Time come back to my relation ,before all of You forgott about it.
Outside city part is mostly ready.On the basement I put some layers of mud mix with glue to properly thickness.

When the mudd start to mortar i did tracks traces used my Tiger RC 1-24 scale and one tool looks like this one for zimmerit.

Trees and bushes are from modelers shop.Put grass need few layers too,and it `s arduous work if you want have possitive effect.I cover grass by cars clar -lack to better set.
All look to sweet for me now,but the "last word" I `ll do ,when city is ready.
Houses schemes I glue to styro and cut -out.I must decide to do or not silicone forms because I plane to do more houses by plaster of paris.

That all for now.Reagard from building -square! Smile [:)]

Hello and thanks again.

ArmorMaster , if You ask me,i should say true.I`m crazy man on 1-25 scale,even not to much models in my scale in world,but You can find old wave from 70 -ties-

Bandai 1-24 KT,Panther,Jagdpanhter,Tamiya`s 1-25 T34-85 , SU 100 , Tiger I ,and later Academy (Tamiya`s copies1-25 Panther ausf.A and Jagdpanther ).

Revell with Opel Blitz 1-24 (and now Italieri copies) is the next firm.

New wave is Hasegawa with 3 Willys Yeep and 3 Kubelwagen and Tokyo Marui with 1-24 Tiger I (RC model) . You can find resin or plastic models from smaller firm too (if You want to find1-25/24 scale).

And now the most important ----

In Poland You can find 3 big firm with ...paper-card model- they have really big Armor(but not only) offer in 1-25 scale .My paper-card model You can find in my profile at Armor department here at FSMF.Welcome to comments them.

Short time ago started new firm Draf- Model with laser-cut parts to this models ,for example track and wheels.They are very useful for sure,and give You possibility to do move able tracks!!!!!!!

Over all I do resin figures to my scale by scratch or by converting small available1-25 figures.

This diorama complete my "1-25 scale disease " only.

P.S. I should to introduce my friendly paper-card modelers forums here for all of You.I have write at my last post "T34 collection" few word about it and put links there.Welcome !! Sign - Welcome [#welcome]

A big diorama to 1-25 scale

Posted by PITERPANZER on Sunday, July 30, 2006 5:47 PM

Hello!
I would like to introduce my project big diorama to 1-25 scale.I started last year ,but no time to translate all.

The base is wooden frame and has diameter 2mx 1m.It has holes for connect with next section 1x1 m or 2x1 m by screws.

To this frame i screw on styrene plate,to make all light and stiff groundwork.
On this plate i `ve done scheme of my project,on my case it`s a frontal city,waiting the defence.At this time (not exactly predetermine) across city travel unknown(today) division.All vehicles ,what You see on pictures are there only today just for test.
After I sketched streets ,for good look - diameter verification.

Now is time to make sculpture of terrain (lie?) ouside city,where the defence button up (get ready).
I used old newspaper,somethimes glue to styren and squeeze where i need.

Ready terrain i glue black cloth.Black is better for ground because from the beginning imitate ground,but at this case is over.I hope no problem with white suiting.

Now we are at the city.
i glue th houses corners for easier planning.For the houses walls I use styro(german name is Styropor).The windows holes are easy to cut,the same with roof construction.I do elevation from plaster glue.
