Really, you can just post a pic of the completed dio. But I like progress pics, so I promote progress pics!. Oh, and welcome to the build!!

I'm almost finished with a desert stuka, and i was planing on incorporating it into a dio, so i'll join. If anybody has any ideas about a dio using this plane, let me know, because i'd like to make it more interesting than just a plane in a field. Also, it's 1/72.

Aside from just being in an airfield? The only ideas that come to mind would be an airfield that is under attack via infantry/armor or maybe a plane that crash landed in the woods or  in a town, sorry, but thats all that comes to mind ( Im not too creative )

Hey, I'm in!

Right now I'm doing one of the Dragon 1/35 Sd.Kfz. 251 3-in-1 kits in a ruined city dio (one of the old Verlinden dio bases), and an Sd.Kfz. 250 is next, but I'll also be cranking out a few Pz III and IV dios in the next few months.

I'd also like to see if there's any interest in a halftrack GB. Anyone?

you mean in the GB sticky at the top of each forum? or an individual post? Ill post this in the stickys for now.

No, I meant like a simple post in each of the other forums (namely armor) just informing people there that we're having a GB.

Speaking of which, I've managed to get some work done. I have a base cover of celluclay with some earth, and am starting to cover it with groundcover. Still a long way to go, especially in the panting and weathering of vehicles and figures. The dio is of two US vehicles, stopped in front of a simple farmhouse, asking the locals for directions. I wanted a reason to try creating a plaster farmhouse from scratch, so the diorama was created. I'll see if I can post some progress shots soon.

I just found your post on the GB and it sounds great! I'm currently building a series of Tigers with my daughters and this sounds like the perfect jump into dioramas. Count me in!

The badge looks good.

A suggestion..you may wish to post a link to this thread in all the other major sections. I suspect there are users that just don't go to various other groups.

yeah add me to,i have 4 1/72 105's with crews i've been wanting to put into a dio,

cheers

Right on! Ill add ya right now.

Oh, and what do you guys think of the badge?

hernando:

Add me to the list and I will give it a go. I have a couple ideas in the works that would meet the specs on this.

Cheers;
