excellent.

Wonderful work, Anders!

It is good to see this amazing project broken into little photo bits. There is sooo much going on and it's a lot to comprehend.

The two month are absolutely worth the wait.

Its all to much to take in one go - 2 days on and I'm still finding detail - lovely work and attention to detail I have worked in places just like this and stored all those bits in the same way you never know it might be useful one day they never was but that's life ! superb just keep it coming but in smaller doses !!

Thanks very much guys MUCH appreciated!

Dave.

Thanks for pointing out the hand. No problem to re-work that and it shall be done. A scalpel and Magic Sculp is all it takes. As can be seen on the box art for the figure the reason I re-placed the left hand was because I didn´t think it was sculpted very well and of course I ended up with another funny one. The right hand obviousley had to go as well otherwise my guy wouldn´t have been able to work on the bike the way I wanted him to do.

A couple of people have asked by private e-mails how the two mopeds were painted and as it was a pretty complex task I could just as well post an SBS here at the forum if there´s interest. Please let me know.

Again thanks very much guys!

You're right Anders, that original hand looked very poor.   I think by just shortening the distance between wrist and knuckles will work.
I think we would all enjoy reading your SBS on painting the mopeds.   Thanks
