Your dioramas are almost unfathomable. 1/87th scale is H.O., right? The level of detail and realism is unbelievable. I am very impressed. The detail is amazing. Whereabouts are you in ME? I lived in Rockland for a short time (one year and six weeks in '80-'81). Our family takes a vacation in Union on Senebec Pond every summer (family cottage)... thanks for sharing this amazing stuff!!!
Chester, great work with the blocks. I love the structure. I added a link to this photo album on a PDF tutorial that I made on building foundations and walls so I hope it will help lots of other modellers. Thanks,
You have fascinated me for your work. The true fact is - When I like somebody's craftsmanship and imagination (Usually there are not too many in the world in my strict judgment), they are GOOD. Your work stands by next to those great master craftsman always fascinated us. Many of whom unfortunatley no longer with us anymore.I can only hope that you would wish to teach your skill and technics to a right person along the way. You are at the same time an architect, an engineer, a set director, an artist, a historian and most of all - a story teller.
Absolutely love the buildings and grounds in your work. Would love to know some of the techniques you use to weather the buildings and more about getting the effects of the boards on the buildings. Stunning work!

Recently took a look at your dioramas and photos via the link you provided on eBay (Harbor diorama for sale). Would like to tell you that the work you have done is fantastic. Love the paint work on the buildings.
