Did you do anything to the foam besides paint it? No plaster or spackle? Looks very inpressive and real. Good work

Excellent diorama, KAzak!
Those Tamiya figures look fine to me!

88mm Flak Bunker

Tamiya's old 88 kit, a royal pain in the rear to build, but a nice looking kit. I used the kit supplied figures, although they're ancient, no sense in tossing them. The bunker is scratchbuilt, using blue insulation foam, ran through the table saw and then through the compount mitre saw for the angles. The stairs are also foam. Sandbags are scratched out of self hardening clay, and did crack a bit when they dried (real old clay) Got pics of flak installations where the sand bags are actually that size! [:0] Sand is craft sand from Michaels, netting is cheesecloth. Enjoy, comments welcome!











I painted the bunker Quaker Grey craft paint (Delta Brand) and added a straight black artist oil wash. As soon as the wash hit the foam, it's like it almost turned it into real concrete!
