keefr22 Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 Very impressive diorama Beefy! I like the paint & weathering on the tank, the figures look really good, as does the groundwork - and the palm trees are brilliant!! Keith 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PlaStix Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 Hi Keith. That is a superb looking scene! The Sherman is beautifully weathered and the figures and ground work are spot on! The palm trees look amazing - can I please ask how you made them? I've done a couple of scenes with palm trees but I've used bought ones which are not as good as yours. Kind regards, Stix 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
