I like it - lots to look at and the vegetation effects are good. What size is the overall display? And I'm guessing 1/35 scale?

1/35?!?!?!  The base must be huge.  Now I want to watch the movie Hamburger Hill again!  Of course I have the movie along with many great war movies.  Thanks for sharing your work with us... Yes

That  looks pretty cool! Couple of questions:

How many figures are there? I think I counted about 10 or a dozen?

Could you post a pic of the whole dio (I know it would lose some detail, but it would be nice as a 'reference'.)

Which figs did you use?

Nicely done. Yes
