A 1/35 diorama of a German Neblewerfer preparing for firing.

Hi Gerry, another great job was finished, congratulations!

IMO, Everything look so nice at all. Just one quick suggestion, you may significantly reduce the amount of chipping or major rust effect on the Nebelwerfer's ammo shells, since they could harm the crews or the artillery itself during its loading session into the firing tube and also on firing session, CMIIW.

Great job, Gerry!

Cheers

Nice to hear from you again.

Thanks for looking and the positive comments.

With regards to the chipping of the ammo I have actualy seen a wartime example and it was painted buff and the buff painted part was chipped heavily.

Great Dio.

Gerry Please send Armorama some pictures and a short write up, and then we will turn this into a picture feature for the site.

You're welcome my friend, also thanks for sharing

Wow, an unavoidable offering from the community, congratulations Gerry! That's a great opportunity and good luck for the future incredible ideas and projects

Hi,
Very Well Done, I especially like the Ground work ans placement of the figures here.

Agree with mil! The ground work is great and the placement of the figs is credible, i.e. just fine!

I would say that the helmets are definitely too "light/bright green" and the soldiers should not be carrying their K98s. After all the Nebelwerfer is a saturation weapon used on distances of 4-6000 yards.
And then the rifles become just a nuisance if you have to handle ammo crates.

The problem with themes like this is the limitations diorama-wise.
The positions of the figures are defined by the regs, and their activities are controlled too.

There is no need of a covered position, a quick and easy overall access to the gun being more important, thus limiting the "drama" in terrain a little.

Nevertheless they can make for an interesting scene and you have done a great job here!

Congratulations

Romain
