Somebody, after all, had to make a start. What we wrote and said is also believed by many others. They just don't dare express themselves as we did. Quote - Sophie Scholl - White Rose resistance group -

Yes, is almost finish indeed
.
Some members have ask me on why I chose the 1/18 scale for this diorama(and the panther one) and not the standard 1/16 scale, the answer is simple, the future owner of this work chose this scale.
There is a LOT more time in fabrication/scrachtbuilding work involved, practicaly everything has to be fabricated or heavily modified since the "models" started as toys/ready to display pieces and the figures....well, they leave a lot to be desired from "the box", filling all the joints, repositioning them in better poses and painting them or just making the entire uniform in epoxy putty is a project in itself....and quite a pain!!!!
This is the reason why this is my last diorama work in this scale, no more....no matter what!!!! The time it takes to do one of these is just to much and also you have limits on the type of armor and softskins you can use/have available(I had to fabricate the Jagdpanther for this reason).....and the final price tag of the work will be very high taking in consideration all this.
From now on my big scale works will be 1/16 scale for the bigest and the standard scale 1/35 military miniatures.
Now, my next diorama will be on the Eastern Front in 1/16 scale, it will include the magnificent Trumpeter Co. Russian T-34/76,german infantry and other goodies, the only thing I need and can't find is the Tamiya TIGER 1 "static display" kit, if some one has one and what to sell it, please let me know your asking price.
Again thanks for the nice comments about this diorama work, it is really appreciated, it have been a LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONG TRIP but is almost over
