It must have been impossible to hit anything specific with such a weapon.. Thank you very much FalkeEins for your kind comments. And it's a good point about the difficulty for hitting the target in such circumstances. Kind regards, Stix Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muchmirth Posted April 10, 2021 Share Posted April 10, 2021 This is such a great idea and amazingly well executed. The models have such clean lines and everything in the dio is so precise. Wonderful work. How long did it take from start to finish? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ernst Posted April 11, 2021 Share Posted April 11, 2021 Amazing diorama Stix, fantastic composition. Building a static diorama is difficult enough but adding so much convincing action to it. I like it a lot, Cheers, Ernst. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was built as part of two Group Builds which ran at the same time - The Tiger STGB and the D-Day GB. It took, all-in-all, roughly four months to make.

nimrod484 Posted May 2, 2021 Share Posted May 2, 2021 Awesome concept and great job on execution. Lots to engage with and admire about this one. I agree with Badder on the clear perspex stick for what it’s worth. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't use a clear Perspex rod in this instance, because I needed to get the wires from the battery - which is hidden in the base - up to the motor in the Typhoon to make the propeller rotate. The wires inside a Perspex tube would have been just as noticeable, I think. Kind regards, Stix Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nimrod484 Posted May 2, 2021 Share Posted May 2, 2021 (edited) Ah, I see! Thanks for clarifying that. And I will just add that what I love about this diorama is the way you have integrated scenery, figures, an aircraft and an afv. Takes a lot of skill, thought and effort to cover all those aspects. Top stuff. Edited May 2, 2021 by nimrod484 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bertie McBoatface Posted July 23, 2021 Share Posted July 23, 2021 (edited) Smashing! The instant I saw your photos I thought "That should be on the cover of a Commando comic". So I looked them up and discovered: a.) They are still being published b.) I was almost exactly correct! p.s. I love that hand pulling the hatch closed!🤣 p.p.s. I just read that it's 1/48 not 1/35. I'm even more impressed now. Edited July 23, 2021 by Bertie Psmith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
