Here is a Verlinden Heavy Machine Gun Bunker Diorama I did… it was one of my first ones, so please let me know your opinions.
thank you.
looks good to me. I like the camo net.
good job.
slow site, but the dio is nice, good job dude
-erad
Build looks pretty good overall.
Couple thoughts:
The German’s right arm position is awkward. What’s he doing?
The guy on top is very exposed to potential enemy fire.
The other guy has let the German get awful close without his buddy covering him.
i thought that about the german’s right arm also, but that’s how verlinden said to do it…[%-)] he and the captor are a pair from a kit… the “exposed” GI is from another kit where he’s leaning over a dead german… good points though and thanx…
Nice dio

very nice dio ya got there tanker. like the coralation of the figures and their actions and reations to each other. really!!! i love it when somebody rememebrs to do that, it makes every dio so much more interesting. the dio looks great froma basic modeling aspect as well. nice work
Well yeah, but just because the instructions said to do it that way, doesn’t mean you had to do it that way.
That being said, I really like the dio. I actually think the odd look of the german’s arm might be more due to the angle of the photos than to the way he is actually built.
Good job.
actually, the odd angle came that way and i studied the pic on the box (good ol’ Verlinden NEVER sends instructions… To this day, I tell myself he’s shooing away a horsefly or something… [:D]
Very nice dio. Arm does look alittle awkward, but that’s o.k. Gives your dio some character!! Take care.
thats the spirit !
The German has been shot, and when he fell his arm was broken. Hows that sound?Good work on the dio![tup]
I found the arm angle weird on that kit also.
I built mine up as if he was reaching for the sky because he was at gunpoint and was told to reach for the sky or have his head blown off [}:)] … wouldn’t you? [}:)] [;)] [}:)] [;)]
i liked it , really cool…germans right arm looks good too:)
thanx all, i appreciate it
Very nice job, especially for a first dio.
Pics seemed a little blurry or something but it looks pretty good. That was one I was thinking about getting for Christmas but I decided on the Flak Emplacement and Tobruk Pit instead.
Where did you buy yours and how much was it?
It was a special order from my LHS… I think I paid about 40 for it.
I don’t know if it’s the same one or not but www.best1hobby.com has a Verlinden 1/35 Heavy Mg Gun Bunker Base Set for $14.16
I don’t believe it comes with figured though because there are none pictured.
That is where I am getting my Atlantic Wall Flak Emplacement and Tobruk Pit from.
i looked, it’s not the same one… the one i got did not have the figures either, they are seperate verlinden purchases.
