AHHH i love dioramas with figures in them!!
this looks soo amazing and I love how expressive it is, and how I can clearly see these two poor little guys are just so DONE with everything. The guy on the bench is probably just like “take me prisoner already” and the other guy is too tired to even be looking up

Wow! That is impressive work creading. The poses/body language really tells the story. Your figure painting and your scratch building skills are top notch. I’d love a tutorial on how you made that building & base from foam board.

Outstanding work! What scale is this in?

You made that brick wall from scratch?? It looks very good!

Set this up against a suitable backdrop and I can just imagine a fantastic photo in the works.

Edwin,
Thank you for your comments and questions.
The vignette is 1:35 scale.
I scribed/carved the bricks from foam board. It’s time consuming but relatively easy to do.
Cheers,
C.

I’d love to throw some buildings or structure into my little armour vignettes, but it’s the overall height of the things that put me off.

This one is absolutely magical though, as you get a true sense of scale of the nearby structure without having to commit to building too much of it. These figures are lifelike, really capturing a moment in time.

Very nicely done!

Very well done. Stalingrad was urban warfare at its worst.
