kbm does it again. He brings a wonderfully narrated build. Lots of history, research, and detailed information on the entire process.

Well done.

Nicely done.

Awesome Job Keith!!!! Your article is excellent, very informative and well written. It is a great extension to the diorama it describes. The dio itself is wonderfully done as well. Congrats my friend. Excellent work Cheers Kevin

Kevin -

Outstanding job. PzKpfw IV, figures, details, and the overall execution are all top rate. Very well suppoted theme. Special thanks on the Article as this was very informative and helpful. Hope my "Ardennes" diorama comes out half as good. Fantastic job.

Thanks for the positive comments everyone. Sometimes being an obsessive note taker has its benefits!

Mike, I ordered the Heki Grass from Scenic Express in Pennsylvania. They have a website, but you have to call their 1-800 number to order. They offered great service. Check out this thread for more details than you probably wanted to know: https://armorama.kitmaker.net/forums/41947&page=1
Hope this helps.

Keith:

Lovely work on that "Bulge" dio. And the article is first class as well, as so many other have said. But dude, your figs are really first class! I think those may be my favorite 1:35th scale figs I've seen on the Big A since I came aboard in April. Congratulations on very nice photos as well.

Keep 'em coming

thx keith and excellent work once more.hope to see some more kick butt work with heki grass from you as well looks wonderful

Great dio. I really like it. Panzer, building, figures and groundwork looks great.

I must congratulate you on the detail of your diorama.

While I was looking at your building I thought about something that I wanted to do for a diorama. Create a building that has burnt down. Obviously smoke would have poured out of the windows, blackening the outside of the windows and the areas above the windows in a v-shape!

Your research is all very thorough, but if I may make a criticism? IMHO the grass is too green (it is mid-December), and the ground is not muddy or wet enough. It didn't snow much until after Christmas, but it was just mild enough to rain and drizzle constantly, making very messy conditions - especially where tanks were driving.

Thank you for this in depth description of your dio.

I like the scene you made very much and it is well composed.
I would have loved to see some slates on the roof. I also agree about the colour of the grass. A bit more of a early winter look would be nice.

Thank you also for your construction tips for the Panzer IV. I seriously need to reread other reviews of it also, i was not aware that the kit has such problems.

Congratulations
