Well at least when you have enough money. Not to forget time.
Check this out.. Quite a good panorama. Big pic so it may take a while to load for some of the surfers here

I think you need to pull out the trick in the Shep book on the bomber factory - Mirrors. You could do a shadow box type and put mirror on either side and you only have to do about 1/4 of the figures.

It would still be a challenge.
Nice photo Faust

Ahh, If the correct figures are not available, sculpt one or two, make a mold and robert is your mother's brother......

Good idea on the mirrors Slodder. Must keep that in mind...

Cheers

You could try in 1/700th scale and use the tiny etched brass people. Of course by the time you'd finish the 5 or 6 thousand figure your eyes would have failed. But it would be on heck of a diorama...
