Hello all, I have been busy last night and again this morning. I think the Su85 is finished. so please let me know what more it needs. I have included a couple pics of it on the diorama. I wished I could have taken them outside today but its overcast here, better pics will follow when I get a chance. There are more pics in my gallery if you would care to have a look.




Cheers Kevin

I think the whole Dio, looks great.
Nice work.

That is very impressive. Great work.

Brill stuff........Well done..........

Can I have it? I have been following you on this Dio and it is BEAUTIFUL to say the least. The SU85 has been finished beautifully also. the whole scene stands out and screams winner. Thanks for sharing the build with us all here.

The photo is fantastic. The lighting and the light blue back ground look like an evening shot.

Very nice. Wondeful work on the tank.

Looks great!
You could also put a lone German soldier on the loft of the barn trying to look out (if there is a window).
He could be holding a bayonet as he has run out of ammo.
Oooh, exciting!

Thanks to everyone on the comments jonasaberg- if you look close enough you will see a german soldiers head in the opening of the barn loft door
I still have to finish up the road and I am still waiting on that verlinden farm cart *sigh* Been waiting since mid march for that one. I guess I will just have to scratch one using the wheels from the field kitchen. And I still need to get a few more figures in cold weather dress for the antitank weapon since the puppchen isnt feasible anymore. Next up putting all the tools away in the barn and filling up the granary. Its starting to get a little sunny outside so I'll see about getting a couple daylight shots. Thanks again to everyone. I'm glad you like my work. Cheers Kevin

Oh I didn´t see him there. Great idea if I may say so
You know, I prefer taking pictures on a slightly overcast day as I´ve found that direct sunlight will make colours appear lighter than they are, especially light colours.

This diorama just keeps getting better ! Maybe you will see it in the pages of MMiR or Armor Modelling someday ??

Your SU-85 looks just plain AWESOME.

Cheers !!

Thanks again guys, shame on me but what is MMiR? Hopefully by the end of the weekend I'll have the AT guns crew figured out, I'll have to see what the LHS has on hand for a cold weather crew. I also am going to head outside for some better pics. Cheers Kevin
