Michael Walsh shares with us some pictures of his diorama "The USA are here today". The diorama utilised a Miniart base and Dragon''s M4A3 (76) W Premium edition 6325 with stowage and sandbags from Legend. The figures are a mix of resin and plastic.

Outstanding! I feel the old ties to WWII pulling me back from modern armor. The figures are exceptional and the tank really looks the part.
