Eastern Front - micro diorama in the walnut

As in previous years, this year I will try to glue another micro diorama in a walnut. The competition was organized by minimodel.cz, but in recent years it has not been announced.
I will try to continue. The essence of this competition was to glue a model of any technique and place it in a walnut shell so that it could be completely closed. I stayed with the military theme, but this time I will try to process something from the Eastern Front. So it will be a clash of German and Russian technology, I'll see what happens ...

Past walnuts:



...walnut 2017:

The Farm (1:150)


...walnut 2018:

First Aid - micro diorama in the walnut (1: 200)


...walnut 2019:

Ford GPA - micro diorama in the walnut (1: 150)


...walnut 2020:

Afrikakorps - micro diorama in the walnut (1: 200)

First I managed to glue Sd.Kfz. 222 Ausf. B from R&P Models. The original is at 1:87, I reduced it to 1: 200, it has more than 100 parts, which was no longer very pastable for me at 1: 200, so I simplified where possible, but it's still for me on the edge of stickability...
Just like last year for walnut, I prepared a stem from the cup, I will still glue the base as in previous years.

A few photos of the current state:

I cannot imagine how you do what you do. I would not be able to cut the parts out. I once built a Tucker automobile in 1:100 that had less than 2 dozen parts (and 12 of those were the wheels) and struggled with that assembly. I raise my glass to you, sir. You are the Master of the Microscopic!!!

...thank you, but it's not such a miracle ... it's hard to do, I already have worse eyesight, so I use glasses and a magnifying glass ... I simplify where possible, because something can no longer be glued due to the thickness of the paper (I have it printed on 120g / m2)...

It must be magic - you see the result, but you can't see how it's done !!
