I’m in the middle of a dio right now, so I’ll jump in. Speaking of which, do you have the link to the original thread? I don’t believe I ever actually posted my finished first dio there…
Yes, I do: http://finescale.com/FSM/CS/forums/487631/ShowPost.aspx

Add me to the list and I will give it a go. I have a couple ideas in the works that would meet the specs on this.
Cheers;

Right on! Ill add ya right now.
Oh, and what do you guys think of the badge?
yeah add me to,i have 4 1/72 105’s with crews i’ve been wanting to put into a dio,
cheers
Thanks much, sspanzer
No one else is interested? I got a bunch of hits pretty fast last time. Anyways, im going out tomorrow to get some of the supplies, and hopefully by the end of the week ill have some progress pics. Not sure exactly what i want to do yet.
The badge looks good.
A suggestion…you may wish to post a link to this thread in all the other major sections. I suspect there are users that just don’t go to various other groups.
you mean in the GB sticky at the top of each forum? or an individual post? Ill post this in the stickys for now.
I just found your post on the GB and it sounds great! I’m currently building a series of Tigers with my daughters and this sounds like the perfect jump into dioramas. Count me in!

Hey will, glad to have you along!
Add me to your GB.I’m doing a airfield diorama in 1/72 scale.
No, I meant like a simple post in each of the other forums (namely armor) just informing people there that we’re having a GB.
Speaking of which, I’ve managed to get some work done. I have a base cover of celluclay with some earth, and am starting to cover it with groundcover. Still a long way to go, especially in the panting and weathering of vehicles and figures. The dio is of two US vehicles, stopped in front of a simple farmhouse, asking the locals for directions. I wanted a reason to try creating a plaster farmhouse from scratch, so the diorama was created. I’ll see if I can post some progress shots soon.
Hey, I’m in!
Right now I’m doing one of the Dragon 1/35 Sd.Kfz. 251 3-in-1 kits in a ruined city dio (one of the old Verlinden dio bases), and an Sd.Kfz. 250 is next, but I’ll also be cranking out a few Pz III and IV dios in the next few months.
I’d also like to see if there’s any interest in a halftrack GB. Anyone?

I was unable to finish the previous GB ,hopefuly I’ll finish this one …so sign me in . I’ll use the 90% finished Tiger I and the 10 figs I’ve made so far .The project is the same “Building the Citadelle” 1/35 dio…What I have to do is : finish the Tiger, start an finish 10 more figs, an Opel Blitz truck and the base itself, so I still have a lot of work to do.
Ugh, havent been on in a while. Sorry about that, Ill update everything right now. Please excuse my absences, football seasons starting to get to that phase, you know, with the late night practices. Oh, and Im glad to see another familiar face, shtepsela!!
I’m almost finished with a desert stuka, and i was planing on incorporating it into a dio, so i’ll join. If anybody has any ideas about a dio using this plane, let me know, because i’d like to make it more interesting than just a plane in a field. Also, it’s 1/72.
Hi count me in…
I’v got a Mk1 Crusader crying out to be built and it’s about time I tackled a dio.
As I’m new to all this GB stuff can you let me know what usually happen’s? Is it a case of keeping you guy’s updated with progress pics etc.[?]
Really, you can just post a pic of the completed dio. But I like progress pics, so I promote progress pics![tup]. Oh, and welcome to the build!!
