Absolutely not, especially since I had been inspired by someone else.

Apparently purple is a thing for me at the moment. Saw a friend’s Moon Knight with purple shadows and knew I had take a stab at it on my own.

Painted up Wong. Relatively simple model. Purple flame though 🔥

Logan, the Wolverine. Normal clothes feel so much easier to paint than all the superhero spandex. Back to all of that soon enough though.

More model mayhem. This time with Magik. Had fun playing with the new ProAcryl Fluorescent Purple color.

Sabertooth, Apex Predator. I used this model to break up all of the nonmetallic metal painting on Omega Red. With all of the normal clothing textures, this model is relatively normal when compared to the rest of Marvel Crisis Protocol.

Omega Red. This is my most ambitious Non-Metallic Metal piece yet. Not that I don’t have a lot to learn still, but the fear of starting to subside a bit.

Took some time to paint my Shatterpoint terrain. I wanted something brighter than the sandy-desert theme of the box art. My goal was to have something bright but lived in.

Asaj Ventris, Sith Assassin, is the final model in my first Shatterpoint squad. She was awesome to paint and am looking forward to comparable models I’m excited about.

Kalani, Super Tactical Droid for Star Wars Shatterpoint. I’ve decided to stick to metallic points this time around.

Roger! Roger!

Started by slow build with Star Wars Shatterpoint. Thought these guys would be easy, but they were a challenge to assemble.

The Lizard. Dr. Connors. Such a compelling and sad story. Spider-Man villains are so darned cool. You know what else is cool? Painting water!

A friend gave me his Weapon X Bunker since he had to plans to paint it up. The piece was a joy to paint, and I loved experimenting with the colors of the rock. The snows was also an experiment, though not quite as stunning.

Cable is a blast from the future. I like how his arm turned out. I think I’m about ready to tackle Colossus.

I was awestruck by this display. The density of detail between the buildings, people, and ships, is almost overwhelming. This was the last diorama of the series (or the first depending on which way you were coming from). The California State Railroad Museum in Sacramento was worth visiting for this series of dioramas alone.

*Smuggler’s Cove*

This O scale narrow gauge layout, Smuggler’s Cove, built by Michael Flack and the late Geoff Knott in Australia, depicts a fictional New England fishing community modeled after towns in coastal Massachusetts and Maine. Small and large fishing boats and the steamboat Sabino near the Maritime Museum play a prominent role in this coastal diorama. Look for intricate details such as the scratch built lobster traps, floats, and fish crates stacked on the pier. How many seagulls can you spot in Smuggler’s Cove?

*Geoff Knott and Michael Flack*

The late Geoff Knott and Michael Flack were insprred to build Smuggler’s Cove after discovering the history of rum-running along the East Coast of the US, in the carly 1900s, their inspiration for Smuggler’s Cove came after Geoff and Michael traveled to New England and visited Cape Cod, Boothbay Harbor, Bar Harbor, and Kennebunkport, Geoff and Michael helped to popularize O scale models. <Layout furnished by the Australasian Region of the NMRA>.

A long and narrow diorama at the California State Railroad Museum in Sacramento, this display may appear simpler than some of the others I have featured, but the crafting here is still that of a master. The trees in particular are genuine wood, converted to take on the roles from which they had been gathered from (now that was a mouthful).

Chama, NM

This Chama, New Mexico layout is modeled after the actual Denver & Rio Grande Western’s narrow gauge Chama yard and engine facility, circa 1955.

Today this yard and engine facility serves the popular Cumbres & Toltec Scenic Railroad. Many of the structures in this diorama were built from scratch, known as “scratch built” structures, because no kits existed for them. Notice the depot, roundhouse, coaling tower, and vegetation in this layout.

Bill Peter and Jim Booth

Bill Peter, owner of Peter Built Locomotive Works (PBL), and Jim Booth designed and built the Chama, NewMexico layout to show the advantages of S scale narrow gauge trains taking less room. For many years Bill and Jim took this layout to numerous train shows and conventions around the U.S. to promoteS scale narrow gauge trains.
