You have achieved a masterpiece, Wiking (yet another one). Personally, I've been missing your fantastic dioramas here on the forum, focusing on a specific type of vehicle (land, sea, or air), with abundant depictions of different animals, a great sense of humor, and packed with amazing details everywhere you look. :love: :notworthy: :love: :notworthy: :love: :notworthy:

This one is no exception, and once again you've offered your fans everything we never tire of seeing. While everything in it is remarkable, my favorite pieces are the giraffe drinking water (I love how well-executed its pose is) with the butterfly on its back and the monkeys climbing on the plane's wings. What manufacturer are these? :shock:

Considering the penguins are being transported by the plane, Konrad, I rather think they're being taken to Africa to conduct some acclimatization experiment to the savannah or jungle ecosystem, or something like that. :tongue:

My very best congratulations for this marvellous creation, Wiking! :thumbup:

@ Konrad
Penguins in Africa?
Skipper. Kowalski, Privat, Rico.
Fun fact. My stash offered me only four Penguins.


@ Santi Perez.
:oops:

... the giraffe ...
... butterfly on its back and the monkeys climbing on the plane's wings. What manufacturer are these?

The giraffe is from a 3D printer (Czech Republiic ) company.
The butterfly is from: BUSCH 1153 Kleintier Set (1/87).
The monkeys are from White Stork.


Thank you All for your kind text.
