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.























Enjoy!

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  ::)
