Mantis miniatures has some good stuff. Also for general dock items, U models may be worth a look.

Hi Mike,
Are they out of the States?


Yes, according to Industria Mechanika's FAQ page, they're located in Pittsburgh, PA USA.

For even more choices; I found these on eBay:
Reality in Scale ‘Water Birds’


And now, Mr. Hitchcock would like to say a few words to you... 🦆

Love Hitchcock Mike.
Think I'm done with this.
Decided to sculpt my own gulls.Enough money spent on this already.They're a little oversized,so tried to keep them away from the figures.
Spring is coming so try to get some outside pics soon.
Lots on the bench to be dio's.

Yep you reached THAT point by the sound of it – the arghhh-I-can’t-go-on moment, doubtless many of us have been there, I sure have - often! But wow what a great scene, you really make your dios & figures in them work so hard to pull the viewer right into it. The gulls look great too & nicely placed, it deserves those daylight shots in ahem a month or two! Looking forward to your next one whatever it may be

Thanks very much guys.
Some smaller ones coming.No crowds for a while

I have a ton of built kits I do in between working on a dio.These just need the dio.This one took longer and more $ to find what fit right.
Still have Egypt in mind,but that will be on the larger side.
Thanks again for looking and comments.

Happy modelling,

Tom
