Your figures have great intensity and really show the urgency of the situation. The whole situation shows how desperately infantry needed weapons to take on tanks.

Hi, yep. Something went very wrong. My picture hostingsite crashed. Well, so be it, sh*t happens. Since there aren't many comments to my work I won't dig the old stuf up and post it all over again. Perhaps new projects as soon as I find a better way to host my pictures. And, there's always my website for those who are interested.

I would post it again when you have it all sorted out. The comments on here are usually way behind the number of views you get. No worries buddy !

Hans I've visited your website and greatly appreciate not only your completed dioramas, because these show some very fine skills, but also the very broad range of subject matter.
I have a diorama bucket list, if you will, and something that's right up there at the top of the list is a small dio on the Holocaust. And I will say you've done a fine job indeed.
Thanks for sharing your work
Sincerely
Dave

Thanks Dave.
I'll see if I can post some pictures using my own site as a host.
As for the holocaust dio, the biggest problem is to create a scene that is doing justice to the horrors without making it distastfull. When you do a 1/35 holocaust search on google you'll find examples of both...
There's one small vignette with a prisoner pushing a small handcar and some fence behind him.
Great impact!

Yess I know this scene! Very well done. Never done anything w/ trains n tracks in this scale myself.
I ended up, after searching Holocaust dios, finding and looking thru what is simply known as Holocaust Art. These various pcs, mostly drawings and small paintings, are worth reviewing as I believe they're done by survivors. Amazing...
Sincerely
Dave
