That is one lovely little vignette Jack, well painted and constructed. Great work.

Thanks guys. Was a nice quick build really good quality as you'd expect from Tamiya. Only disappointment is that the road signs are cardboard cut out from the box and not plastic parts.

It doesn't matter that the road signs are cardboard. They look the part for sure!

I love how you made the map, and made it look real!
I tried something similar with a Panzer III with Rommel and crew but the map that was supplied in the instruction was way out of scale...
But it really brings to the scene to include a proper printed map

The diorama as a whole is borderline perfect if you ask me. It's compact and minimalistic - and yet speaks volumes!
Really artful in fact. Well done!

Wow jens great praise indeed! Thank you very much my friend.

I wish I could take credit for the map but this was also one supplied in the instructions to be cut out. This must of just been a better quality map than the one you got with your panzer III.

There are a couple of things I wasn't too happy with on the final piece, I wasn't too happy with the military police troops face (his eyes turned out way too dark) and I need to get better at taking photos as they didn't turn out as I wanted (I'm blaming the iPhone camera for now lol) but on the whole I was fairly happy with it.

Thanks again everyone for all your comments
