Pak 40 urban ambush

[shaun platts]

Starting my 2nd small diorama. It will be a pak 40 firing from a ruined house.
For me this is a case of trying to push my modelling a little further.
Hope you guys can help where I might need and point out (nicely) any mistakes i will no doubt make.

Good start, Shaun. Looks well.

Quick question. Why clean anything up? Rough is beautiful. Keep in mind, the building has been bombed to hell and back!

Cheers,
Ron

Very true. Not entirely sure what I meant by cleaning it up.

My house had an unfortunate meeting the floor. It will be used for another project later on.
My pak 40 will now have a more rural setting.[ATTACH]287059[/ATTACH]

Look forward to the final diorama mate I've just built the same Tamiya kit and am also building a diorama for it Be interesting to compare final pieces. I'm exactly the same doing these little kits and dioramas to try improve my basic modelling skills as I'm very new to it

I will definitely keep an eye out for yours. I need to do more to try to improve. My problem is that I get stuck in a single way of doing things and don't try anything new. My aim is to change this.

Nice diorama.

Nice diorama. You figures look very good.

Thanks. Building a bigger base at the moment to put the pak on. Going to have it firing from behind a destroyed wall and going to add some dragon figures I bought to create a little scene

Also shame about the destroyed building it looked like a nice little piece

I will repair it at some point. I have a panzer iv that will look nice next to it.

I would love to get my hands on some new figures but I can't afford it.

I like this! Simple but nicely done.
