That's massive! I envy your display area. Did you create all of the figures, as well?

This is easily the best idea for a diorama I've seen. I can't even begin to imagine the work you put into the figures.

Very detailed realism. At first I was going to comment on the replication of the "dark" and "dreary" block walls but then I kept scrolling down to the amount of work put into the figures.
Well done!

This is an extremely important and macabre work of art you have created here Dimitris. This is a subject matter that is not tackled very often in the modeling world (come to think of it, I think I've seen only one other display dealing with the holocaust).
On the craftsmanship, I have to say that its first class, and to think that it was scratch built is absolutely mind boggling! I can do nothing but salute you!

Well done Dimitris ... brave choice. Not many model this side of the war, but it looks like you are doing it justice. Good job on the camp building as well.

Very powerful diorama. This should be at one of the Holocaust museums. Very detailed and well executed (no pun intended). Cheers.

Hmmm...sometimes reality can be distasteful. Just wondering how graphic you can go with IPMS. You rarely see death in war dioramas...how odd.

The scale and attention to detail in this scene is a credit to your skill Dimitris and I very much salute your un-flinching portrayal of the horror of the Holocaust.

For me as an Human with german nationality is it hard!
I hate diorama with tanks and coffee. That is not the war! Your diorma is war and tell me a story.
