Awesome Ski !
... I worked in graphics with diorama guys in our National natural science museum back in the 80s.
You could've shown them a thing or two!
The moss is exceptional!

"Started 12 years ago"...... wow, you got me beat. I thought the almost two years it took me to complete my 1/16 King Tiger with full interior was a long time.
Keep up the good work.

Thanks, Barley.

No worries, Kevin. My "Hue City" dio was 10yrs in the making, so this is nothing new. I try to never rush my builds or put a time frame on them, otherwise it wouldn't be any fun. You're good, 2yrs is no problem.

Amazing job! Any idea how many hours are on this one?

Thanks, G.

Interesting question, G. How many hours,................hmmmmm,.......................well. This dio was started just shy of 12yrs ago with off and on work, so that's not calculable. I never count the "cost/time" of my work, that would make it a job. Let's just say, if it's still fun, time is no factor. It's all about the journey and sometimes when I get done it's a letdown. As in, "Heck, now what do I do?" That's not an uncommon response; many guys say the same thing.

It's been a long time coming, Brother.
