Is this a diorama or a real photo?? That ground work and vegetation looks really convincing.

backgound looks real, but there is halo-ing around what appears to be a really nice diorama and reeds on right look ps...
Awesome picture and subject nonetheless.

My guess, based on the size required for such a diorama, is that it is 1/48 scale: Ace models "Emka"; HobbyBoss KV-2; UM Models Gaz truck. The farmer's hay wagon looks familiar and the figures look to be a mix of brands including ICM.

Wish I could photoshop as well .... great display idea for a finished model. Zaloga has been using this idea for many years to great effect.
