In the weeks before D Day, the weather was good, a lull before the storm!

Very impressive, this is how I should have made my first D-Day diorama.
I'm not an expert on the subject but is the flak the right colour? I am not aware they were painted desert yellow? As I said, I'm not 100% sure.
I would like to see more weathering on the flak anyhow.
Very nice choice of figures and well painted.

Thanks for your input.
I am now becoming aware that my photography won't win me any awards and I must do better.
It isn't Desert yellow or Sand, just looks that way and the suble weathering doesn't show very well.
Their would also have been some scuffing on the concrete around the gun platform.
I continue to learn....
