Not sure WK. I bought some figures from 3 Russian eBay sites. No markings on the base. Not bad poses, perhaps closer to 54mm than 60mm, but they blend in. Robin.

Excellent diorama...they say; "Spice is the variety of life"...or something like that...Very nice Cleopatra.

Thank you for sharing this.

I went upstairs and checked my copy of that figure still unassembled in the original package awaiting its turn on the painting table and it is indeed by Kabuki Studios. They've since retired all but one of their 54mm models though: https://www.kabuki-studio.com/11-big-sisters

For King and Country, a Light Horse soldier farewells his barefoot wife and baby and his sister, who is also doing her bit for the country, as he sets off to travel overseas. Robin.

I like the angle at which you took the second photo. Gives it a different feel.

Robin;

Your 'innovation' in dioramas is top notch !

The 'talking' to the baby in the carriage, and the 'hug' of brother & sister is fantastic.

Thank you so much.

 

[Horus]

Great use of figures there Robin to tell your story. Very well done indeed !

Yes indeed; great story board Robin and rare story in diorama genre. Gotta love the homestead. Hope the price of mutton goes up while he's away. What did they call the baby?

I think the Lighthorse at camp and on the move is probably my favourite diorama from you. So many scenes in one outstanding setting, just keeps me captivated. Should be in the war museum. Regards Greg.
