Given the circumstances of war...this is of the 2% that didn't mess in their pant for the day.

Imagine being pinned down in life or death battle...and suddeny you feel the urge.

Makes you think about that saying "caught with your pants down".

I was wondering when someone would post a diorama using those figures. Excellent build. It is not one that would create a new category for a competition....I don't think anyway

Although it would be funny to see if the judge giving the awards could keep a straight face when presenting ..... First place for "Piece of Crap" goes to.....Second for "Plop Plop whizz whizz...oh what a relief it is" goes to....

Anyway. Great build.

Cheers;

I kept trying to figure out where the 2nd poster/picture was, too... I only saw one, but hey, I do need a new prescription for glasses still.

Very well done quality of work, and subject matter?  I agree that sometimes it's nice to see some fresh cr*p.

Makes me think of the Darth Vader on the toilet posted sometime back.

Don't forget to wash!

I appreciate the humanity of it all.  Of course, the workmanship is exceedingly good.

Question for some of you....when's the last time you saw a dio of a panther/tiger/sherman that made you think "aha! Now, that's different!"?

RTODD,

Love your work.  Not because it is funny, but it shows the true human side of the story.  Like you said, not every German supported the Fuhrer.  Those soldiers simply fought just to stay alive so that they can one day go back home to their loved ones.  I was watching The longest day and saving private ryan not too long ago.   Both movies also had some anti-hitler comments such as "Bavarian Corporal" or "F-Hitler".  I remember when Monica Lewinsky scandal broke out (at the time I was going through my ROTC training) and soon after that, we received the direct order from the Pentagon stating that any uniformed personnel talking about this issue or our commander in chief will be court martial.  Because you are serving the country doesn't mean you are serving the man who is in charge.

Zokissima,

 FYI, there is only (1) one picture (not poster) in the Dio and it's of Hitler being p---- (aka #1) on by one of his troops, he did not have the picture with him, it just happened to be laying on the sidewalk when they rode by and stoped to take care of things. The other troop is taking a sh--- (aka #2) He has no picture or poster under him. His left hand is on top of a newspaper, use to wipe with. TP was not readily available during World War II and they had to use what they had. As for how I got the idea, when I was overseas in Germany (1972/1975), I had seen a photo of a German Soldier doing just what's in the dio. After all not all German Soldiers or the German people supported the little guy.

Great and totally original idea and a really different dio. I love it and I'm not ashamed to say, it really appeals to my sense of humour. Thaks for making me laugh.

The figures are Verlinden items. They have two separate figure sets with soldiers excreting bodily refuse. I don't want to appear stuffy or anything like that. Chances are I'm younger than many of you on the board. Its not that the dio is not funny, it is as such, I just think that both of them going on the posters is just pushing the point a little too hard, kind of a like a comic constantly yelling in my ear "huh, get it, get it, ha ha, get it, you get it, do you get it?". It just reminds me of a writeup I read by Shep Paine regarding a dio he created with a similar element of humour. Subtlety is key, IMO.

I think one poster would have been enough.

On a more erious note, you're painting is excellent, as are all the little touches....including the brown bits.

You`ve executed a very revealing moment that undoughtidly happened many times over,your work on this scene is excellent and I do like it very much but for me I would have preferred a standard busy look eating or having a last drink together.This is one of those subjects that for me is an understood given as is death in modelling,not something I`m ready to portray. Very nicely done though!

I think it's funny as hell, a nice change from the usual battle scenes, nice base, excellent painting of the debris, figures, and the other "add ons" LOL

I'll comment strictly on your painting, the dio base, assembly and such. I think you composed the dio fairly well, the painting, debris, and weathering all fit together very nicely, and definitely seem to belong to one whole. I love the bottles behind the wall. Subtle little details, but they add so much. As to the topic, meh, you just appealed to the lowest common denominator. Both of them just happened to have such posters on hand. One, ok, but both...
