The vehicle is the Dragon 1/35 Hornisse (Nashorn, early variant) - for details about the build see my post from 8/14/14. The figures are from the Field Marshal Rommel and Staff" (the General) and "Das Reich Division: 1943-1945" (commander). I originally intended for this to be a full-fledged diorama but that project has been put on indefinite hold as I am currently making another model which will probably take me some time.

Hi Kevin ..Great job on your Nashorn.. The interior looks well lived in ...If I might make a suggestion .. The camo net looks too stiff and kinda takes away from the over all look .. You might want to try soaking the net in a white glue and water mix and then drape it over the gun and shield. It will make things cling more naturally and look heavier .. Try it on an old kit before hand of course ..

I also want to compliment you on your winter jacket camo .. It really has the look .
Good job sir ..

Thanks - I'll try the white glue trick.
