A horrid war with millions of diorama possibilities!!

This is only a test. The diorama is in building process.
About the WWI, is very interesting subject for modeling, despite the most modelers prefer the WWII. For me is quite interesting.

WWII is a war that scares me, as the death was so high, and the lines so fuzzy. I guess that is why WWII started, the whole conflict, is still unresolved, in reality.

Same here, as well as pre-WW1. as far as vehicles, aircraft and the like...
Like your Zis-5 by the way, Just one of the models I am "Going to build". During the evening, I made some sketches of a Zis-8 Transport Bus on a Zis-5 Frame, another "Going to Build" but in this case..scratch built!

Fantastic, superb, informative. I like that you are showing more construction technique. I would love to see a complete build thread. It would be so informative.

 

[Xavier]

Thanks guys. !!
I want to try to make some pictures to made something like a small tutorial. But is not easy, I do not make too much pics during the building process.

Images of the work done yesterday.

I'm gonna try to do a linear post of this diorama. But, this could be a little difficult, because I do not made pictures from the start.

Honestly, this level of quality puts you in a class that is far above anything I will reach. It's Art, it's History, It's Real, it's Fantastic.

I would love it if ou could do a build thread, even on something small. I think many here hunger for such a thread, especially a Master Builder such as yourself.
