discussion Just playing around with a few ideas for the Stalingrad dio

[Guest]

Slow going this one. I have the bases now (4 separate pieces as the diorama is too big to store at full size)

Just playing round with the figures, vehicles, building and other accessories and trying to work out what looks best. Here's the first 2 bases and what I roughly will be going for in terms of figure/building placement ...

Looking very good so far. Keep working!!

Looking great Jack!!!
You've covered all angles, boxed in the areas of focus and also covered the different levels of the diorama so the layout is spot on!

Are you going to keep it in 4 pieces or will you join them at some stage to make it a rigid base?

Looking at yours I just wish my bl**dy figures could arrive so I can finish my little vignette... :/

Cheers jens planning on keeping them separate as there is no way I have enough room to store it in one piece in my little house lol. I'm hoping they might all look ok even when on display separately too.
