Description

The best dioramas tell a story.

While modelling and detailing individual figures or vehicles is a satisfying project in itself, placing the models in a realistic action setting provides a spectacular backdrop for your work. World War II - fought over a variety of terrain from the frozen Arctic to the heat and sand of the Western Desert, as well as through towns and cities and across forest and wilderness - allows an unlimited number of locations and tactical scenarios for dioramas.

In WWII Dioramas, the skills of incomparable diorama modellers are laid bare in a way that will be of immense value to the average model-maker. Composition, detailing, construction and painting - all the skills of the model-maker's art are shown off in two brilliant dioramas: an urban scene in a war-torn town that combines work on buildings - exteriors and interiors - with figures, and a vivid tank action in the Bocage country of Normandy that focuses on realistic portrayals of men and vehicles in scenery.
