nimrod484 Posted May 1, 2021 Share Posted May 1, 2021 (edited) A few shots of something I just completed. The diorama represents a glider which has just landed (heavily) next to Tavronitis Bridge on the morning of 20 May, 1941 during the start of the invasion of Crete. It is Bronco's 1/35 DFS. Nice interior but I added a battery and various pipes and cables which are difficult to notice, I did a cutaway of one side to show the nice frame. Capacity 10 including pilot, so there are 10 various modified and unmodified Dragon figures from different sets plus Hornet heads. More pictures of glider and figures in relevant Ready for Inspections. Edited May 1, 2021 by nimrod484 21 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muchmirth Posted May 2, 2021 Share Posted May 2, 2021 This is fantastic. I really like the ground work, the figures are really well painted and especially like the cut away to see the inside....I'd like to do some fallschrimjager in the future...on the long term plan to do anyway.

The west wing Posted May 4, 2021 Share Posted May 4, 2021 Very impressed, superb aircraft, figure and base modeling. The plants, grass and flowers are the best I have ever seen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sanfrandragon Posted May 8, 2021 Share Posted May 8, 2021 Awesome diorama. The figures and their poses are just right, the ground work looks perfect for Crete and the glider is amazing; the cutaway is inspired. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
