Streets of Berlin 1930's Diorama (3 Viewers)

[Soldierboy]

Diorama I'm currently assembling, still need to fill in the sidewalk with pedestrians and would like to hang party banners from the building façade. That beautiful building was done by Paul who some of you may know on here. Great work!

Would love some advice on where to source 1930's European pedestrians of all ages and genders, it kills me to pay the same for an SS General as a lady with a baby in a stroller. Also looking to add streamers/party banners to the building facade and would appreciate any advice there as well!



Please note there is absolutely no political aspect to this, I'm merely capturing a moment in time. I understand this may offend some and please know its not my intention

Your diorama captures the spectacle of evil so well. The massed SA banners are most striking. The building façade is also very impressive.

Thank you! I know its a little unsettling but I like pieces that evoke emotion be it good or evil.

The massed standards was exactly the look I was going for, the buildings are great indeed! I love them and were done by Paul from the UK you may know from here. He's great to work with and does great work.

Look at King and Country Fields of Battle in Treefrog shop WW2 area as several there that might work.

Soldierboy - some figures from K&C and TG you might consider in creating a cheering crowd for your street scene - a rogues gallery of evil and con merchants.

I want em all!

Check out Rodney’s Dimestore under The Collectors Showcase Berlin 38 series, maybe a couple of useful figures. Certainly needs sidewalk watchers. Robin.

Black and white photos of these displays would be downright eerie.

Frenzy grips the huge crowd - a shared psychotic disorder? Great depth and what a display.
