Re: 1/48 WWII German AFV Diorama

Sounds like pretty good value for somebody less discerning mate...possibly younger modellers. Nice work.

Re: 1/48 WWII German AFV Diorama

So which part of the board will the Morser Karl and Dora models be going on ?

You may need two Storch's then. One for the inspector and one as a spotter for the railway gun.

Not to put too much on your plate but just while you are at it......

Re: 1/48 WWII German AFV Diorama

Just as I've said all the time! You DO need a Storch so all you've to do is give in. Or should I ask Nick to build an IL-2M that he can place over your diorama when you expect it the least?

Hey, I have seen a built model of the 'Dora' up close and in the flesh and I can tell you it wouldn't fit on the board by itself much less with all the other stuff.
(Its a real MONSTER.)


Cheers,

As promised here ia a picture of the BMW sprues and decals from my kit.



And here is the EXTRA stuff that came included with the motorcycle.


(The picture doesn't really show just how bad the jerry cans are, but you get a rough idea from it.)


Cheers,
Dave

One of those might be on the cards later mate...the weathering prospects are great. Especially with faded winter white-wash on an aircraft.

If by size you mean the dimentions of the base of the diorama?

Then the size of the base is 1210 mm x 880 mm / 48 inches x 34 1/2 inches
(Although now due to room re-organising, I could make it twice as big.)


Cheers,
Dave
