That's great - I love the combination of models!

I remember playing Battlefield Heroes with my brother online. This diorama instantly brought back my memories of that good time. Ron, you can even make a cartoon look realistic! Amazing work! I especially like the shape of the gunner's nose. That picture from the side is pure gold. Can the street lamp even shine?

Looks great Ron. Off to the front pages.

Thanks heaps buddy and no sorry the light doesn't shine, I didn't even think about doing that but I do have other WW2 Toon dios I want to do so I'll had some street lights which will work.

Thanks Shawn.

Hi All,

World War Toon - Panther Tank.

Recipe.

Panther and Figure - the Panther is from Meng and was built straight out of the box and the figure is from Yufan Models. I used electrical wire for the head set and speaker cords and both the tank and figure were painted using Vallejo Paints.

Base - is high density foam and the ground work is spakfilla and once dry it was painted and weathered. The fence was done using balsa wood and the grass tufts are from Army Painter and the lower shrubs and the taller bushes are from Woodland Scenics.

Oh yeah, I love the foilage camo job on this. Very nice Ron.

Back to the front pages. I have got to check out this game.

I agree with Tamer - and I love the camo spots on the commander's uniform. This is another fun diorama.

Hi All,

Ghostbusters Toon Ecto 1.

Recipe.

Ecto 1 - is from a company called Titan Merchandise and is a vinyl toy which is around 4.5" long. The vinyl toy is nice but it needed a paint redo to it which was painted and weathered using Vallejo Paints and then I used a gloss varnish for the windows and lights. (Note-the last picture is what it looks like out of the box before painting)

Base - is high density foam and the arch way was cut out and I made doors using balsa wood and the windows are square plastic card section. I got the GB sign of the net and resized it and then glued it to some plastic and the rod holding it to the building is a piece of paperclip I cut to size.

The newspapers and the Ecto 1 number plate on the front of the base were also of the net and resized and glued into place.

That looks great from every angle Ron. Nice work and off to the front pages.

I so can't wait for the new movie. I will miss seeing the old characters and hope for a few camoes with this new film.

[JDeck]

Great job repainting the toy, it looks great as well as the diorama. When I was a kid I saw the Ecto 1 in the movie car museum. It's definitely the coolest movie car ever.

[Starchaser]

That's really cool! Great garage and the paint job is excellent.

Hey Ron, sorry for being late to the party. This toon Ecto-1 looks great! You really caught that animated style of the model. For some odd reason the material and design reminds me of a cake figure. The wife of a friend of mine creates cakes for a living. She does all kinds of cool stuff - STAR WARS too - with a material that looks very similar to this. It almost looks like plastalina clay although it's vinyl. Impressive how paint can make any material look way different.

Thanks heaps DM and actually it when I first got it my wife said it looked like a cake topper and I have seen people do amazing cakes designs using that fondant candy they use on cakes.
