This is the beginning of a diorama im building based on a captured German officer being forced to reveal other German positions to the advanced soviet reconnasiance infantry after his machine gun position has been overwhelmed and silenced as the Germans try to slow the advance on the eastern front
There are more figures needed to be acquired/built and this is just the first few bits ive done will be updating as i complete more
there will be dead and dying germans around the sandbagged area (uncompleted) where an MG42 will be set up
the place will look like a bombed out building once done

love the idea here mate, personally I prefer the italeri brick walls to the tamiya ones as they seem a bit more versatile.
I'll be sure to keep checking this build.
(edit) I wish I was as good as you when I was 16! well done pal.

Thanks buddy and i wish i had gone italeri but i found tamiya cheaper im using milliput to mod anything which doesnt fit as i got advised earlier going to use Oasis foam as the base as i can easily mold the shell holes then will add piles of rubble and debris
I wish i had my 1/72 ww1 trench diorama i made 2 years ago for a school project is was about 1 metre x50 cm never took pictures but then again my history teacher kept it because it was the best hed seen
Tbh i was annoyed i was told there was prizes i got a 10p bag of sweets i spent £20 on figures alone
