Small Afrika Korps Diorama in 1:35

[pianoforte]

In the meantime again a small military diorama in 1:35. Several thirsty soldiers of the Afrika Korps around 1941 on observation posts in the Libyan desert.
A dust plume on the horizon. Is it the expected supplies, is it the Italien allies.... or the English?
A conversion of the much too light Panzer 1 (tank 1) upgraded with a Czech 4,7 cm Pak (anti-tank gun) was intended to help in anti-tank operations.
The company commander came forward with his Kfz 15, mittlerer Einheits-Pkw, to get an idea of the situation.
The interesting thing was to give the dark gray painted tank a rather used up desert camouflage.

Very good weathering work - the vehicles are really looking "very used"
BTW: The guy drinking coffee -> he is looking very inteligent - or is the coffee too hot

That is excellent modeling. Great attention to detail.

I love dioramas. They are like a well written book that tells a story.

I’ve had this little diorama for many years.


It‘s not very impressive but it does give one cause to think.

It is very nice, I love it. It tells a little story. I have the same opinion as fourseas.

Very realistic diorama. Masterly built!

Excellent weathering in all of the vehicles.
I love the rusty look if the exhaust cover.
This is an award winning diorama.
Executed beautifully though and through .
