Nice dio Don. It all looks well laid out and has a lot of detail that catches your eye! One thing you might want to add is some bed rolls/sleeping bags in the tent. It looks a bit bare and as it faces the front, begs the viewer to look in.

Thanks for the comments guys.

Plasticbattle: You can't see it from this angle, but inside is a couple of bedrolls, a box of medical supplies, a water container and the machinepistol and magazine :-)

Graywolf: the tree is from Walmart and cost me $1.88 and your right I should have replaced the leaves with P.E. ones

Great job. I love the relaxed mood you created. Its good to see a well done dio without carnage involved. Seems to be the type I do. Something you dont see all the time. Pat yourself on the back and get going with your trench! :-)
