Thanks Mike! Regarding the white/yellow crosses, Steve/Hunter Rose pointed out a while back that during the Polish campaign, German tanks went into battle with large white crosses painted on them; however, they learned quickly that those white crosses were ideal aiming points for Polish...

Another fantastic and exciting scene, Mike, background and all 😎

Great photos Mike! Those WP SS figures look good and work perfectly for your scene.

Beautiful pics and a fantastic setup, Mike! I can feel the tension as the paratroopers get ready to take their shot… And hopefully not get spotted!

Thanks for the kind comments, Mike and Horus 😃 Here’s a photo of the actual tank that Hunter Rose (Steve) and John undoubtedly used as a reference for this Panzer II model: I considered making a display similar to the historical photo, but wanted something with a little more action. My...

A few pics of my vignette diorama showcasing John’s new Panzer II Ausf. A model, replicating a tank from the 1st Panzer Division during the Polish Campaign in September, 1939. It’s a great little model and the GA-10D tank commander looks perfect in the hatch. The accompanying tank riders and...

Great pics, Wayne! The JJD RAF ground crew figure works perfectly with that Thomas Gunn RAF Jeep 😎

Thanks Mike! That was a perfect re-use of the factory workers as partisans! As for casualty figures, the GERSTAL043 German Heer Infantry Casualty figure is still available. Cover the base with some dirt and other bits to hide the masonry and it could work in a lot of different settings.

Looking great, Duke! I had this figure on the back of my WB Sherman tank for a time, kind of mimicking something Ken did in one of his promo photos.

Fantastic scene, Mike! Are the partisans some of the FL Stalingrad factory worker figures and are the Germans K&C?

Yeah, the belt is there! However, I’m glad to hear other collectors got their OH-6s in good shape. At least in this case the issue with my helicopter was fixable… It’s a great model otherwise.

That is quite a display you have there, Mike! Fantastic setup 😎

Thank you everyone for the kind comments on my display! I truly appreciate it… This is my fourth or fifth different display with this tank since I got it in 2024 and John’s excellent craftsmanship makes the tank look the part no matter the setting.

Thanks Mike! It was fun making the sign. I’ve got a background in model building and doing scratch work, so the “carpentry” aspects weren’t too difficult. However, I did have to research the pronunciation of each city in Russian and how those words were spelled in Cyrillic letters… Google...

OzDigger, it’s rather interesting how many of these 1/30 scale manufacturers make aircraft models with those bolt-sized rivets. K&C, JJD, and TCS have all done that on various models. It’s happened enough times as to almost be an artistic or stylistic choice, lol!

I also posted this in the John Jenkins forum, but since all the figures are War Park products, I figured I’d post it in this forum as well. Anyways, pics of a vignette display featuring the JJ Designs Panzer III Ausf. H model in a scene capturing a fateful moment from Operation Barbarossa. In...

A vignette display featuring the JJ Designs Panzer III Ausf. H model in a scene capturing a fateful moment from Operation Barbarossa. In July 1941, the 3. Pz.Div., fighting as part of Panzergruppe 2 under General Heinz Guderian as part of Heeresgruppe Mitte (Army Group Center), was diverted by...

Wow, cool! Awesome to see you got yours already, Rafael! Great pics too. My Panzer II A should arrive on Tuesday.

I agree with you fully, Mike, those SdKfz 251 halftracks are great! I’ve got all three myself, but the two you’ve got in your display are my favorites of the bunch as well. It would be great if John would eventually make an SdKfz. 251/22 with the Pak 40 antitank gun mounted to it 😎 (Profile...

What a brilliant display with your FL Tiger, Mike! Even though it’s a Normandy vehicle, it looks right at home on the Eastern Front. Also, Louis, you have an awesome display as well!!
