Hello guy's,

It's been a while since I posted anything in the modeling category, most of my stuff is off forum subject.

This is my big project... a 1/35 scale 2' x 2' Vietnam battle scene diorama, including "hopefully !" 2 x helicopters (OH-6 & Huey), 2 x M113 and about 20 figurines.

The landscape is build from scratch with pink hard foam board (Home depot).

the 2 helicopters are Revell Mfg , they are cheap but needs a lot of work to look half ok, since it's a big diorama, I didn't go crazy on details.

Any questions, feel free to ask, if you like something I did and need some info about it, I'll be more than happy to share.

Thanks

Will

That's the exact configuration of my APC in 4th Cav. If a photo of it was made without the paints, etc. the background, I'd swear it was a picture of an actual behicle. Great work!

Will, that looks great. The foliage and terrain is impressive its very natural looking. I like the Tiger stripes flight suits on the air crew, great paint job.

Thanks for the comments.

still working on the terrain, it is time consuming... 2x2 is kind of big !

just added a pic with a figure, i will not focus on sharp details regarding the figures, there will be too many at the end.

The foliage is not painted yet.

Thx

Will
