Here are some pictures of a diorama I just finished. It is called 'Rendezvous with Destiny' and depicts Michael Wittmann in Tiger 007 on his last morning.

Yes, I know there are inaccuracies, such as the pose of the Wittmann figure (the actual photo was taken at an earlier time). Luckily no-one can say with certainty what Tiger 007's colour scheme was.

The Cafe was scratchbuilt, as was the road and pavement. I used the Tamiya late Tiger kit with metal barrel and tracks. I used Eduard PE zimmerit and Lion Roar PE rank badges on the figures. (hell to work with )

A nice, clean and un-cluttered scene focusing on the tank and the figures- nicely done!

That's very beautiful Diorama, I like the stone road. But I think the Tiger isn't "Steal" enough . However, It's still good. Very nice looking there Hendrik.

Look at the actual photo I guess that the Tiger had 3-scheme colour camouflage with dark yeallow base and red brown and dark gray camo line.
