i think you have a good dio setup there george. perhaps you could add more scatter grass on the empty spaces? coz' the dio base seems a tad too large for me.

as for the tanks and figs, the painting and positioning looks fine.... except for the blurry pics...

i see great promise on this one... keep it up!

Thanks Mojibo!
That's what i also didn't like!
It looks empty!
I used a big piece of wood for the base and placed the units a little scattered!
I was thinking to replace them and add a tent for the equipment group!What do you think of that?

....add a tent for the equipment group



you could add a supply dump, not with tents, but some camouflage roof netting on some poles, with sandbags around it.

about the empty spaces, maybe you can a kubelwagen near the tank, or just simply add a few figs around... could be soldiers marching, grouped for briefing or just relaxing and having a meal.

How did you make the base? It looks almost like plasticine by the photos. I personally would add more figures to have more activity going on the dio. Some may disagree but a good dio is one that has many focal points within in. ie: one part of the dio tells a different story to another part.

Yes Jeremy!
That's why i post it here!
I could use some advise for this!
I have no bibliografy for the panther so i just made it out of my fiction!
The base was made with white cement(i think that's how it's called)!
I was thinking to add a motor cycle that i have or some figures doing some work more!
Could you tell me if the colours are correct for the german units served in Africa or Afganistan?
That's what i wanted to represent at first place!!
