not bad Pedro!! not bad!! it turned out better than my efforts at a dio!! you need to continue to encourage him, he’s definetly got the talent in place it seems!! later.
I agree he has the talent. If he can do that at 8 , I can only imagine what he is going to be turning out in the future. Let him know that is a great job.
Man, he’s only eight and he did THAT?!! That is incredible! He’s definitely got talent; that’s better than anything I could ever do! Definitely keep encouraging him!
WOW! That is an Impressive Diorama to say the least this kids got talent congradulations fellow DAD!
Looks great!! However, you need to start him out right, historical accuracy. The jeep is wrong era for WWII. The jeep is a M151A2 used from mid-70s till replaced by the HMMWV in late 80s. Correct jeep for WWII was a Willys MB or Ford built GPW, as seen below:
wow. the talent is there.

OK, I quit!!
Love the snow effect. It really gives a feel of a strong snow storm with all of them covered. I would love some more close-ups. Otherwise tell him great job! Better than anything I did at that age.
Thanks for your words guys, he was very happy and proud,when I translated your words.
He used for snow that snow spray can that we use in Christmas.
HeavyArty you are right about the jeep question,but when I told him ,he didn´t care (8 years) you know.
I am going to give you some close up pics, and thanks again,I think your words will contribute that the next time that I will go to a LHS,I will come back with my pockets empty.I don´t mind I like it also,he is for armor,me for aircraft.

That little boy is a big modeler. Composition is a talent / technique that you are either born with or learn after much study. Vasco is a natural, keep them coming, I am looking forward to seeing some more of your work soon.
Give him a big pat on the back, hes done a great job.
Wow, can you give me some materials, too?[;)]
Vasco did an excellent job. The talent must run in the family!
only 8 years old Pedro?? man that is one heck of a modeller in the making [bow][bow][bow][bow]
That is good, keep encouraging him.
WOW! I am jelous! THat is incredible, especially for his age. Tell him It looks great!
He had a good idea for the snow, Ive thought of it but never used it. Turned out good. ANd last of tell your son to keep up the good work.
Pedro,
Your son has done great work, I hope he stays interested in building models for a long time. Our hobby needs more young people like him for it to keep going strong.

Thank you all for your words,I think they are giving a good motivation to my son in the hobby,i give it too.
He is always looking if there is another reply.He is very proud with is dio.
I was hoping that he likes airplanes like me ,but is more fan of armor,ok no problem with that.
I agree with you Matrixone that the hobby needs young people to continue,here in Portugal,a lot of hobby shops are closing ,in Porto were i live ,we have only two.
The young people doesn´t have the pacience or the pleasure for it,it´s life.
Thanks to you all to contribute to my son happiness.
Pedro
Your 8 years old son did that? Oh man, that is way way better than my first. Tell your son, Great Job!!!
Remerber me my first one , long time ago !
Not so bad for a first dio ( exept historic accurancy…) !
Carry on Boy !
