I don't want to make too many words now, 'cause I'm in a terrible hurry. Just wanna show you what the dio looked like at 11am today. There's still a lot of work to be done and I need every wake minute of the day. See you, take care! :) Jens

Thank you so much, lads! I really was about to give up today, but since I got it wrong and now know that there's still Saturday, I'm back on the track! Thanks for your mental support! I could really use it!

Since paint needs to dry and glue needs to cure, I thought I could as well show you what the dio looks like now. At the moment I'm busy with the figures, the last bits and pieces of accessories and some placards and stuff. Maybe I'll be able to finish tomorrow and then have the Staurday for the photos and video of the final reveal. :)
The light on the pics has an orange hue, 'cause I had to close the curtain to take the photos. Too much sunlight, hehehe. In some areas the PVA glue is still wet. The right section of the wall isn't glued down yet. Here we go:

All in all it's close to be finished. We'll see how good and fast I can work on the rest that's missing. Take care, be good and keep on modeling. :D Jens

Hi, guys! I'm waiting for the last bits and pieces to dry and then I'll put everything on the dio base. That'll happen in an hour or two, so I can take pics for the final reveal tomorrow morning and I'll have enough time for a video. :)

This is my last update before the final reveal. The dio base is done. I took the photos on the early afternoon and made use of the wonderful light we had today. Here you go:

Thank you very, very much! It's almost done! A last minute thing to say the least! Didn't want it to be that way, but all of a sudden time started flying. Well, tomorrow's still in time! :)

Thanks a lot, Tommy! This will be exciting after all reveals are sent in. I've seen many great dios, vignettes or "just" vehicles! My first GB and I was close to a heart attack sometimes. I'd have finished weeks ago if I had an airbrush! See ya tomorrow, mate, and once again many thanks! :D Jens
