Per Olav, another show stopper! Fantastic detail and the addition of the ground work gives a better feel for the scene. Could you give me the base demensions? cheers Kevin
Well, an update on the diorama, the base and Panzer 1 is now finished, so is also the sculping and converting of the figures. The figures are primed and ready for paint.
The next time you are going to make such a house i wanna look over your shoulder (specially the painting).. So, a SBS is very welcome.
I find this so amazing that i have no words for it. Realism is great.
this is stunning stuff. I'm an admirer of your work and this is another fine example of how dioramas should be made.
Since I can only repeat what everybody else has already said, I can only sit back in awe and prevent myself from drooling over the keyboard.
Not so much I can say: fantastic! Great details around the groundwork and superb paintwork on them! I like the dio-idea and figure-poses a lot too. It just keeps getting better...
Thanks a lot guys, your nice feedback is much appreciated.
Actually when I started on the diorama a couple of months ago I had no special story for the diorama in mind. I was most interested in trying out new tecniques and just doing a diorama from the Norwegian campaign.
Hopefully the story got a hint of humor with the two Norwegian civilists trying to help out the two tankers with some home made fluid and give good advices from a "Mecanic for home use" book.
Its absolutely beautiful, the building is so well made that could stand alone in a vigniette with nofigures. But also the figures setup is looking quite good !!! waiting for the finished issue
Thanks Costas and Mike.
The diorama is finished and I must say it has been a fun project with some new tecniques and experience during the prosess.
The bad thing is that its too long time between each time I paint figures. Starting to paint the figures is always a challenge when its over a year since last time.
Anyway now its done and thanks for all the encouraging comments during the project.
Cheers
Per Olav
ps. going to AMT next weekend, hope to meet some of you there.
Per Olav, wonderful work. I really like how this came together! One quick observation, it doesn't look like there are any "tracks" in the mud behind the tank. Wouldn't it leave some markings on the ground, even though it's a small tank? I may be wrong and they may be there, but from these angles the ground looks like there aren't any marks. Just a small point, not meant to spoil such a fun piece!
