Default "Brothers in Arms" Diorama

Note this isn't based on the game, just the only appropriate name I could think of!

US Willy's Jeep, Sherman and British patrol, all Tamiya 1/35.

Looks cool. My I make two suggestions? See if your camera can switch to macro for the close up shots. I would also suggest a flat clear coat spray to remove the shiny and it will also protect your work.

Cheers. My cam does indeed have a close up mode, completely forgot about that lol. And yeah I think I will the vehicles and figures a coat of matt varnish, though the ground is supposed to be glossy in places, as if it's muddy.

Very nice, I've always fancied getting some of the Flames of War miniatures myself, they look good, bit pricey though.

Looks good. I especially like the plate on the front of the jeep.
