I severely needed a break from the daily contention and violence on the news so I took a little sidestep in my hobby. I decided to do a medium sized civilian based scene. It is fairly far along but here is a teaser.

Wow, Jerry - awesome realism as always. Looks like somewhere in Northern Europe?

Always such a pleasure to see your stellar craftsmanship.
Your compositions and colour choices are inspirational and encourage me to improve my modelling.
Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and beautiful models.

A day above ground is, in my opinion, a good day.

Joe,Dora9 and Dan man,
Thanks guys for the gret words of encouragement. Dan,I am also inspired by the work you do as well bubba ! Keep on pluggin along like I do and maybe one day will will get to where we want to be !
Here are some progress pics. I got the wood chopping area almost done and Mr cat came to inspect. also got to play around with 3 different firms' take on flowers.
I also installed some bushes along the road. This is a lot of fun for me and really outside my wheelhouse so I am getting a kick out of it.
Thanks for looking folks,
J

I love the big range of leaf variety. One of the very many little touches that make your dioramas so lifelike.

You have to be kidding!
The first few photos I needed to do a triple take, as I couldn't tell if is wasn't an actual scenic photo and not part of your diorama.
Geez, what a magnificent touch
Keep 'em coming

Thanks Pete,
Here ya go. Rabbit hutch done. It is just sitting there for the mo and when I wrestle it into its' final position I will make sure the closing strings conform to gravity better. I didn't get too involved here because there will be a small shed roof covering it and so it won't be seen all that much.
