looks good. i think that maybe a little more debris would look good between the big chunks and the small litter. just my opinion. good job with the tank and the wall. u have a nice dio there.

I just read the rules and my interpretation is that the model must not have any scratchbuilding. It did say you could provide a simple display base. I don't know if this is just a wooden base. I would think a small wall and street is an appropriate simple environment for a tank.
I am not a judge so do not take my opinion as official.

Thanks for the comments guys.
The wall qualifys because my entry is a diorama not just a model on a display base.

Looking good overall Andy. One comment about the wall; it seems to be thicker at the bottom than it is at the top. Also, from the angle of the fourth picture it almost looks like it is curving forward.

Marty,
hehe Good observation skills!!!!, yep the wall is a bit thicker at the bottom(this was my first attempt at a plaster wall) and i think it may have a little bit of a lean.

Good effort .some more work on the wall needed, and also as told many different sizes of debris needed along the street
