Nice diorama. I like the fact that you have actually represented the entire building. The brummbaer looks well done.
My things to work on for your next build would be the scale of debris. Some of the chunks are too big. The ladder 'rungs' are a bit oversized for my tastest but in the field the soldiers would use whatever they could find. The seam on the walls pieces could use a bit of etching/sanding to knock down the linear appearance of the seam. Maybe a bit of putty or reshaping here and there to keep your eye distracted.
Overall I like it.

Good effort George. And I like to add that turning the wall parts like that is a superb move, and one which I will copy shamelessly when I get around to using this MiniArt kit..

Very nice scene. It is well laid out and looks realistic.
The brummbär is very nicely done. The zimmerit is a nice touch. Did you do it yourself or is it an aftermarket item?
Good job - thanks for sharing

George, looks real nice. The only thing that I would change is your ladder. As a kid, my brothers and I built one just like yours, but when we tried to use it the foot rungs dipped to the side where your foot was and down we went. I don;t see a full grown man being able to do it so I would add another upright to it. I agree with the guys about the debri being to large. and I would add more of it inside the building, but that's just my opinion. Other than that, I like it.
