Just beautiful, Alan.
Jeff
Alan
It looks fantastic! Thanks for sharing it with us.
Alan, you should be proud of what you have created, it is very nice and would look great in my layout. Hehehe
Thanks Jeff, John and Martin...and Yes Martin...it would fit right in with your Award Winning Sierrawest Ship Yard...
Alan
Alan....
Great stuff.
Thanx
Bob
Alan, excellent work. This may sound dumb but what stands out most for me is the big half dead tree.

Hey guys...Thanks for the nice comments..
Alan
Terrific model Alan, especially detail to that level in HO. And some outstanding ground level photography!
Very nice Dio Alan,
two thumbs up !!!
Eric Québec city
Wow...truly inspiring work. Makes me want to level up my modeling. Spectacular pics!
John
Thanks for the comments Mike, Eric and and John. Yeah, I was bummed because I finished the diorama yesterday and couldn't find the battery charger to my digital camera so I had to use my iPhone to take the pictures...
Alan
Some of your best work ever Alan.
Outstanding work Alan. I should be half that good.
Jim
Thanks Dustin and Jim. By the way Dustin...when are we getting an update on your Twin Mines project? The last picture you showed of the rough layout looked like it was going to be a good one...
Alan
Superb Alan, beautiful dio.
Thanks Jan!
In reference to all the great comments, I only have one thing to say! "DITTO"!
Tom ;D
Really great scenery work Alan. 8)

Thanks Tom, Gregory and Donato...I like the clapping stick man!
Alan,
Really nice diorama. Overall coloring is fantastic and can almost smell the dry rot by looking at your great photos you posted ! 8) 8) 8)
Tom
That was a rotten thing to say.... ;D
Donato...you forgot the Cymbal sound after your joke. Thanks Tom for the nice comments.
Alan
Very well done!
The tree trunk is sagebrush, right?
Dave
Seattle
Thanks Dave...yes, the trunk is Sagebrush. I bought it from Scenicexpress since I live in Chicago and it doesn't grow here.
Alan
Alan,
Have you sent the pictures to MRH magazine? They have a section "Is it a model?" or something like that. Your diorama deserves every right to be there.
Vilius
Hi Alan:
That is A wowser!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Very very nicely done. Love your coloring and weathering.

Wow! What model iPhone and how did you do the cloud backdrop? Also, will we get to take our own photos of this great model at the Expo?
Thanks Mike. Yeah, unfortunately this guy isn't coming to the craftsmen show...I didn't feel like driving 16.5 hours from Chicago... In regards to the backdrop, it's from Joey at Trackside Scenery.
