Paul,
Your attention to detail in the diorama is amazing. This is one piece that can be studied over and over and still the observer will see something they haven't seen on the first, second, third or even the fourth look. Looking forward to the completed project. Great Job!

I think that you are using the fruil tracks if I were you I'd would bin them and get the masterclub metal bmp tracks with the little plastic pins they are brilliant and you don't need to make a blood sacrifice to the gods of modelling

The car is Mig or you use a plastc car??? At the same of above on REDZEBRA i dont found your molotov cocktail and base concrete block...may be yhey are finished??? By the way your work inspired me to realize same in Syria with Paracel figures a pick up and a brdm 2......for this reason i make you all these questions....!!! Then looking at the fantastic work you didi with fridge schratchbuild from you......we understand that this dioram is fantastic becouse you are a modeller with very talent, congratulations.

Hi mnario and many thanks for your kind words.
I will try and answer your questions -
The Mineret was a one of mould that redzebra did for me (It was actually a mould from a lamp stand) that I then inserted windows and doors - the base was from an old building I had lying around - the roof is a xmas decoration!
Yes the car is half of the mig resin car
The fridge is scratched built
And yes it just the 3 figures on this.

Wll finally getting some paint donw on this - firstly the trackes.
Firstly they were primed then sprayed with a number of different coloured reds and reust.
Then using a combination of MIG pigments and MIG washes built up the grime..
Once dry and given I have used the metal tracks was able to run sandpaper over the contact points to provide a highlighted point
