how about this

brrrrrrrr now that looks cold...Great work so far. There is a real sense of action going on. Great work.
Cheers,
Bryan

excellent dio there eric... the trees, river, bridge and groundwork looks good ... nice overall composition too.

Hi Eric,
very realistic , I like it...
Thanks...

Very nice groundwork. That bridge and terrain look fantastic. Can we get a better overall shot of the Sherman and Halftrack together with the guys?

Hi Eric, very good build, I especially like the bridge and trees. How about some more vech. and G.I. pics.- Cheyenne

Very nicely done indeed !

I love the groundwork and the trees. About the overall atmosphere I can say only one thing....It looks cold... spot on for this scene !

Keep it up.

Eric, this is KILLER!!! Great dio, man. That bridge is so cool, and the trees, groundwork are top notch, as is the water, man that looks cold!
I would just add a little snow or a bit of mud to the tank tracks and wheels of the halftrack, but you're still working on the dio...
Awesome work!

Eric..WOW...great dio you have there. Looks soo lifelike..i can feel the cold coming through my monitor..Love the bridge and the water..any chance your going to do a feature on this???

Congrats on a great dio. Lots of action. Your ground work is great, and I really like how you added camo to the base.

I can say nothing more than has already said about your supurb groundwork. As for your vehicles, I see you used the Tamiya "Battle of the Bulge" 105mm Sherman. Great Shermie, I made one a number of months ago. Your faded/ad hoc whitewash effect looks great. I noticed a slight silvering on the decals (specifically the front unit IDs). I also am wondering if you intend to put some snow on at least the rear of the tracks. A 30ton tracked vehicle going over snow is bound to cruch some up into the crevaces of the tracks.

Otherwise, awesome job and can't wait to see it finished. Remember it ends Tuesday!

En jij wil zeggen dat dit je eerste dio is ?!?!

Ooh oops, that's no English.....

Translation: you're trying to tell us this is your first dio??

No way!

Great work.....very very good!

Sup Buddy,
WOW, can I just say, with the tank and halftrack in there + the figures. That looks freakin awesome. I especially like the winter camo on the tank and halftrack. Would it be historically accurate to put a winter camo on your sherman like that? because, usually, they just whitewash it. Well anyways, what an awesome dio, youll be proud of this one for a long time!

that looks great,getting cold from looking at it.the level of modelling is really going up in the low lands i will try to keep up,and that will not be easy.can we have some more please.

greetz jeroen.

Wonderful work Eric! I like it very, very much! Action and cold go through us when we look at it! Splendid! I would like to ask you something, though: Why isn't ther a bit of snow on the vehicles? And why are the soldiers so tidy? Sorry for asking, just trying to help!
Cheers and happy modeling!

Great work Eric. Beautiful scenery. The snow and water is amazing.

I love the trees and the snow. What materials did you use?

You know, I seem to have a PC game in mind when I looked at this dio: It's a scene from Call of Duty: Allied Offensive!

Absolutely amazing dio.

Angela

Eric, congrats on the fine work. I have to agree with everyone else it is excellent work!!! I feel cold The bridge, trees and water are all great. Looking forward to seeing the finished dio. Maybe there is a feature or On Display in the works? Cheers Kevin

Hallo Eric,

Very realistic dio. Everything is very confincing.

I especially like the compositon of this dio, the integration of the base with this camo look, rarely
seen.
Can you tell me something about the telegaph poles.
What did you use for the cables.
Good job,

Claude

PS.: I am new here. Hallo to everyone . I hope to present some of my works soon.
