Hello Everyone!

Just thought I'd show you my two latest 1/72 scale dioramas.


The first one is called "Taking the Scenic Route" and consists of a Famo and a Flak 36 from Revell and a Steyr 1500 from MAC. The windmill is from Frederikus Rex and the figures are a mix of Preiser, Mantis Miniatures and some that I've sculpted myself...










The second one is called "The UN-Invited" and consists of a Revell Le Clerc T5 and a scratchbuilt house and tree plus figures from Presier, Nikolai and one of my own creation.










Thanks for looking!

I will also stick my neck out a bit here and do some advertising for my book "Braille Scale Modelling" which among it's 90 pages has the complete construction of the UN-Invited vignette. It's a download only book which will set you back only euro 1.99 and you can find it here:

Very nice work,great details on both scenes

I agree. Excellent attention to detail! I couldn't tell the halftrack was 1/72 till I went back and read the description. This goes for the LeClerc, as well. In the last photo, it looks like the woman is emptying the cistern on the tank. Braile scale building never ceases to amaze me. The detail you have achieved is incredible!

Thanks Guys!!!

I'm really happy that you like my work!!!

Cheers

Sven-Åke

Always a big fan of your work,as you know from my posts on the other site.
Wish my eyes were still good enough to work in braille scale!! It would save a lot of room,that's for sure.

WOW your work is amazing the amount of detail which you put in is amazing your dioramas are amazing they look so full of character
but may i ask what material did you use for your ground work on 'taking the scenic route'
Curtis

Thanks Jerry!!!

I don't think scale matters as long as we are having fun. To be honest this scale does wear out my eyes so I guess I'll have to go up in scale soon

Cheers

Thank You Curtis!

I used all sorts of things for the groundwork on that dio.

The base is carved and shaped from a big chunk of foam, you know that kind that makes it look as it has been a snowstorm and filling the house with those little white balls...

On top of that I did a mix of regular wall filler, white glue, sand and soil from an old flowerpot. Then there's some static grass, various spices and home made trees and bushes.

Cheers

Thanks for your reply
And yeah I know what you mean polystyrene stuffs a pain with the little balls get every wear
And wow it looks amazing and I really like how you have used all natural materials where you can find around the house I'm really impressed with the dioramas especially seen as it 1 72 and the detail is amazing
Thanks
