A special studio diorama deserves a new display format (our normal picture size in portrait mode).

SdKfz 7 with a scratch build Maybach engine. German soldiers resting for the next battle drinking Fanta cola! The Fanta drink originated as a cola substitute in Germany under a WW2 trade embargo for Coca-Cola ingredients in 1940.

All figures are from Rubicon Models. Most figures are released in either plastic or pewter, some are converted, and some are not yet released.

very nice . Love how animated some of the figures are . Still think you should re do your gas cans with proper handles though , as molded they really jump out  and detract from the scene . But that could just be me  ::)
