Here some pictures of my Wirbelwind Diorama Procress.
The Wirbeldwind model is a old kit from Tamiya and it was in really bad condition, i still wanted to use it for my diorama.











The i plants made from aluminium foil


The fence i made from matches.



Overal base of the diorama

Hi Richard,
Great work, the crop plants are well done.I like the composition with the scarecrow and the fence.
Perhaps your diorama could do with a crew figure or two..

Good stuff.
Regards,
Garth

Nice job , Richard. I like the corn field. Now you have me wanting to do something with a corn field................LOL.....My dios are usually slightly larger, but sometimes you can tell a great story on a smaller base............

Love the corn stalks. Did you make the cabbages too?
Good job.
It might be better if it was a bit bigger.

Great work! Those corn stalks and the fence are fantastic. The scene is coming together really well.

Excellent job on the field and the old man! Never thought about making the hair darker along the edges. The corn looks like it was fun to make. I'm not sure the 50gal. drum fits with the rest of the base.

Hi
Nice diorama, can imagine the old farmer mumbling some bad words when he came across the scene.
Very good scratchbuilding of the corn, fence & scarecrow.
