Good after noon all of my friends and colleagues...last day, i was walking out, from Naval academy, as part of my project work, in UAV, i saw some dioramas there, was roughly finished, and wasnt scale.,..even though, it was a nice scene to see....and yes was an eye opener to me, as most of my works on diorama was in dust at my grand home...so when i came back home, my first job was to dust out all of my dioramas, clean it, and arranging for a redisplay....

[rathikrishna]

most of my dioramas are fully scratch built, and done around 15 to 18 years back, as part of my exhibition displays in institutions...in this occasion, first of all i thanks to one person, is Christopher Payne, author of the book , Encyclopedia of model making...which, one inspired me in 100 % in model making..with ample of ideas...and yes sure, its time to say,thanks to all of my scale model kit makers, include, Academy, Minicraft, Haswgawa, Dragon, Italeri, Swezda, and more..why,? because i learned all scratch building tecnics from this scale model making...and yes, a special thanks to respected Mr Channa Somaiah, and his son Mr Shivkumar, for delivering me these kits. on that time, my routine was like this..work around the clock, as a foreman in Maruthi udhyog, and collect overtime, up to 1st, and ran for the kits...so at home, quarrel with wife....so any how, now i realizes that these effort makes me a good modeller, and at present it worths...from my Government...

[rathikrishna]

Most of my Dioramas were based on military subjects, but also was on nature and matter...it will take a great labor to make all dioramas re worthy...so now i have started my work, with the helps of friends and some colleagues...this picture shows my dream force against global terrorism...
