Sd.Kfz. 250/1 NEU in a small diorama
« on: May 08, 2020, 04:53:40 pm »
Hello,
I always liked the appearance of the sdkfz 250 halftrack, with it´s simplified shape. So I decided to do a vignette in 1/56 scale. The Building is from Blackdog miniatures, it fits perfect into any common picture frame 10x15cm (common in countries with metric system)  :)

This was a fun project, and it took me just a week to finish it.

Regards from sunny (but too dry) Bavaria

It all looks very nice, and good photography.
This only took you a week to finish? Fast work.

P.S. Your five RM German infantry figures look very nice. Only five more to paint for a squad (not counting the two chaps in the half-track). Will this be a permanent 1/56 scale vignette? Or will the models eventually see some tabletop action?

Wow ! That looks great . At first glance I thought they were 1/35 scale models

you forgot the third chap inside the halftrack. It has also a driver figure.  :) This is a permanent diorama and the figs are glued to the ground. No wargaming intentions.  :)
