Can only agree Lennart. Don´t think it is just a matter of what he did - it is when he did it. It feels like anything is possible today with aftermarket, tools, 3D printing, subject choice, materials, etc - but when one sees what he did, in a time where availability was nothing like today, it really puts some perspective on his work. He was and is still a huge inspiration for me. His super diorama work influenced me coming in to the hobby 20 years ago and still does today.Lennart 12 skrev: ↑15 sep 2021, 17:45 En av det stora och tongivande modellbyggarna , har gått ur tiden 77 år gammal.

Precis min tanke också. Pruneau var en av pionjärerna som jobbade med det som fanns att tillgå. Utbudet av figurer, extrautrustning, och detaljeringstillbehör var betydligt mindre på 80-talet då han gav ut sina första böcker. Han visade vad som var möjligt att göra. Lite som Van Halen gjorde inom ett annat område.Plasticbattle skrev: ↑15 sep 2021, 18:23 Can only agree Lennart. Don´t think it is just a matter of what he did - it is when he did it.
