Great dio, great subject . Out of the box thinking .
Just like it was 100 years ago in the trenches .

That is amazing, sir.
As mentioned below, you are the king of the WWI dioramas and small vignette.
Also, for me quite a coincidence as I just watched a movie entitled , "The Water Diviner" staring Russell Crowe.
See: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt3007512/ on IMDB.
The story is about a father trying to travel to the Gallipoli battle field, approximately 2 years after the battle. He was looking for his THREE sons' bodies who were killed during the battle. However, he is facing setback after setback, mostly from the Australian Army trying to "identify" all the dead bodies.
Quite a heartbreaking drama with good acting and scenery. If anyone has seen this movie, is it an accurate presentation of what the conditions were years after the battle?
Anyway, they portrayed this "TRICK" with the rifle and water in the opening scenes.

5 out of 5 stars for innovation and photography. Was thinking of an empty trench to be used as the "system" displayed was used to cover the withdrawl. Really great dio here. Chris
When it comes to WW I dioramas, you have no equal.
Most clever.
What can I say?Outstanding work.
Aussie ingenuity then and now
I think you need to set up a min production line and do some of these for your Brissy mates
Hint Hint
Absolutely a brilliant DIO and well crafted

Clever idea and appropriate timing with ANZAC day coming on Tuesday.:salute::
One more cunning stunt from a great Aussie collector and diorama builder!!!
No matter the subject matter, Wayne, you are guaranteed to give it your own unique and original 'twist'.
Congratulations mate...Now where is the rest of the scene..?
Andy.
Many Thanks Andy and Toddy.Simply brilliant mate, love the theme and all the detail and of course the ANZAC combo is the icing on the cake. :salute::
Will be rum and warm milk for me and the lads at the local RSA, as the sun pops it's head up on another ANZAC day.
Cheers!
