Thanks, Chris. And as Frosty once said...the prisoner was sent to the headquarters for "grilling".

Thanks Frank & Mike. As the budget is getting diverted to other priorities, I need to find ways to keep on building and the spares box has been very cooperative. lol.

Nice work Dwight!!

For those who stated this was a non-combat diorama.... I'd say trying to catch a porker like that would be more combat than one would imagine! Yikes!!

Beautiful work, I like seeing "Spares Box Put-Togethers"! Wink [;)]

Take care,
Frank

Thanks for the reply guys. I actually believe that there are a lot of good diorama ideas that do not focus on the actual fighting. And I hope more modelers will do work on such ideas, too.

I like it!!! it's perhaps the first non-combat war diorama I have seen yet!!!! Adds a little human side to the war... of course the pig might not agree haha...

Well this is neither really new nor old. The idea came from my old diorama which was accidentally (really?) knocked down by my 2 year old kid from the table last weekend. [:0] Some of you may have seen the old dio but I have to remodel it (or what's left of it) to salvage a good idea. Tongue [:P] It is not fully completed as I have yet to put it on a wooden base and the paint I think is not yet dry.

With some additional figures and stuff from the spares box...I give to you, DIORAMA NO. 4 Ausf. B Big Smile [:D]
