    Hi All,

    Having now got back and unpacked from a long weekend away at Scale Model World in Telford, I am pleased to say that my Kingfisher model which came 3rd in FOTM (July/Aug) was chosen as the best diorama in this years SMW competition. I was lost for words!

    I hope everyone who attended SMW had a great time.

    Cheers

    Steve

    Congratulations Steve.
    I thought this vignette was superb when I first saw it.
    Looks like others were of the same mind.
    Very well done.

    That’s a beautiful piece of work Steve, the parts which really stand out for me are the plumage of the kingfisher, painting of the tree trunk & the water effects. Fantastic diorama & one which you can be truly proud of - bet it’s got pride of place in the display case now. Congratulations on a well-deserved award!
