Hi guys,

I m back in the forum since my lastest project.

I base my diorama from a picture frame of a battle scene from the marcket garden battle, when the british airborne troop were overrun by the german.

The kit is from Bronco and it dispicted the 6 pdr very well, the kit by himself is a artillery gun so very delicate and fragile.
The figurine are from bronco aswell with sone replacement head from Resicast.

Enjoys and let me know if you have any comments

Hi Antoine,

Excellent work, a really fine scene. Just one observation, has the loader just been shot? He looks to be falling backwards rather than leaning forward to put the shell into the breach.

Either way a very interesting looking scene, well done indeed.

Hi Antoine - wow - this is a beauty! I like the crisp edges between the colors, very nice! Yes - the composition itself too!

Cheers
Nick

Hi Guys,

thank for your comments,as the dii is not finished yet, the loader isn't fixed yet on the ground, he's not been it for sure. I done some extra work on the walls and add some extra details on the ground. I will post some new picture by Sunday night.
best regards and thank for watching's

Warin, excellent little dio..! Looks like a certain Sergeant VC winners gun position......!!!! I love it. Cheers mate, Jason.

Yep it's base on a picture frame that I found on internet about a british sergent that lose is live trying to defend is perimeter from a German attack in oosterbeck, so far I try to represent the moment before he died.

Yes, the artwork id displayed in Aldershot, but Lance-Sergeant Baskeyfield VC ran over the street and manned the second gun alone, all servants having been killed before!

Brave chap!

Cheers

Romain

Very nice scene.

Really like the colours and the athmosphere.

Cheers

Hi,

great work indeed, just a small comment: the city is called "Oosterbeek", not "Oosterbeck". "Oost" means east, "beek" means stream.

cheers,

Matthijs

Not to mention that his right hand should be reversed so that he is supporting the shell.

Oups sorry for the wrong spell, its important for me to get the things right as I like to be precise.

Awesome...

Few more picts from my serie of photos, I need to take the final pict of the acheived scene

Awesome! Meant to comment a lot earlier but never got to it. Love the whole scene, just read a bit more into it a month or so ago. Great composition of everything Nothing over-done or left out.

Hi guys,

That it, the dio is over finaly after couple o month of work.

I posted some picts with the separate items to show how much work I have done so far. Sorry for the picts quality but I still need to pratice with my camera.

Let start by the 6pdr by himself




Then all the small items that make the diorama and where I spend a long time to finish:



The base by herself without the gun and the other items but ready:


And for the end the final diorama with everything:








See you for a next project and if you have any question do not hesitate.

Excellent diorama, compact and full of action. One minor point and it is minor, a bit more dust and dirt is needed. Those guns kick up a lot of dust. Otherwise, superb project.
