The boat is getting closer to completion...
It's a steering bracket for the outboard motor.
Dry fit the electronics and batteries.
Cut out the side pieces...now the fitting of them.
Good fit, now start the mahogany planking.
Top deck is being fitted.

This is a forced perspective diorama I made several years ago. In the foreground at the start of a dive is a 1/72 scale Curtiss SB2C Helldiver that I modified by opening the dive flaps, adding Hobbymaster crew, and mounting a PropBlur propeller. The SB2C below is a 1/700 scale Helldiver from Trumpeter. The Yamato is a prepainted 1/2400 scale model from F-Toys. For the water, I used extra thick matte medium colored with Model Master Acryl dark sea blue.

1/64 is "S" scale. HO is 1/87th.How about a slot car diorama in progress?
HO (1/64th) scale. It's currently torn apart to the Styrofoam and being coated in spackle. Then it will be sculpt the rock faces and hill sides and start painting......
Scenario made by a friend. German PanzerJager in Ardennes, December 1944. (click onto image to enlarge).
I'm not really sure if slot cars actually conform to the defined scales, but I've always known them to be referred to as "HO" in the circles I run in.
I know my diorama certainly doesn't conform to a strict scale size. If it did it wouldn't all fit on a 4x8' table....

Super kudos to your friend !
Thank you! You think audiophiles can be OCD? Modelers are living in a whole different universe! He must have two libraries full of reference books.
