Ryan,
you built a very nice but also very original diorama. By the way you have shown us this great challenge of modelling - is a bit like telling a story, sometimes about things you don't know so well. For example modelling a sewer, when you haven't seen one. Neither did I so how do we work it out if you want to show me a dio showing a sewer? That's the challenge I'm talking about.
Then there's the newspaper thing. I know you wanted a newspaper with "Hitler dead!" in the headlines. The thing is I doubt if there was such a newspaper somwhere near from Berlin. I mean imagine this - bullets flying everywhere, hordes of commies running around, no electricity, no paper and you want to print a nice German newspaper? Doesn't sound like it, I'd say.
The paper you got in German is very interesting for me - it's Posener Tagesblatt - in english Poznan's Daily - and it happens Poznan is my home town. It's like 300 klicks east from Berlin, and was a Polish city before and after WWII. We had some heavy fighting in January/February 1945 and heavy fortifications too.
To avoid Indy having to "dig me out"
I'd like to make a disclaimer, that I don't mean no harm, have a lot of respect for the work of my honourable colleagues on this and also other forums and I also like this diorama a lot. Ryan, good luck with your next projects (what would they be?), hope to hear from you soon and wish you a nice day
Pawel
