Modeler bretheren,i have a #@%$& load of models,tanks and figures, all from the Russian Front,but i have no idea what kind of dioramas i can conjure up from there.Im lost in my large variety of troops and tanks. I tried to make a dio of my great uncle on his tank BT-5.I make a lot of mud clay and stuffed it of a large wooden tray.I made a muddy road in the middle,between the ''hill'' or ellevation and the side of the road on which was a papermade burned out PzKfw III. The best part is that i planted LIVE moss on the dio and watered it daily.The result was LIVE and beautifully rendered grass.I got tired of watering it after a month and dumped the contraption. I had another project about warships which you can read about in my post in the Warships section in the topic Tirpitz Aid. Any ideas would be muchas appreciated. By the way you can speak to me in 7 languages, Russian English French Armenian Arabic German and Espagnol. Thank you.

If you want some inspiration you can google Kursk and or Soviet dry docks for the ship subjects.
There are lots of pictures of both and you can get tons of ideas.
