ha! I see that you started up with something and ended up with something completely different, it happens. The story works, lost people asking for directions.
I like how you balanced the whole thing, the Elefant is balanced by the rock(nice, by the way) and the panzer riders are balanced by the guy on the horse.
about the elefant, I like how you faded the paint, looks kool! but what is that weapon thats behind the guy with the MG 42? I would like to know

Hi Antonio,
That's a beatiful diorama, congrats
I think you need some weathering on the tank and on the soldiers. The tank and the uniforms are pretty new(!).

really nice work there!
i really love the big boulder, i guess the only thing you need to do is to weather that tank more, dirty em up!
once again, great job!

Nice diorama, it keeps getting better and better.
One thing I would try to add are small arms shoulder straps. Get a bit of foil (or paper), add some fine wire buckles and a touch of super glue.

Thanks for the comments guys!!I took note of every critc and I will try to make it better!
Dragonslain- I don[t remember the name of the gun,I`ll check it out for you
Shonen- I apply the base coat, then some washes followed by some drybrush...no news on this!!!For the face, I painted with enamels,washes with oils.For the stubble I made some drybrush of medim and light gray.
Thanks again guys!

I believe it's an MP 44. Somebody correct me if I'm wrong. That is one heck of a diorama, Bus. Just another fantastic piece of history that you brought to life through your skill and ability. Thanks for your time.

Nice paint job Antonio and I really like the contrast between the horse and "Elefant"
Yep, its the MP 44 considered by many to be the granddaddy of the modern day assault rifle. For some strange reason it seems to be missing its pistol grip if my eyes aren't failing me again.

I think the last post, of Sonem Red was lost during the Armorama"blackout" :-)
Well, he was asking me if I could put some close photos of the pics, so here are they:
I´ll try to take some more

I like the work on the tank commander but you have missing something, you should paint a cranium on the uniform look at the pictures:

I think there should be more camo netting on the gun. Other than that the figures are outstanding and the tanks is awesome
