Frank. I know you have mentioned before that many of your scenic items are Hudson and Allen. How about your grass. I've been wanting to set up some simple displays and your grass always looks so lifelike. Especially the longer grass in these dioramas below.

Thanks,

Hi Frank,

Another MASTERPIECE , absolutely love the way you positioned the figures. Really illustrates just how much we need proper Panzer Grenadiers. This has to be one of my favorite productions you've done so far.. Just Brilliant ..best Gebhard

It is not uncommon to see pictures of T-34s trapped in obstacles, sometimes piled on top of each other. Poor visibility, lack of radios and a two man turret (over worked commander) combined with a high speed tank charge often resulted in mishaps.

You nailed the scene Frank, like the halftrack and the ruined building. Nice work on the lighting too. Robin.

 

[wayne556517]

The building and the HT are the stars of the picture absolutely brilliant.

 

[TomNT]

I agree, the Hanomag and the ruined factory are the stand out's in what is a brilliantly presented dio!
