Wow, this is sweet!
Even with near 100 degree(F) temperatures outside this diorama makes me want to put a coat on! Very convincing!!

Hi Andrey,
Excellent work, the setting is simple but very effective with a good interaction between the figures. The painting and finish is exceptional from the vehicle, figures through to the ground work. You have one to be proud of there. Nice work and thanks for sharing.
Cheers

Love the snow absolutely! You are truly able to simulate them so cold and scattered well in the overall groundwork, also on the tank and its tracks. Also the incredible work on figures, congratulations mate! Many thanks for sharing, inspiring me so much ^^

Wow! Superb show!!
Even the skin tone suggests the harsh cold! The Balalaika player is really holding the instrument and "playing"....and I could go on for a long time, but other gentlemen have preceded me anyway.
And I can now understand their enthusiasm...because I share it 100%
Congratulations Andrei!!!
Cheers
