Hello all,
I have completed my first diorama and first attempt at modeling military vehicles etc. I used to model trains years ago. Hard core builders would think different because I started with a Verlinden diorama kit. But I did add a lot of scratch built details to it. I also bult the wooden base. This also was my first attempt at photography with my new digital camera. I will post more photos of the overall scene so folks can get a better idea of what is going on in the scene. The pics can be found at:

Man - great first diorama. The contstruction is great. You have some really cool interest points in it. Well done.

A couple of things to work on the your next one. The interior of the building is a bit sparse. The rubble is good, I would like to see some more things like the piano. Maybe end tables, lamps, wall paper, broken beams etc. Maybe a different paint color on the second floor.
(My first diorama had a full two story french house in it and the interior was a floor, curtains, and trim #:-) , your ahead of me on that)

Good job.

Good job, I liked the guy running. It really adds to the realism.
