Hello friends,

I have finished my small scale diorama. It figures a Jagdpanther in a Normandy landscape with old shack, and some infantry soldiers at rest. The title is : Die Letzte Sonne (The last sunshine).

I hope you enjoy it :





















Thank you for your attention. Guy.

Absolutely stunning that is the word I have for it.
Some awesome work in this small scale. The attention to detail is very nice. From the flowers on the roof of the shed to the tank and the figures combined with a stunning piece of groundwork.
Very good. I feel an OD for Kitmaker Benelux coming up.

With friendly greetz

Robert - I'll thumb wrestle you for the MOD feature

Seriously, don't care where it start, I'll syndicate it on Armorama or vice versa or double pub. I don't want such great build to dissapear in the threads.

That came out great.

Nice work! I especially like the 'sleeping' soldier, it's a nice touch...

Awesome, awesome dio, even more so considering the scale. Amazing work and it tells a story. I can almost hear the sleeping soldier snoring...

Fantastic job.

Echoing what the others said. Very nice. What did you use and how did you build the thatched roof? Looks great! "Q"

Thank you all friends, I appreciate your kind replies very much ! G.
Matthew : I made a topic WIP, Buildings and ruins, title : Old Normandy Shack. It was great fun to experiment.
Chyenne : they are Preiser indeed. The figures are molded well and the gear is separate and beautifully detailed. And poses can be combined to create new ones. G.
