Hey guys,

My first attempt at dia/vignette. I used old Tamiya kit I had for years. Tried a lot of new tech,and methods a hit and miss. But that's how you learn.

Nicely done Ken. The only criticism I'd make would be the amount of space you've used. Personally I'd have used a slightly bigger base as the infantrymen look as though they're on the verge of falling off the dio because they're right on the edge. It just seems a bit claustrophobic which the desert isn't. Not a biggie but one to bear in mind for the future. I look forward to seeing more,as this is great for a first effort. Wish my first dio had been as well done.

Ken,
Very nice! Your detailing efforts really paid off on the eye-pleasing diorama.

Cheers,

Very nice results for your first time out!! But I agree with Karl's comment about it appearing cramped. Leaving off that raised edge may have helped. Otherwise, nice going!
