Thanks guys,

Peter I'm intending to use the miniart office furniture for downstairs along with the miniart beer wine and milk bottles stacked in a corner.
Being a collecfor of Verlinden products for the last 20 or so years I'm going to use the remnants of a kitchen stove and lounge along with carpets and table cloth's, picture frames. The Vp products have been in the box for 15 years and now finally found a use for them. :good:

Thanks Mike and Hello again,

Wow, finally finished the Riich Models German Field Kitchen.The field kitchen is no easy feat to put together.The parts are very fine and for a field kitchen it was a complex build.
The figures have been positioned around the field kitchen for trial purpose to see if it will work to create the diorama scene.

A combination of Tamiya and Riich field kitchens and figures have been used to create the scene. The plastic figures from both manufacturers have excelled in figure detail.

The scenario is to try and make 2 separate diorama's come together on the 1 diorama base. The intention for the viewer to be captivated with a view on each side of the diorama base.
The brick wall is the separator between the 2 diorama ideas.
The figures without heads will be changed out with resin replacements.

The shed doors on the front have been painted in Humbrol blue and highlights have been made with Mig Ammo wood and dark wash.
So much to do so little time

Whatever you're cooking must be good, a couple of the guys lost their heads over it. :laugh:

Henry VIII stew?

Mike, (warning, obscure Mad Max reference) "you gotta go big".
Loving where this is going....I expect to see it at Expo next year. :D (this year maybe pushing it)
You have inspired me to tackle this beast, although not the whole thing.... Will be going down the Famo and towing frame route..
Pete
 
Thanks Guys for your comments.
It's a balancing act to get the diorama balanced and not overdone.
There may be some things omitted and there may be inclusions.

Peter,
Good news to hear our taking on the challenge, even without the trailer the Famo is a big build (y)

Bob,
You never know, if I can achieve the look of the diorama in scale and not overdone I will probably have a box built so it can travel.Peter mentioned next year for Melbourne Expo in June. It may well make the trip down there if I can get the right look. :hmmm
After some dwelling over the diorama here are the proposed items below. The diorama will have to be split into a separate build blog. There is way too much more in the diorama to keep in the Famo blog.
I think I took a page out of Bob's Logistics dio which has inspired me back to build diorama's (y)

Are you sitting down :eek:hmy: :blink :facepalm :pinch:
