Thanks much all, I’m going to keep feeding this thread as I’ve finally got time (yay retirement !) to get my Hudson & Allen Stalingrad items out.

And Merry Christmas!

Fantastic scene, Mike! Are those the War Park wall/gate sections? Either way, your scenery is fantastic!

More beautiful scenes, Mike! I really like your rubble effect and ground cover to hide the figure bases. I need to try something similar…

These set ups are really good. Very entertaining. The eye looks for all the details.

First Legion always makes great models, especially in the earlier times, always loved seeing their new releases, I don't know how their 28mm minis are doing, but let's face it, when they delved into it, it detracted from the things that made them great...

Great dioramas. I like those early stalingrad Germans figures. I had most of them and also some other items they made years back but ended up selling them. Kinda regret doing that.

Great shots Mike, and a most realistic diorama. Those First Legion figures are so detailed.
Hudson and Allen piece(s) make the best terrain for scenes like this. I've used mine in many shots. Here's a couple of my own:

Great shots Rob and thanks much. The H&A pieces are so detailed. I regret I didn’t snag the larger factory ruin piece back in the day…I pinged HA and it’s not planned to be made again.
