This should be a feature on Armorama when you are finished.

I added Mininatur Ivy and tufts with blossoms (summer), here and there, very easy to use

Nice additions ! You also managed to avoid the even spacing of things most of us fall victim to. Looks very "Normandy" I think.

Thanks, Jerry!

Miniart farm cart-looking very nice, especially the wood grain. Although some cleanup is needed, mainly on the wheels. I didn't glue the small parts yet.

I added some details on the cart, which didn't like how they were molded-two latches on the front panel, metal braces on the wheels from aluminium foil.
Painted and drybrushed with various acrylics.
Next-oils, rust and weathering.

Things are looking really good on your diorama. I have enjoyed watching the progress. You have done a fine job on the cart. Keep up the good work.

I have replaced the Tiger commander, I think it's better suited for the scene

Excellent painting on the new commander. very very nice touch to this awesome work overall.
For the purpose of general information though,the waffen SS by this time (midsummer 1944) no longer used the pink edge on the panzer jacket,but only on the shoulder straps.
