Hmmm...

This might be really obvious, but.... has anyone ever done a D-Day diorama, in action sequence, on the beach? Maybe lot's of people have and I just haven't noticed...

you mean has anyone ever done it? or just here on the forum? I think I have seen one here, maybe it was just Nord's, but I have definitely seen several elsewhere online.

I have seen several as well. I'm sure there have been hundreds done in the 62 years since D-Day at Normandy.

I've seen a few, but go figure if I could find any links to them now.

Have you seen this museum? No closeups, but you get a sense of how big their dioramas are in the 3d virutal tour...

Thanks....I'm not big in the diorama scene, so I haven't seen any.
