Hello. !
Just a few pictures of my last work. Still in progress not finished yet.
Long time ago, I saw a picture where a scene from the First World War appears. In this scene saw an industrial area with
a locomotive and some very damaged vehicles. As I have been unable to locate the aforementioned photo,
I made the diorama from my memory. ( more or less )

Holy smoke I thought that first photo was the missing photo!
Very well done Xavier!
 
Fantastic work Xavier. My club is planning a WW1 scene for it's display layout at next year's Brisbane Model Train Show.
 
I love the black and white image. It so enhances the "vintage" feel. It looks like a photo ready to go into the day's newspaper showing the devastation of war. Great job!
 
There looks to be a crater under the ash pan of the locomotive. This, and the fact the loco's rear end is raised up, makes me wonder if some of the devastation wasn't caused by the boiler blowing up. You do superlative work, Xavier! Love all the bricks laying around, the cab roof being torn and blown back. This must have been a brass locomotive, as the sheet metal looks the correct prototypical thickness. I am really impressed! Are you a military modeler; or, a Model Railroader. What ever your affliction you are very good at it!

Hello !

First of all, apologize for not being available in the forum too many days.

And, thank you very much for your kind comments. I really appreciate such comments from others railroad modelers.

Well, after some days of work this is the result until today....
