Here is my second (and first Aircraft) 1/48 diorama. First one was a Schwimmwagen for the "Amphibs" Campaign. This one is based on Signifer's 1/48 Grumman JRF Goose I built for the "Medics" Campaign. A feature about the build can be found here .
The diorama was made with a photo frame I purchased on sale. Fortunately the frame was the same color as the plane! I used plaster for the ground work and Railroad material for the grass. The figures are from Tarmac, a french brand available at Quarter-Kit's website.
The fuel drums and the jerry can are from the Tamiya set. I scratchbuilt an access ladder and the wheel chocks with wire. The story is that the two guys at the rear are waiting for instructions. The one in front of the Goose is asking the pilot and the officer how they should load the plane...
Now that I made my first steps, I think I will build at least a base for every aircraft I will make in the future... it's a lot of fun and it really adds something to the model. I'm afraid you're gonna see me more often on the Diorama forum!
