A continuation of Lend Lease dioramas

This was my second resin dio, certainly have more experience now .
Starting off with the base from XPS foam base and building it up for the resin.

Comment's welcome, thanks

Thanks Lee.Yes they do have more definition.

That's cool!

I messed with resin back in '78-80 time frame, never since. Is there a concern with the heat, in that it might warp/melt the plastic model?

I poured mine into a plaster pond, with balsa "dock", so melting plastic was not an issue.

Thanks, I've never had a problem with heat from the resin, maybe some resins heat up more. The only problems I had was moving the hot torch to take out the bubbles quick enough not to burn any thing else.Again maybe more modern resins have overcome that problem Edbert.

That'll work, John, excellent water works.
