Offshore wind turbine.

Hello cardboard modeling lovers,
i want to show you one of my project of offshore wind generator. The project is not finished yet, but here are some pictures:

Sometimes wondered how these were attached to the seabed.
I challenge you to try and get this and and dump truck into the same diorama!

Hi Siwi,
your diorama idea is unfortunately impossible, not least because of the scale difference. The wind turbine is in scale 1:300, the dump truck in 1:100.
The wind turbine is attached to the bottom using at least three anchors.
I continue with photos of the construction of the pontoon.

Forced perspective could work though - the wind turbine would appear much further away even though it is actually close to the truck.

Hello friends,
Knife, here are more photos of the current state of the model. At the moment, I have stopped working on it a bit, but soon I think I will make some improvements and finally finish it.
Sivi, I accept your idea, but as I already wrote, let me finish the project for good first.
