Great work so far. Am looking forward to seeing the finished diorama.

Hey guys,

Thanks so much for your comments! Finally, I have finished this diorama. Thanks so much guys for helping me through my first....I got myslef a 3rd place ribbon for the diorama category at the IPMS Vancouver show today...The Junior category was empty, so i went into the normal category. Anways, Im really happy with these results and want to thank you again! I was up super late last night and got up super early this morning to finish up, lots of touches to fix. Thanks Simon for the picture; convinced me to add the slogan "Forward Russia" to balance out the sewer. Unfortunately, the "realsitic water" became so bubbly, that it hardly looked like water. Whatever, mistakes are part of learning. I already have ideas for my next diorama; stay tuned.

Enough talk, Heres the pics!











Heres a sausage that the Russians were warming up, before they got attacked by the German planes.


Making me hungry...



I added a little wine bottle from tamiyas German soldiers at rest set.






The title. I didn't really want to spend too much money for the brass nameplates, so I went cheap and did paper


So, thats it.
Thanks again guys, I hope you will follow my next diorama!
*HINT! It will probably be ANOTHER STALINGRAD

Congratulations!

It looks great, you deserve the win!

Congratulations on the award. I really like the way this turned out. I wouldn't worry too much about using a computer generated title, that is how many people do it now and yours turned out well.

Thanks for your replys, Blake and Mathew. And thank you for following my posts!

The beautiful , and impress me very much.

well done and congradulations.

This is a great result. If just I could finish my dio so fast XD but I am waiting for paint..

Grats on the reward. Good start : D

congratulations on the show result, well earned for all your efforts. i like the Stalingrad nameplate, very creative and more unique than just another brass plaque. look forward to seeing the next project. cheers, bd.

Thanks guys, my diorama would have been really bad if it weren't for you!

Well , i missed most of this, but this is indeed very weel done.
I like your creativity with the base , bridge and so.

Congrats on the medal and continue on this track of scratchbuilding.

Hello.
What do you want to write? http://i667.photobucket.com/albums/vv39/quinnmatthews/IMG_5313.jpg - Forward Russia? Here's how it is correct - Вперёд Россия

Hey there,

Darn, i missed the E before the A!!!! Aghhh. Oh well, there isnt much i can do to change it though.
Thanks,

The whole inscription gramoticheski not correct! You wrote -вNерaA росСЯ . A must have -вПерЁД росСИЯ. The selection in upper case must have been paid more attention.

Oh man...that sucks. I got the letters off some website that showed slogans written on tanks during world war two. So right now it says nothing at all???

Please, drop me a line what sites are you talking about. And correct the sign as I said - ВПЕРЕД РОССИЯ! - that is ok. I'm russian and I live in Russia, so trust me there is NO such words as you mentioned.
