@ Jay, you just have to get stuck in mate and see what happens . Thanks for the great comment mate

While talking to slack last night in chat, he reminded me that I hadn't posted anything new about Jake's 2.0 study. Here are a couple of teaser shots. Still not finished, but getting there







Thanks for looking!

It's looking fantastic!!!!      

The attention to detail is really something, i just wish i had the patience to do something like that. There's one big problem i'm having, i just can not remember the name of that figure in the black sweater???? I know i am a pain sometimes but i just can't think of the name of it and i have the figure, this type of problem i get hits without warning sometimes        

hi Clive, the figure is a hybrid, he has a 53 vam body with a mintex head. I hope that helps mate.

Thanks also for the great feedback on the study, makes it all worthwhile. As for patience, just give it a whirl mate, you might surprise yourself

Wow Dal... you're the king of dioramas.

Superb stuff..and the attention to detail is outstanding.

Many thanks Chris, but I have learned a lot from others, Kraka from UAMHQ and his Sherlock dio and MiskertonicNick of flickr to name just a few. I do enjoy building them, though tracking down small items can be very time consuming , but very rewarding!

Great work Dal, fecking loved it. The lights one especially made me giggle.

Awesome Dal! Now after a long hard day at the Ammo Arms bar & Grill
they can relax...

Thanks Ade! , Really pleased that you enjoyed it mate

@ Jim!, A hard day at the bar!

I'm alittle worried about that one thats tangled up in the
Christmas lights though I think he may of drank a bit to much
at the Ammo Arms Bar & Grill....

Like your bar your study has lots of awesome details!

This is my favourite picture out of the lot just now plus it made me laugh and smile

Pleased you liked it Al!

That's the one Dal, yes Mintex, i had them back in the day, they had bendy rubber arms. Once you mentioned Mintex it helped point towards the figure i was trying to remember today, it was Tommy Gunn. I blame the phone masts near my HQ for my memory blanks.

Damn Fantastic Piece my friend.

Did I tell you How I HATE You and how you make this look so easy LOL
