Greetings everyone, here is my recent completed model; a WWII German 8 ton semi-track with Flak 37 anti-aircraft gun. The concepts of this vignette is to depict that somewhere in the Eastern front, during the regroup,repair and resupply period, a German crew was taking this opportunity to decorating a recent kill marks on the gun shield.
Hope you guys like it and thanks for viewing.

That is an outstanding job on this diorama Especially the overall effect of the weathering and fading of the paint job I love the way there is some spilled white paint on that green box
Great job

Outstanding piece of work Coca. excellent paintjob, weathering and groundwork. Figure looks good to. The green in the splinterpattern looks very green though.

excellent job there coca! love the details, weathering and the dio setting... ! the figure's camo & pose are nicely done

... oh yeah your photography skills are quite good too. often some model kits are expertly finished but let down by poor photos.. but in your case your model-making skills and photography skills complement each other.

cheers!

Hi guys thank you very much for the compliments and comments.
The figure is from Dragon and I have modified it to suit the dio.
Hibert, the model kit is from Tamiya and I did not use PE set. In fact if you look closer and carefully, I have enhance the model with some plastic cards and metal rod.
Thank you. cheer
