Traffic Jam in Poland or A Descent into the Abyss (1 Viewer)

[tmanthegreat]

Advancing tanks from the German 35th Panzer Regiment, 4th Panzer Division, come to a momentary halt on a rural road during the Invasion of Poland in September, 1939.



I wanted to do a Polish Campaign diorama featuring John’s recent Panzer II Ausf. A (GA-25P), Panzer I Ausf. B (GA-11B) and Kleiner Panzerbefehlswagen (GA-16P) models all in one scene, and this is the current result. It’s still kind of a work in progress, so I may make further modifications at some point. It is a busy little scene, inspired by a historical photo of a similar panzer traffic jam during the Invasion of Poland.



Historical photo used as an inspiration:


The tankers are all the old JJD Panzer I crew figures while the tank riders and standing infantry are War Park figures. The base and bushes are JG Miniatures and Sheffield Miniatures products.

Great Job, your custom groundwork is a vastly great improvement to premade terrain mats. The realism is greatly enhanced by the terrain you are providing the figures. thanks for the photos and inspiration.

Thank you both

Running-Buddy, the terrain mat isn’t really a custom… It’s a section of old JG Miniatures dirt road/medium grass terrain matting. I wish I’d gotten more of it when available several years ago. The bushes are Sheffield Miniatures products.
