You know Mark,
That program is fun!! In fact, I have to watch it as it is addictive and I waste too much time on it!

It's a blast Son!!!
It's a fantastic tool! I would prefer to take the dioramas outside and photograph them in natural light and background, but, as they weigh as much as 300 pounds, I simply can't anymore! Right after I posted this, a guy emailed me and gave me information about other programs that will also come in handy. I'm gonna check them out as well.
BTW, this one is called Inpixeo. If anybody is interested just google that name.

I'll have to check that out. I do have so many models to add a background to.

Wow Bob,
I had to go back and re-read this thread it's a lot of man hours including the photo shopping work because that is a challenge within itself and many hours learning foregrounds and backgrounds...ahh the joys of photoshop.
Excellent work.

That's pretty cool. What program is it?
This fifth Sherman in the column is nearly finished. The painting, weathering and detailing is almost there, I just have to take a break and paint the 10 figure crew and tank riders before I wrap up assembly and call it finished. Then on to number 6. This will be one of two out of the eight Shermans that I used decals for the tank art. The rest I painted by hand. I was originally going to paint a Daffy Duck on the side of the chassis but, due to the contrast in Daffy's black body and this dark olive drab, plus I think three tanks with cartoon tank art in this column is enough. I went with a decal from my parts box for this one!
I used the ARV workable T-66 metal Track links. The one piece plastic T-66 steel tracks are very poorly simulated. I won't be using any of them on the next three as well. Two of the other three still to go has HVSS suspension. I'll use The T-80 track links on them. The other one has the VVSS suspension.
And a shot from the ground.
Here are some of the details that will be attached as soon as the Crew and tank riders are painted.
A little closer.
Up close of the .50 cal. Turret mounted MG.
The two external machine guns and antennae blown up to about three times actual size.
The Crew
The tank riders.
These two will be bartering over a cash difference in a trade of a Nazi Flag and a German General's overcoat. Sorry about the out of focus photo.
Thanks for looking in!

Still looking good Bob! I do want to come up sometime soon and get a look-see before you put the cover on Logistics.

Thanks Paul,
You know you're welcome anytime, but, I don't think there's a need to rush. I'm making headway, and I would estimate it is 90% finished, but, that other 10% is not gonna happen overnight! You can bet the farm on that!
I keep wondering what it will be like to build another diorama. One thing is for certain, it isn't gonna be anything this size!
