Looking forward receiving in a few weeks time my 3D printed kit of the Pegasus Bridge in 1/30 scale .
Diorama possible thanks to FRONTLINE TERRAIN from the UK who are printing for me this big monster of a bridge.
The bridge is almost 2meters long and will be an EXACT replica of the real thing.
Will keep you posted about the builing and painting of the bridge and the construction of the diorama : Pegasus bridge over the Caen canal ( a few drawings of the design- not the complete bridge) pegas9.jpg

Guy, this will be a great project to watch. Appreciate you sharing it.
 
Impressive piece of kit, Guy! I look forward to seeing the diorama you build around it!
 
Just a beautiful bridge, looking forward to seeing how you use it.

This is an ambitious project. I thought my Autumn creek dio had a lot of water. I'm looking forward to seeing it develop.
 
Whoever this is for, Guy, they sure are going to need a lot of room to display it, even if without the defences for the bridge, and pouring resin for the water sounds like a nightmare on this scale.
 
It is amazing what a 3D printer can do. I wonder how you would write a program to make these items from scratch. This is going to be an amazing and challenging project. Looking forward to pictures of finish product. Thanks for posting.

It will be some time before I will be able to publish some photographs.
The bridge came in kit form, so I have to assemble it first, then paint and weather it and then figure out how I will use it in a diorama , with or without the "original" café Gondrée building, river banks or not etc . This diorama will be more than 2meters long , so will I make it in one piece or 3 pieces (70-80cm x 40cm), left river bank, river itself and right bank, with or without the trenches on both sides of the bridge? etc....... Still a lot of research to do, because it has to be 100% accurate
