First WW2 German Diorama [Complete]

[timtamtung]

Hi guys,

I came up with this great diorama idea and hope it works out well.
Many firsts here: Will be my first diorama, my first time painting figures, first time working with resin.

Diorama will be a simple scene but i hope to make it striking to look at. A group of german soldiers walking behind the BMW r75 sidecar through the street.

Side car painted. Just waiting on my fuel stain and light dust products...

[timtamtung]

Im so pleased with myself on these figures. My first attempt and i love drybrushing!!!

[trekfanj]

Great job so far! Keep it up!

[AchtungPanzer]

Very nice. I look forward to more

[gustavlekstal]

Doing great. Tnx for sharing.

[timtamtung]

Thanks for the support. Will update more soon

Bike and figures are looking really nice.

I built the BMW kit around 20 years ago, and bought one for my stash when I got back into the hobby earlier this year. Viewing your progress on this makes me want to start on mine.

I used that very same base once myself years ago and it's a wonderful piece. Nice work on the details on those figures. That old kit is always a nice one for trying out your firsts. Well chosen.
Should be an interesting piece.

Doing a great job so far Tungy! Looking forward to it all coming together in the street diorama!

I've painted about 120 figures and these are better than the ones I've done

[APC227]

Looks great so far!

[timtamtung]

Thanks all... For those who have done this kit, can I ask about the decals? How are they as they are from the year 1609 they look mighty thick and I'm scared about their clear transfers standing out on the model

[timtamtung]

The diorama base all cleaned, fitted, assembled and ready for priming + painting...

What can I say, I kinda do like working with these resin bases! Just give resin a-lot of respect when working with them.

[Coen]

Oh wow that's a gorgeous piece!! Beautiful!

[HWGuderian23]

Beautifully moulded base ... looking damn good! Can't wait to see some paint on it ...

[panzerman]

The figures and motorcycle turned out great. Looking forward to seeing it all come together.
Enjoy Brother.

Quick update : Just finished applying the acrylic paint and highlights on the stone walls and gate. Took ages to paint by hand

[timtamtung]

50 shades of Grey

[MarkVerploeg]

Is that the "50 shades of grey" modellers edition
The gate looks great so far
I never worked with the resin bases from verlinden
Altough i do have 2 buildings and i think they are good
But like you say it takes ages to paint all the stones by hand altough it pays off in the end
keep up the good work

[timtamtung]

Ok so I've finally finished the base. Photo's are just from my fone.
I will take proper pictures when I place the figures in

[Tiger131]

Superb looking base love the battle damage look..can't wait to see more

[Coen]

Jeez Tungy!!! That's awesome work!!!
excellent blending of those features.

[timtamtung]

Greatly appreciated Coen & Tiger. Even I am a bit surprised myself of how it turned out!

[MikeyKb]
