Here's my completed project for the Aircraft Diorama Group Build. The Build Log is at:
http://forum.ww1aircraftmodels.com/index.php?topic=7714.0 This is my first attempt at a Diorama and, as I've stated in the Build Log, is admittedly more an enhanced Display Base then a true Diorama! The aircraft was completed with the Pheon Decal set, Aviattic "Naval Hex" Lozenge Decals, and an added Gas Patch Parabellum Gun in the Observer's cockpit. Various After market PE Tools were used, the refuelling Drum is an Aviattic Small German version, and the trestle work table and step ladder are scratch Built. The Display Base is finished with a Cobblestone Sheet product, planking from popsicle sticks, and some scrounged rail tracks to represent the Jetty surface in front of the Hangars at the Zeebrugge Seaplane Base in 1917.
First, the aircraft as completed;
