I'm thinking of making a diorama, my first dio, with a German Sniper. Like 'White death' byT oni Kysenius.
Can anybody me tell something about this, how to make self a figure, and give a site where I can find some info about German snipers during WW II?
Thanks,
Rick

If you are interesting in making a diorama, I think you post this topic in wrong section. If you want information about dioramas, ask the diorama fans in the Diorama section.

If you want some referenses to the sniper, take a look at this page:

Well - this may be the right place after all. We are "all about dioramas!". Just buidlng a diorama is a broad question...you need to pick a subject, pick your figure(s), build the background or scenery etc. You can learn a lot in this forum, and should also look over archived subjects, as we cover just about everything you can imagine... from replicating water, snow, or roads, to best ways to fill seams in plaster kits. A few nice resources that may give you good ideas can certainly be found in the GALLERY - DIORAMAS section, where you will find many fabulous dioramas - and some simpler projects as well. When you are ready to buy, I recommend your local hobby shop, but if there is nothing nearby then visit the manufacturer's sites, such as Verlinden, Custom Dioramics (modelmecca.com), and Plus Models. All carry a full line of figures, backround accessories, and tools. If you have a more direct question, be sure to ask! People here are always glad to help.

Rick, I updated the link. If the link still don't work, here is the adress:

Hola!

There are quite a few sets of German Snipers out there. DML released a set not to long ago ( a year ortwo maybe), it includes 2 winter snipers and 2 Summer or Fall snipers. Also, I do recall a set by Warriors, but I think it is out of production, perhaps they have a new set of snipers. Im not sure but you can check at http://www.greatmodels.com.

Thanks for all.
