Hello Planeteers,

I have just finished this diorama.
The figures are from Triguard Miniatures in 40mm size.
The idea of this diirama was to depict a typical scene of a column of French Marines ( companies Franches de la Marine) , some command figures, troopers in regulatiion uniform, some rangers and a Huron guide.
The figure in blue coat is a memeber of the Royal Artillerie
All painted in acrylics.
The base was bare woid, i added few washes of vallejo smoke, and sealed with Vallejo satin varnish.
The plaque is metal ( used from an old name tag i had, sanded and prumed, painred and hand written using a mix of vallejo silver grey and Army painter chainmail.

Ps: You can see this thread when all of this started here

A wonderful diorama, full of movement and colour, another master piece. That it's all in 40mm with so much detail makes it a real stand out piece.

Thanks for your kind words Kev!
 
The out doors pictures are awesome with the cast shadows and the way the greenery reflects the light really makes it look like a lovely summers day.
