A static build of the 1/65th scale Monogram Flying Sub hovers the Diorama of an undersea seascape of my own invention. Using some different scale aquarium plants, and the diorama base I use for many of my projects, I got an interesting "Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea" display. An acrylic/lexan rod assembly minimizes the support's impact on the "hovering" craft effect. From some angles the illusion was quite good. The base was airbrushed with a variety of specific aquatic colors to get that "60's" feel to the tiny set design
