Over the past decade or so I have scratch built four dioramas for the CASM museum and have had loads of fun doing it.They are in 1/16th scale and are what I call storyboard dioramas of particular events in aviation history.I hope you like my stuff !:) Cheers! John.

Hi John,

These are superb! If I am not mistaken, someone (maybe you?) posted some photos of your work on HyperScale and I was in awe then as well. Great stuff! Thanks so much for sharing it here.

I finally finished "The Homecoming" diorama for the CASM in Ottawa.This is the fifth 1/16th scale diorama that I have done for them.
It depicts a returning airman from WW1 looking at his pre-war experimental aircraft project and contemplating whether to finish it or not after all the horror he has seen at the front.
