Just saw this and I am very impressed. Very well thought out and realistic the way nature would take it over.
Griffin25, sorry for the late response. Yes Sir, it is 1/35th scale, "6 Pounder Anti-tank Gun" from Tamiya.
Wow, excellent work!
Beautiful work! Very lifelike!

That's superb. Inspiring in fact. As a beginner with dioramas I've noted several ideas and tips from this dio that I could try on my own. Thanks for posting.
Hold the tires over a flame and soften them up a bit to create the flat tire effect. Otherwise, this is an amazing model!!! This would also look awesome in a winter scene (can someone say battle of the bulge?)
Well Now ;
Someone has done his homework ! ! The dio is awesome ! I understand why the tires couldn't be deflated and so that's No Problem .That is a very nice group of effects that tell a good story . Nicely Done ! T.B.
That's not a model. That's art. Amazing work.

Really nice looking scene. I do like that groundwork, I was trying to get that look on my last armour dio. Going to have to look for some of that stuff.

Hey wow, super cool, I love it! The groundwork looks terrific! Only nitpick I'd add is maybe have the tires flat and the rubber rotting away but I'm not sure how you could do that though.

Forgot the chain pic. Stripping electrical wire, then braiding three strands together to suggest a chain. Cut this into segments to suggest a semi-buried look.
Combined an abundance of green things in grasses, leafy creeping vines, hanging mosses and sprouting lichen and contrasted that with rich, dark earth that will hopefully suggest to you a wet environment into which my Tamiya Six Pounder has landed, and is slowly being reclaimed by nature.
Used plaster of Paris over a PVC pipe to develop the tree trunk. While the medium was soft, used a small wire brush to shape and formulate the bark. The base out of wood has the indentations that would allow the 6 Pounder to sit on, hopefully giving the impression that its been sitting that way for a long time, undisturbed. Rock, plucked from my backyard looks to be granite. Added litter, moss, and lichen, with the lichen modeled by sprinkling green, black, and yellow pigment from a detail brush onto the rock surface wet with rubbing alcohol. Green static grass from Army Painter, light green leafy vines and fine and coarse green turf to portray moss, from Noch. Wooden bits from soil amendment bag from Home Depot in which, by the way, my heirloom tomatoes are doing quite well - praise the Lord. Thanks for looking.
