(Pics) Diorama "The Sturmtiger"

Thank you so much for your kind words, Dorian!

awesome dio! great work-DJ

Many thanks for all your kind comments and compliments!

Aric, "Art Instructor" has been my armor/dio modelers for many years.

ERAD and pises, the tank crew looks relaxed because he's not in the front line, there's no
enemy around. The fallschirmjagers are just practising.

Gimp, you've made good points and they're all true. We'll be more careful in the future
about all details.

Very good job,well made

A nice looking model, but there is no reason in the world why they would stand the shells on their ends. First, it would allow dirt and rocks to foul the rocket's exhaust ports and the threads for the igniter which was screwed into the center of the base only after the shell was loaded into the breech. Second, the shells were always loaded while laying on their sides, there is even a painted band on the shell where the shell hoist is to be attached. Third, How many guys would it take to stand upright a 731 pound shell, let alone several of them. Fourth, they are stacked on the wrong side of the vehicle for loading anyway. Don't mean to beat up a nice looking model, but details are details....

Very nice job done, MM, as allways.
But I gotta agree, those two atmospheres don't make absolute immersion though......

Cheers,
Pisis

Very nice work. Question tough...what are the soldiers doin on the left like preparing to shoot someone in any second while the other one on the right is like relaxed? Good art work.

Very nice! Small and tight, but with fine character and straight to the point, so to speak.

What does that mean, "by Art Instructor"? Are you the model builder, or someone else?

[:0]oooooh[:0] and I just checked the web link, and I love that rain and fog effect on the pic! Definitely makes for an awesome scene detail.
