If you can overlook the wrong jumpsuit (& the fact that the correct one may never be produced), how about escorting a Firefly through a Dutch town

Buildings; French or Dutch, maybe a farm.There is a terrific book about the 101st airborne Div by Mark bando
called "Vanguard of the Crusade" that will give you plenty of ideas

Very Nice looking Diorama building. Like how the interior lights give the effect.

I think all the help that Jordant is getting from fellow form members is just great. I have gotten alot of help from members. What a great bunch of people. Those dios are just wonderful. I wish I had the talent to build buildings like the one seen here and other ones on this form Thanks everyone. "Mr Colt 45":smile2::smile2::smile2:

Hello everyone just come online and saw all the posts , pictures and comments thank you all for some of the amazing ideas. I will definitely be using most of the ideas put forward and post images of my final diorama with paras in place

Para's around IKE!

 

[Mitch]

plenty of Para's now available but, I would think a railway line and tunnel entrance with bushes and an embankment with a handful of lost Para's about to move out would be excellent and, one that I will be doing sooner rather than later

French Villages are an easy commom theme....The buildings are from Hobby bunker and are modified........The last 2 pics have custom buildings.

Great thread. Lots of super dioramas featuring U.S. paratroopers. Thanks for sharing guys. Those older K&C sets still hold up well and look great and the new ones will absolutely compliment them. Warbuff26 your diorama looks almost identical to the setup I have in my home minus a few paratroopers and substitute the P-47 for the Tuskeegee P-51......good stuff! :salute::
