Final Reveal Photos

So here are my final reveal photos for my WW2 group build entry, I hope you have all enjoyed watching how my build has came together over the last 3 months as much as I did building it. I learnt some new techniques myself and I hope I have helped and learnt some of you fellow modellers too aslong the way!





































Thanks for all your kind words in my build log too!

Wow! Looks great Dan! Great weathering and I really like the use of real wood. Looks really.....real, lol.

Absolutely stunning mate! I love the mud effect - if I steal that idea does that make me a tea leaf?!?! (for all you non-English folk Google Cockney rhyming slang.) I wish I'd seen your completed model before I started my dio base, I would have done a lot of things different.

Again with the great looking dio! What is it with you armor boys??? Seriously though, great work on this. Love how the old Matchbox half track came out, I remember building one of those when I was in my teens!

Top job mate! I bet a few of us will be 'borrowing' the train track dio idea!!

Fantastic diorama. The Sherman and Flak Halftrack look terrific. Nicely done ground work and composition of the scene. Also like the way you embedded the vehicles into the ground....makes a very realistic effect.
