Hey there,

I have a Pz. Kpfw.1 Ausf .A from dragon kit number 6289, and am wondering what kind of diorama I can put this in. Can I do a urban scene or was this tank more of a desert/woodland vehicle.

Any diorama ideas are welcome.

Thanks.

It appeared in prewar Germany in parades and maneuvers, in most if not all battles through 1941, and a few went to China to help the Nationalist forces before Hitler allied with Japan.

I have a set of decals for this tank type if you're interested in buying it.

A pre war training would be cool. You could do one of a trench crossing training with a brutal angle on the tank. Dramatic yet straight forward.

You could do a Poland one early in the war, that could be urban or rural.
