MecModels send us news of their latest diorama release in 1/35 scale. A resin City Street Scene representing a bar façade typical of Vung Tau or Saigon during the Vietnam conflict.

It's not the building you are paying for, it's the worker in front of the building

I’m glad you like it and if you can do this in 3 hours; I just found myself a new master-builder Seriously: there’s no way you will do this in 3 hours; the cutting and glueing of the rooftiles alone will most likely take longer than that. Anyway I thought this would make an original addition to the (still) limited market of Vietnam dio accessories / buildings. Besides; with a skirt that short, the BRAVO*6 ‘boom boom girl’ must have a place to hide, you don’t want her to get cystitis right?

best regards,
Mark

Hey guys,

I'm no master builder,but the structure itself is very simple.Your right Mark,there's really not much out there for Viet Nam dios.That's something Randy at Dios Plus might consider.Village huts would be nice and more downtown street buidings.
Now,if the "boom boom"girl was a bonus piece,the price could be reasonable.
