Austrian Kaiserjäger at the Lagazuoi

[HamilkarBarkas]

Hey guys!
This is my latest diorama with figures. It shows Austrian Kaiserjäger (huntsmen of the Emperor) at the Lagazuoi mountain 1915-1917) during the fights against the invading Italians.
The white metal figures are from Hecker & Goros and are superb! The faces may look a bit like the ones from a comic but i somehow like this style. They are easy to paint, too.
The machine gun and other equipment is from ICM´s Austro-Hungarian weapon and equipment" set in 1/35 scale. The difference is noticable for me but i think i can get away with it.
The diorama is based on a styrofoam plate which is reinforced with wood on the side. The surface is covered with modelling clay and rocks from my garden. The snow is from "rast deranauo" and again proofed to be my first choice when it comes to snow depiction on dioramas.






The trenches are still visible due to restoration and preservation.








Those two large piles of debris on the bottom of the mountain are from Austrian and Italian mines. Terrifying explosions.
