...Look the Same!

Hello Campers! Here is my StuG IIIB Dio completed. I decided to skip the bird. The flies are so small you need a microscope to see them, so look closely!













Thanks for looking!

Hi Jonh

I was to see their works and give-reads my sincere congratulations and this last dio did an excellent work

Alberto

Awesome Dio!

I love the inclusion of "Non army thingies" aka flowers. I don't see those too much in military dios.

And the StuG looks great!

Rich

hey there i have to say ur dio is just excellent! Your grasp or groundwork and figure/armor painting is excuisite. I would never guess it was 1/48. By the way, what did you use for those longer grass bunches near the waters edge?
Ian

Thanks Guys. Ian the taller grass is from JoAnne's Fabrics craft section. I cannot tell you what the real plant is though!

Looks good John as usual

Overall, an excellent dio John. Painting, composition and atmosphere all are top notch .... and when realising its 1/48 ... WoW!

I love your flowers. What are they and where you get them? It adds to life of the scene.

John,

i never realised that this is in 1/48 scale!!

awesome build!

The end result is really nice John. For 1/48 scale you sure have brought out a lot of details.

Well done and in 1/48th- I do a lot of 1/48 due to railway modelling in that scall but a very nice job
Ian

Looks great! Still can't see the flies though! :-)
I too want to know how you made the flowers John?

Vinnie

As i posted in one of in progress topics,

this turned out into a GREAT scene

Excellent work Sticky!

cheers
Mirko

Your dio is nothing less than brilliant John, really well done. I hope we get to see many more.

Great Job. Simply fantastic

Excellent just like I thought it would be!!! Would love to see some close ups of the flies Kevin

Hi John,its not often i comment on armour dios,but this is great,i just love the overall look to it,the groundwork is suberb,just one thing,who shot the cow
Arthur

Awesome job! I never suspected it was 1:48! Congratulations! Everything is very well built, from ground work to figures! I really have to congratulate you for a magnificent job!
I have a question, though! What has happened to the cow? Why isn't it straight? Thanks in advance for your answer!
Cheers and happy modelling!
Prato

Amazing work.....

The water...well I don't have words for the water, it's you can almost feel the current dragging in the cows legs... wonderful.

Another thing that caught my eye, was the way you took care of the base.... how did you finisg that...it looks like some sort of spackle.... how ?

In short : MASTERPIECE !

I agree....this is a real masterpiece!

Way to go my friend!

Martin

Thanks all for the OVER THE TOP compliments. I'm not so sure I deserve them, but I will take them happily! :-)

Also here are some answers.

All the flowers are from the craft stores floral section.

The base is sprayed (Sorry Ex-Royal) with Granite in a Can - Somthing I picked up at the hardware store.

Jackhammer look closer, there are two flies.

The Cow is a fatality. Died from concusion blast, stumbled to its current location and expired.

Cheers (n )

Great job John. Every detail is very well thought and placed. Congrts

Thanks so much Wampum! Next dio may be a couple years away!

Don't make us to wait that much please..

Well We will see, I am about to start a big project for MMir. Maybe I can squeeze in somthing small! :-)

Great dio, i specially like the dwad cow touch.

Alex
