  This is my Consolidated PBY-5 Diorama. I used styrofoam as a base. I painted it with various types of blue. The water is made of transparent silikon  - the cheapest available at the Home Depot. White color for the crestwaves and as a finish a clear coat on overall surface. I had my problems with doing the photographs, because daylight and artifical light did not bring that stormy mood to the pictures which I wanted to express.  So finally I did the shooting outdoor a few minutes before and for a second time a few minutes after heavy rainfalls. I like the result now - maybe a bit too dark and blue now, but....

  The idea for this diorama was given by a modeller from the US. Once I read an article somewhere on the internet. This guy dedicaded his PBY to this grandfather who served on the PBY at the mediterranean theater during WWII. At the same time I did some experiments to improve my way to model "water". So the idea raised to combine both, the built of a great looking flying boat and the diorama-set with the water.
