Now if we're talking about custom Dioramas, Wilfred E has the best I have ever seen. They are outstanding. It is completely worth it to look through all 50+ pages.

If nobody's got pics of the starfish machine, just google it. And pick images when you google.

I hope my English is understandable, I write using the Google translator.
In many years of collecting I have seen many models well made, it is difficult to choose one in particular. Surely the choice is very subjective and focuses on the area that you prefer: in my case crawler cranes.
So definitely an exceptional model is the model Dutchman EEF (American 7260 crane scale 1/50).
But perhaps what impressed me most of all is this:

DeWoc,

The high-rise diorama is mine, and it depicts a Manhattan high-rise job, featuring the TWH Manitowoc 4100W Tower Crane. I have been adding little tidbits here and there on it.







There are some outstanding talented folks out there with truly fantastic custom-building skills that I can only envy. My hat's definitely off to all of them.
