Well, I posted this in the Armor forum, but some people suggested posting it here as well, so I decided to give it a whirl!
This is my 1/72 M3 Lee from Mirage. All the details can be seen in the other thread.

I'm not sure if I really consider this a dio, since it does not have figures. However, it is a scene with terrain, foliage, etc... I guess I'll just leave that one open to discussion. As always, all comments and criticisms are greatly accepted!
Thanks for looking!

Hey bro,
That looks real nice. I like the weathering. The palm tree is a great touch too. Keep us posted!

Awesome stuff Chris.. that's 1/72.! Man you did a great job. The idea of that layout is great too..
Just one question, did you secure the tank to your base? If you did, what did you use and how did you do it?

Thanks for the kind words, guys!
I actually just stuck the tank on the base with the same white glue mix I used to hold the dirt on. I then built the dirt up around the treads to fill in the gaps. It seems to work fine, I just only pick it up and move it by the base.
