O scale diorama
« on: June 24, 2015, 09:20:40 AM »
Hello gents

Some of you may have seen this diorama of mine at the show in cape town a couple of months back. Had some nice sun recently so decided to get the old girl out and take some pics of her.
Regards
Wes

Thanks for the kind words.

Toying with the idea of selling it now. I have had enough pleasure from it. If I cant sell it, I may just break it up and use parts for my next project.

Selling okay, but breaking it up that's criminal.  :eek:

Nooooooo, that is to awesome to break up..... You need to either keep it as display or sell it as is to a collector.
That is seriously art.....  :thumb:

Thanks Evert.

The Problem is finding a collector who would buy something like this. Anyone have some suggestions about how to sell this sort of thing?

Hi Wesley,

What kind of amount are you thinking of ?
Ask Ed, he is connected on quite a few forums and I'm sure there will be someone.

Cheers.

Bring it to the next show, place a for sale sign in front of it and see what happens.

Im not sure what I would sell it for. I know i would never get my money back, but that doesnt concern me. The fun of building it was worth way more.

Ill bring it to the next show and see what happens.
