Ola Hans

very nice work on an elaborate diorama. I guess this is 1:35 as I think I recognize some figures. It must be quite big as well. at least 90 cm wide if I estimate it.
love the railroad as well. Great job recreating a slice of the Netherlands

I hope you don't mind but I photoshopped your first image to try to make it look older!

Nice job. Perhaps in sepia it looks a bit better, you have to try.
Thanks,

Very impressive Hans!
You probably enjoyed working on this project, and it came out very realistic, especially the station and the battle damage.

Thanks for posting, Dave

Hans,

Impressive! The wounded Tommy with his leg bandaged conveys emotion.
