Jean-Luc certainly epitomizes the character of a Master Modeler, with his outstanding Model / Diorama construction, Photography, and Writing. Well done Jean-Luc !!!

Jean-Luc,
Good job and what a thrill it must be! Also, I have not seen any updates of your Aleutian diorama, did you finish it?

Hi all!
Uhhh..., what can I say...

Thanks!
More than the build, I think the overall layout of the article is great! Tamiya mag France has an excellent graphic designer (

Of course I didn't forgot to mention Aeroscale and Nigel's P-47 SIG.

One of the first lessons I learned in the military is that you should always hang with the best, most skilled people. That is why I like this site. Skill by association?
Good job Jean Luc.

I know Jean-Luc (TedMamere) is too modest to mention this,in the forums, but I will 
Congratulations are definately in order as Jean-Lucs excellent P-47 diorama has its own 10 page,,yes ten pages!, article in the March/April French edition of the Tamiya Model Magazine International.
Wow, how did I miss this? Please accept my belated congratulations, Jean-Luc!

That's great -to snag a feature in a magazine is great, to go 10 pages is awsome.
Well done.
