I think you nailed the figure's positions just as they should be. overall 2 thumbs up I give extra points for the diorama part love that work as well. nice muddy tracks and hedgerow cutter

Looks great.

As Dan said, the muddy tracks look the part. However ( that most hated word next to 'BUT'), I think you need to add fine thread to tie down your stowage. Judging by your stowage rails on the turret this should be easy enough for you. It just adds a sense of reality to a model.(I've never served in the military, 'however', I can imagine wanting to find my tent and rations where I put them before the driving started! )

Well done,

Matt

Yep, looks brilliant. Only thing I'd b*tt in with is to put some of the same pigment on the boots and knees of the soldiers, just to tie them in with the scenery.

Hi Caleb,

Great diorama!!!

Just to echo Matt, I'd add some string to tie down the stowage. I think you want something to hold that jerry can on the front down, too.

Thanks for looking. What do some of you use for tie downs? I tried using some fine lead wire but couldnt get it to work very well.

The scene is looking good and I like the infantry positions. I used "Glide" Dental Floss on my Grief halftrack for that "strap" look. I'm no expert so test it yourself
