Actually its my diorama and not kriegs.

Also for the Spitfire line-up to be a german fighter pilot's dream they would have to be within range of the german aircraft first.
(This airfield could be defending London but be based further north and out of range from attack itself.)

When I built it I didn't go for 100% historical accuracy, only a representation of a british WWII airfield.


Cheers,
Dave

Re: My 1/72 Hangar & Airfield Diorama

This is such an unbelievable great dio mate. I love it!

So Dave....what I'd love to ask of you is, how about sharing some specifics of how you put the diorama elements together? The closest thing to a diorama I ever built was for a model railroad layout in my basement years (and a couple houses) ago, and it was basic (to be self kind). I really really really would love to hear the nitty gritty of your techniques and materials used. Whatchya say, big boy???? Please, please?????
