Just wondered if there were any good books relating to Diorama construction or hints and tips.

Here are four, Stealth. You might find them cheaper at www.amazon.co.uk, or try www.addall.com and do a search for "diorama book". :)

Does this mean we can look forward to seeing diecast F-117s on a military airfield diorama some time in the future.....??? :D

Not F117's - Hawker Typhoons!!!!!!

Been browsing Evilbay for the last week and reliving my childhood Airfix Style.

Purchased three Typhoon Mk1B's; a Control Tower; 2 Refueling Sets; an Emergency set and a recovery set; oh and two boxes of RAF personnel.

Corgi or no one else can produce a Diecast Typhoon, so I went for the next best thing.

Might not be next week or Next Month, but a three Typhoon Airfield scene with refueling vehicles is on the cards.


Oh and also purchased a P40 Kittyhawk with Shark's Teeth; a german recon set (that's for the Corgi Desert FW190) and a Douglas Skyraider, oh my flashbacks to Christmas 1972!!!!!! :eek: :eek:
