Hello Dave,

The things I used for this diorama:

For the house: wood (MDF), cardboard and for the window- and doorframe wood from fireworks (windows).

The stones on the street/pavement are made from wood (MDF) and small stones.

The fence is made from plastic (Sticks you use for coctails).

Paint: acryl colours: black, white, yellow, red

Drybrush: acryl colours: black and white.

I made rust from scrap.

Helmet, bike and uniform from Dragon.

Name- and numberboard: computerprints with rust

And a lot of rubbish and fireworks.............

;)

Hi Hans,

Not much too it, but it still works! The new pics of the bike show a superb build, it looks so lifelike! Building and interior are very nicely done, love the shutterwork. A couple of figs would really polish this one off, a dio to be very proud of!

Cheers

Kelly

Very competent and realistic paint and finish. Can we get an overhead shot of the whole thing.

Without a doubt we can all learn more from your work here Hans,the attention to detail is outstanding right down to the rubble and peeling paint! Most excellent work! Will we see any military vehicles married to your work in the future?

Wow, that is one superb diorama. What kit does that jacket come from in the dragon series?

Thanks

hans, very nice!
What scale is it in? You said Dragon parts so I assume larger scales like 1/12 figure sets for the bike, helmet and clothing?
