Just a few, do let you know it's finished even thought it's not a tank, gun, plane or gaz .

Great pictures of a beautiful diorama . Respect for your skills and craftmanship . Congratulations Hans !

Very fine work !

Nice work. The snow on this diorama is done very well. The figures and cannon are also well done. Thanks for sharing you work.

Beautiful work! Really captures the misery & bitterness of a failed campaign.

Very , very nice , I like your use of the raw wood for a base .

Nice work ! Really captures the misery very well.

Thanks.

Vive la difference Hans, great to NOT see a plane or gaz in sight, I’m sick of them! A beautifully rendered scene made all the more convincing by your typically excellent photography/staging. Reminds me of the discovery ?10? years ago of hundreds of soldiers in a mass grave near ? Vilnius ? who never got home in 1812.

Thanks Tim,
Just place your dio in front of your computer that has the background you need fullscreen and start shooting. You can easily try more backgrounds.
If you have powerpoint make a PP presentation with the pictures you want covering a whole slide (you can alter the size of the slides if you want) and start the presentation. Easiest way to show a picture full size on your screen.
As for tanks, planes etc...next on the workbench is a US Civil war dio and the Thunderbird 1 launchbay....
I'll post the results when ready since I noticed that building-blogs on subjects like mine get little or no attention.
Perhaps a 'pre 1939' forum should be added on Armorama

Very good idea, I had not thought about that. Thank you for
this indication.

You're welcome. If you use powerpoint (add the backgroundpicture to the slide) you can alter the size of the picture by altering the size of the slide. In my case the trees in the background were too big so I altered the slide to a "banner"size.
Then start your "presentation" and start making your pictures.
The nicest thing is that it is easy to make pictures with different backgrounds.
Dont use flash, of course.
