Introduction

SB Models have within their SB Scotia range some handy diorama accessories. This is a look at one such product: Sandbag Sections No 2.

The Set

The set comes packed in a zip plastic bag with the product details and number on a small paper tab. Both pieces are cast in a light grey resin. The set consists of 2 sandbag sections, one set at right angles and the other a small straight section.

The large section measures 50 mm x 30mm (approx) and consists of a 5 high stack of sandbags and a wooden box, plus a rubble filled oil barrel. Detail on both sides of the stack looks good and the bags are somewhat random and natural looking. The second section measures 43mm x 14mm (approx) and consists of a small increasing stack of bags (4 high) and a largish wooden box. Again the detail is very nicely done.

Each stack is set on a small base which you could trim, sink into your setting, or leave as is.

Conclusion

A very handy little stack of sandbags and boxes which should be useful to both diorama and vignette builders alike. The bags are stacked in a realistic manner and the addition of the wooden boxes in the base gives a nice variation.

You could make your own set if you have the time and patience but alternatively for those who don’t have the time this set offers a quick and easy solution for a small corner section.
