Looks great, Alexander. Thanks for sharing the photos. You really captured the feel of the original photos in your diorama.

Excellent diorama! The "cup" of the earth frames the diorama, and shelters the exposed and challenged humanity--each figure has an inward turmoil which reflects out through his body language, and carries across the sheltering walls of the gully--and iron hulk--to take up a total expression among the group. They are vulnerable, yet busy collecting their wits. No single individual interrupts the safe moment together, by excessive drama, or, by extreme gesticulation. There is a mild warmth to the day, a warmth which overflows for miles and miles, and which keeps the men composed. You would hear crickets in the grass, and muted talk behind your shoulder, as black smoke might waft by over-head.

Awesome diorama! Brilliant figures that show the most human emotions I've ever seen in this scale and the composition draws the viewer right to them.
Gorgeous work of art!
Cheers!

Very Nice work Alexander.
The base shape attracts the eye and tells the story to the viewer imediately. Figures are wonderful, the ground and grass are very real. This is a very fine diorama. Well done . I hope we can see more in the future.

Outstanding work Alexander! Great work with all aspects of the figures. I especially appreciate how you fit the KV into the terrain like it really belongs there.
Keep them coming!
