1/32 Revell Eurocopter SA330J PUMA and 1/35 Dragon UH-1N Gunship Rambo 2 Screen Capture Diorama

[Lee Chambers]

Hi guys, here are the final pictures for the Rambo 2 diorama. In the movie, Rambo's Huey gets shot up by the Hind and a fire with lots of smoke erupts in the back left side of the heli. I wanted to recreate the smoke, so by using a product for RC boats I was able to achieve the correct look.

 

Obviously I started out only wanting to build the Hind/Puma conversion model, then I realised I had the correct Huey that was in the movie and things just snowballed into this mega giant diorama that is no way going to fit on anybody's shelf LOL! The plan is that I can take the helis off the diorama and take the helis with the base maybe to a show in the future.

 

I look forward to any comments and/or criticism, finally as Rambo said in the movie to Murdock "Mission Accomplished!". If you want to see my work in progress of this build, click the box below.

That's brilliant, I remember only that scene from when I was small, love this, both choppers are awesome but the detail on that Huey is top notch

That is seriously impressive.

Congrats! That is one good diorama. You don't see them very often in that quality.

I especially like how you've painted the Huey, i.e. the gun and bullet impacts. A lot of "deepness" with highlighting and shadowing, really nice :-)

 

Cheers
