Great. I really like the plaster work and the surface texture of it.

I think you'll find one will be wearing a red and while armband .... ie: Polish Resistance fighter

Looks fantastic Rafal. I like the different levels and different scenes going on, but the rubble and the way its composed is what catches my eye. Very realistic and natural.

Inspiring work Rafal. The piece is packed full of detail from the masonry to the clutter in the basement and the detail on the figures is superb- a really inventive scene.

Hi Rafal. As I said previously, this is an excellent scene. Very well composed and plenty of details to ponder over. One thing that I noticed ... and it doesn´t look very natural to me .... is the way that all the rebar is folded down under the floor and is all the same length. It might look more natural if this was mixed up some, in direction and length. It would also be an idea to have some bits of concrete hanging from the rebar that hasn´t shook free??

Rafale, your diorama is wonderful. The subject is very close to my heart (like you I am the resident of Warsaw). I heard a lot of stories about Warsaw Uprising '44 from my Grandma, and my dad was at the age of this boy...

awesome little diorama with the different levels, as Plasticbattle mentioned. A lot details to dwell on. The build and paint work is outstanding realism and very artistic
while the kid retrieving the ball is an excellent element to the story, I wonder why he's up there on that side of the wall. With the rebar showing on all sides, this indicates to me that this structure stands alone as you see it. I like that added character to the story and with that said, I have no better solution as to the position of it
I like that the rebar is bent downward toward the knife fight. I hear what Plasticbattle is saying with this but my eye was immediately on the two dudes swinging those knives at each other down below. Then I started looking at the details and painting which brought me up to the top, then the rebar pointed my right back down to it
very nice
i watched a scale plastic figure crawl along the edge . . . of an exacto blade . . . that's my dream , it's my nightmare . . . . . . . crawling , slithering . . . . . along the edge . . . . . . of an exacto . . . . . blade . . . . and surviving

very interesting piece Rafal with lots to keep the viewer entertained as they discover new elements you created. i like how you made the rebar almost organic, like roots of a tree, and how the distressed paint for the base adds to the overall feel of the diorama.
i really appreciate that you post so many different photos showing many angles as it provides me with a chance to check out all the aspects of the piece. thanks for sharing. cheers, bd.
