1/87 Vehicle Club member Dennis Raper made a trip this past weekend (May 7-8, 2011) to North Carolina to deliver a special diorama to Discovery Channel's Bobby Goodson (of Swamp Loggers fame) for his birthday. Dennis has been spending all of modeling time since the 2011 East Coast Meet in Massachusetts this past January working on this diorama for the birthday presentation. All the models of machines and vehicles Dennis built for the diorama are replicas of the actual machines used by Bobby right down to having Bo's and Joy's trucks hauling logs. One exception is the crew van built from a Chevrolet instead of a Ford. We'll have expanded coverage of Dennis' terrific diorama appearing soon. For now, enjoy the thumbnails shown and keep a lookout for the expanded article appearing soon! [posted 05/09/2011] |
