I know the scene your talking about.there will be a lot of trees in your dio make sure 20cm by 40cm is big enough.i mean you have got on jeep a kettenkrad,and possibly a kubelwagen plus you may need at least 8 to 10 german figures.like all dioramas they seem a good idea in you head but making them well thats a different matter.good look and if you feel confidant go for it and good luck

20 x 40 cm. is an awful large area to cover. Perhaps this scene it a bit too big when starting out with dioramas. IMHO it's best to start with something smaller like a 10x15 cm vignette / diorama thing.

Since I love the idea you came up with.... why not just the jeep in action ?
