Merry X'mas! As I have already taken a new year vacation, I am back to my home in Tokyo. I can't use paint sprays at my rental room in Hokkaido and I did not build any new models or dioramas in this year. This time, as a season's greeting, I send several photos of my diorama that was build several years ago. I built it when I lived in Kobe. This is a 1/144 scale diorama of "Urutra Seven" that is a one of popular 1968s TV Special effect ('Tokusatsu', 特撮) program in Japan. Title of this episode was "Ultraseven vs. King Joe Planets in Conflict". When I built this diorama, I visited the KOBE harbor and was very surprised at that the same warehouse in this scene was remained there then. I was very lucky to be able to refer to real building. Since I am afraid of that lots of members do not know this program, I have attached URL of You Tube movie of this scene below. The scene starts at about 11 minutes point from the start. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ncCkjLWXFAI
Have a happy new year! Best Regards, Yutaro Yutaro HONMA attached the following image(s): DeAGOSTINI 1/250 the YAMATO, 1/250 the AKAGI.

Yutaro Its always wonderful to hear from you and to see your latest projects. Looking at your posting your shkills in creating dioramas was exceptional even that few years ago from what you have posted here. A pity you have not been able to put time into your modelling but work and other commitments do so often get in the way do they not. Hope you have a very enjoyable christmas time and wish you a happy, safe and properous New Year. Kind regards Tony Happy Modelling

Hi Tony! Thank you for your comment on my post. I guess that I'll be back to Tokyo within 2018,and re-start building models and diorama then. I would like to send photos of my new models and diorama in the near future. More than that, I hope to live with my family. Best Regards, Yutaro DeAGOSTINI 1/250 the YAMATO, 1/250 the AKAGI.

I am sure you will get some time to allow you to make some more lovely model displays. I have this week off work so today my plans are to spend some time on my constitution model. Still have half the deck to finish. Hope that life treats you well and you get some personal time back soon. Happy Modelling
