Wrong Direction
Posted by Anonymous on Monday, April 25, 2005 10:54 PM
Hey All,

Here is the other diorama I did while I was out injured. I call it Wrong Direction. Based some where in Europe during the Napoleonic Wars. A French Supply wagon is told by the French Infantry Sgt that they are headed in the wrong direction. The supply wagon is made by Italeri as are the figures. Both are 1/72 scale. If anyone out there is thinking of getting the wagon, be forwarned. It was a pain to put together. The parts did not fit right and needed a lot of work. Took me around 4 hours just to fit together. Sorry for the bad photos. All I have. It took me about 2 weeks to finish. That included working on it for about 8 to 9 hours a day. Everyone was researched and painted according to what they wore. Well here they are.

nice dio price. well done. only thing i could say would be next time use a smaller base. theres a lot of empty space there, and itd focus more attention on the figures and wagon, the center of attention in this case.
