This is a very nice looking dio, with the wood of the jetty, the water and the Hanriot biplane! And not to forget the sailorlike coiled ropes ...
I really like it!

Is this the recently released (March?) weekend edition? In this case your speed is even more impressive!

Cheers,
Frank

Looking at this I am surprised that you did not put too much effort into the aircraft - you could have fooled me! The water is very good - the more so for a first effort. Th dock platform is also realistic and the taught rope holding the aircraft in place gives the impression of movement in the water. In all an excellent diorama.

I am happy you think water tourned out good... i find it is a great point of attraction for the eye and adds interest to a model.
and it is also fun to model....  :)
