Wow. So impressive. Epic build. There will be so much going on, so much to see. Your composition is impeccable. You really have a knack for detail and color. This will be an outstanding diorama when complete!

This is really coming together in good fashion Leo! The weathering on that half-track and boat are off the charts man. Buildings along with all of the realism that you're bringing to the table are all adding up into quite the diorama. Hat's off to you for the work that you're putting into this.

Thanks again for all your kind comments, Another two vehicles almost ready to be added the old tami kettenrad and i think the revell opel kadett , the kettenrad ive opened the fuel tanks so as to have it look like any fuel was taken from them, the opel has had two wheels and tyres removed to keep other vehicles on the road. Some barrels and bits for the pub painted got some more barrels and bottles on the way ordered. So still ploughing away wit this ,back now on getting the pub sorted ,had to redo the steps at the entrance ,and found a set a gates to put at the entrance to the courtyard /beergarden? these had to be altered in size to fit, Iam having the pub still operrational as the celler bar was never damaged up stairs getting cleared a rubble and getting ready for rebuilding . pics Thanks Lads.

Exceptional work on both the kettenrad and the Opel there Leo. I like the wood effects that you carried out on the barrels. What method did you use to achieve that look?

Lads Thank you so much for your kind words ,iwould like to explain how i the did the barrels .first a coat a tami xf 52 wit air brush all over ,then once dry with a paint brush ,dab a few areas with tami Xf 15 flesh ,not too heavy , after this a dry brush a oil paint of naples yellow , burnt sienna , black ,vandyke brown . and just play with them . then a bit of a wash of a dark color to get in to the grains in an a acrylic color ....... I have some barrels and bottles on order they are miniart items and they look great ,in the mean time i got a set a bottles but very few / any way, I made a few more bottles from the sprues some may look out a scale but once in the dio they should be ok .

Hi All Hope all are well ,still tipping away wit this as said b4 all the things you dont see till you take time and study the dio, but this is wat makes it enjoyable . Alot has been going on in 1/1 scale life also ,nothing too drastic, had a great surprise from my son and wife they sent me off to Berlin over easter wit my Son ,took in all the sights and as many museums we could and a great tour around some battle sites and places that still have scars and damage to this day . Ok so staircase and paper kiosk are done and wall of building wit its propaganda slogans done,I can attach the building to the base now ,in under the arch i have added afew advert signs and the gates, just need to sort out the lane way with more paving stones and crap! . Few pics to date, O Steve Zuleski is to blame for the first German gray vehicle i have done in years ,having seen his Great, Easy Pickins ,dio ,must be 15 years since. .
