    Iraqi dio - we need back up now

    Hi guys , Heres the story - a US M113A2 on a routine patrol in some back street Bagdad suburb and have a contact with a couple off Iraqi insurgents who are dealt with , upon moving up to the dead insurgents position realise they are going to be ambushed , further up the road theres massive enemy activity , with all cards played they have no choice but call in back up NOW .

    Its a bit graphic but hope you approve gents , still room for improvements but I can live with this one , tried a few new things - some worked some did not , another great learning curve .

    Cheers

    Richy

    First off Richy, what great use of the lighting.

    Graphic it might be, but that's how it is.

    I like the concept behind the diorama and you have presented it very well.

    Very well done on an excellent build.

    Cheers,

    Ron

        Hi Richy!

        I like so much the prudence of the diorama (5 soldiers 3 shots) was easy to create a very "violent" scene and it's not like that. The modification of the figures also is very nice.

        Brilliant.

        Regards

              What an excellent diorama- Graphic? I have seen much worse and yes on this forum!

              I can see no reason what so ever to remove it!

              Great figure work. I would also like to say that the blood and gore is also very well done. Believable and not OTT.

              Five stars from me!

                Now that's a diorama, i wouldn't call it graphic Andy. Look at it this way, a good few of us have built models of knocked out armour. You've gone one better and for that i take my hat off to ya mate. Five stars for sure.

                Have fun, John
