'Defiance'

This is a diorama I have been working on for some time now. It has taken a while and the major factor of that is the figures. As I am not a figure painting individual, I wanted to take as much time as possible with this diorama as to not compromise the entirety of it, due to bad figure painting. I have a little detail to add but it is complete now as-is. It's only the name, I am not too certain about. I wanted 'Rebellion' but I saw it was already taken by another fantastic diorama by a fellow modeller. So, if you all have a better name than what I already have; with impact to the diorama, I would be very grateful.

The diorama is based during the Libyan conflict. The opposition is holding ground in a nearby compound where they are at a stand-off with government troops, loyal to Khadaffi. They get extra reinforcement from two fellow komparerades who are running towards the on-going fire-fight.hope you all like this build as well as my figure painting.

I think I have improved just a little since my last figure painting job.









































 
'Re-enforcement'

Great scene Charles- really like the detail you've captured...looking online at the thesaurus, some synonyms for rebellion:

Defiance
Insurgency
Insurrection
Uprising

Wow! I did not think of that. Thank you very much indeed. Defiance is a word I like very much. I had another person recommend 'Skirmish'. But 'Defiance' seems to suit this better...I think.
 
'Re-enforcement'

Added a title to the diorama. It is made out of foamboard, which I made myself.
Thanks to Jeeves for suggesting the name.

 
Magnificent work Charles! I don't know why you think you can't paint figures; these look fantastic! Looks like you hit another one out of the park!

Thanks buddy for the encouragement. I just feel my technic is not quite adequate, after seeing other's great work.
 
Really nice diorama with a lot of dramatic and dynamic action. Nice eye for the little details. Nicely displayed - really like how you made the title.

Overall - EXCELLENT!

Cheers,
James
 
Thanks again James. After that pic was taken I did some paint touch-ups here and there to high-light certain areas.I probably will re-do it at a later date.
