"The Devil´s General" diorama

by Michael Rieß



I was in the mood to build a diorama again. For this project i used the quite new Opel Admiral mod.1937 kit from ICM, a BMW R12 kit from Zvezda and the German Staff figures from Dragon. All kits are very nice and i can recommend them to everyone. All models and figures are painted with acrylic paints from Revell and Lifecolor.

The diorama shows a German General observing the operations of his troops in Russia, 1941.

Shallow crossing - Diorama of the Day

by Kasper Fischer

One of my favourite blogs is MasterModels by Apoloniusz Musialek. He is a Polish model builder living in London, UK. He has recently won the AK Interactive weathering competition on Facebook and have really inspired me over the last year.

This Opel Olympia diorama is set in 1/35th scale and is called "Shallow Crossing" and once again I really love the way he used the water effect. This is not the model he entered in the AK contest though but I'm sure it can be found on his blog.
