Hey guys!Working on this dio... The groundwork is made with celluclay and sand,The rock is made of plaster and the Elefant is from Italeri.Suggestions and critics are always wellcome!

I'll wait on color to comment on the base, looks pretty good to now.
I'd add more burlap to the barrel. Right now it looks like camo gone neglected.
Whats going in the empty space at the front of the bolders?

Antonio, very cool looking elephant you have there. I also like your base so far. It looks like a very interesting dio in the making. as Scott said, whats going on the flat area in front of the rock? Cheers Kevin

Thanks for the comments guys!
I think i´ll put some german soldiers in a resting position or moving on.Or maybe an abandonned russian anti tank gun...what do you think??

I take it that the scale is 1/35?... Looks good so far. "Q"

How about both German figures AND a knocked out AT gun? Little scavanger hunt going on as they move forward. Just make sure you do your homework on the plant life and existance of suck rock outcrops

Thanks!
Slodder- Do you think there´s room for all of it??
About my "homework" :-) : I get the idea based on a photo, I have to find out the link again!

Bus,

I really like your diorama. The rock outcrop looks great and the weathering on the tank is particularly nice...very sublte. Did you use a mold for the rock or carve it yourself?

Thanks armorguy!The rock is from a silicon mold from woodland scenics, made with plaster.

what figures dou you gonna use?

looking good so far bus. the elefant is nice. the rock looks good as well. in my opinion, you may want to add some medium size rocks around the big one, so it blends better with the scene, so it doesnt look like a huge rock just landed in a field or something. at this stage its tough to tell if it will look awkward, but thats only a suggestion. keep up the good work!

Antonio, Slodders suggestion is a good one. I think you have plenty of room. have some russian gear strewn around the knocked out weapon. will give the germans something to be rummaging through. Keep us posted. Cheers Kevin

Hey guys!
I´ll put 4 figures on the tank, getting a ride.And they will look to a soldier on a horse, pointing a direction to the tank commander .What do you think??
