Hi Peter
Those are excellent. Quite amazing considering the scale.

Steve - the first one, the one with the Stug is fictional, but the other two are based on parts of a Victorian fort which the germans added some AA guns, here is a photo of the ara now, the two area i modelled are circled, along with a very poor WW2 photo showing the weapons in place.

Cool. I’ve always liked very small-scale, small dioramas (having built a couple myself), and these look really good.

they are surprisingly fun, next on my list is one featuring a Scammel transporter with a Stug as its load.

Peter,
They look excellent mate.

Excellent stuff Peter. They are jewel like in appearance and execunion. I know there are a few manufacturers in this scale, which one are these?

That brings back memories.....I briefly dabbled with 1/300 wargaming on my youth.... So not that far off from these!!

Well done.
