Brian Dentino Posted July 20, 2009 Share #26 Posted July 20, 2009 I have to agree with everyone who has posted here and say that this is a fantastic and great looking shadow box. One of the coolest that I have ever seen. Thanks so much for sharing your talents with all of us "enviously not-so-talented" people! Super job, and a really, really great original item!

Panzer 3 Posted January 25, 2010 Share #36 Posted January 25, 2010 Hi, Very nice diarama it reminds me of the picture in St,Marie Du Mont in Normandy, there is a war memorial in the village today that the U.S, airborne stood in front of and had the pic taken. It is the same now as then, We stood on the same spot, Your model is just right for that senario. Well done. dave. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cottonbalers Posted January 25, 2010 Share #37 Posted January 25, 2010 Hello, Very good work!!! But if I can say: first aid was not fixed to helmets in Normandy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Panzer 3 Posted January 25, 2010 Share #38 Posted January 25, 2010 Hi cottonbaler, the model is in great shape, and when in combat rules of dress dont come into it. If you look at archive pics you will see lots of things not regulation, when i was in British army we had and still have codes of dress. But first aid dressings were worn on webbing, we carried our own knives ect. and cammed in our own way. Soldiers even painted there helmets to serve the situation. Dave.

Cottonbalers Posted January 26, 2010 Share #39 Posted January 26, 2010 Hello, Completely all right, but on the photos of archives, not "first aid" on helmets in Normandy. We begin to see it in Holland... Pic in Normandy, Third gi to the right, in the ankle... Pic in Hollande... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
willysmb44 Posted January 27, 2010 Share #40 Posted January 27, 2010 You’ve given me inspiration to make a shadow box in a larger scale. I am slowly building a 1/6 scale War Correspondent figure, getting items slowly over time to get the figure to represent exactly what I was looking for, but I have wondered how I was going to display it. I now know I’ll do it along the line of this, with a vertical format shadow box with either a wall or tree/fence right behind the figure and scattered brass and other debris at the feet of the figure… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Marine Posted January 27, 2010 Author Share #41 Posted January 27, 2010 That should look great in 1/6 scale, you can really go in to the details. I look forward to seeing it. Dennis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
