The flank attack..........28mm WWII diorama (pic heavy)

Hi,
a little story tonight.

Some where in north western europe a German gunner is keeping the allied troops at bay.

But his fellow grenadier to alert him to another problem.

coming round the corner

This is my entry to the painting comp on the Bolt Action miniatures site, all figures by them. The rules were a scene with an LMG team and a max of 3 figures. This is my first attempt at a pure diorama rather than a wargames piece on a nice base like my 88. Also my first go at an urban scene. Not sure about the brick colour, trying to go for a red brick colour.

So, hope you enjoyed the story and happy for any feedback, good or bad.

HI Gazza

very nice and inventive diarama I liked the way you photographed it revealing a little each time (Like an onion) :cry:

The bricks seen from the last picture look good where as some of the others look like you've been a bit heavy on the lighter colour, also perhaps only covering exposed edges and using a slightly different colour again for the mortar would also work better (But then who am I to say) it still looks very good :lol:

Hi,
thanks for the comment. My first go at something like this. I know what you mean about the bricks could use a bit more work.
