Im looking for a resin diorama base from verlinden, and i cant seem to find it on their website.
It is one of the more recent releases, and featured a slightly raised road with a culvert and stream in front, it also has a shrine or something behind the road.
Its a pretty large one, and was used in one of the features in the osprey 'modelling the Sdkfz 251' book.
If anyone can find the product number etc i would appreciate it.
Thanks
Joe

I have just searched through the Verlinden Catalogues from 1989 to 2002 and can find nothing like you describe despite dilligently searching each precious page. I dont remember it in later ones but maaybe mistaken as I used to borrow them from a friend as they were a lot of expense for very little change. Do you have any other description as it sounds like something made for the job as they did a shrine on its own and a farmyard, river embankment etc.

I remember seeing the diorama base you are looking for. If my memory serves me, I think that Verlinden used to have a "Masters Club" in which you had to belong in order to purchase certain items such as the diorama base.

Thanks for the replies fellas,
It is definately after 2002, it was used for an issue of military in scale too, Verlinden made a diorama with a panther on the base.
It has definately been cast in resin the same as the commercialiiy available ones as this is how it featured in the osprey book
Thanks
