nimrod484 Posted October 8, 2021 Share Posted October 8, 2021 (edited) Finally finished this one... a shout out to Anirudh - theaa2000 - whose great diorama motivated me to go beyond what was just going to be a vignette of the kubelwagen and figures and scratch build the building and interior. The building is not elaborate but still took a fair time to create. My first tree also. The diorama references are these - For the building and the tree, I used this picture I found from the Bardia area... For the idea I initially thought would be a good vignette... More pictures of figures in Figures section... Some close-up pics... Only tank model I know (Bronco) with separate spark plugs... a lovely but fiddly model to build with a nice interior... Breda from Tamiya LRDG kit and Model Victoria resin boxes, oil drums, helmets, rifles etc... Panzer Ace jerry cans... Thanks for looking.

NMLeonov Posted October 12, 2021 Share Posted October 12, 2021 Amazingly realistic scene. I love the clutter of oil drums, crates, jerry cans, helmets, rifles, bits and bobs around the Breda 20mm and tankette... masterful rendition of an early war frontier.
