Eastern Front - micro diorama in the walnut

[MOD]

Come on! That's just not fair. Just when I thought I understood the limits of the craft, you go and do this... Astonishing! Really nice work.

Thanx

I proceed slowly ... I glued and sprayed the pedestal, carved and sprayed the inscription and added hinges on walnut. So far, I still have it detachable, because now I'm going to do it separately with each half of the shell.:

Then that's how you did it: you crossed a walnut tree with the model template... (I like to joke, mine is healthy envy ).

I glued the opponent for Sd.Kfz. 222. Finding some Russian equipment in a minibox scale is not like that simple... but I managed to find a T-34 from Rawen in 1: 100. So I reduced it to 1: 200. I had to shorten it to fit in the walnut, the back side (actually the whole tank) will be hidden in the vegetation, so it will not matter ...

I found some free space in the walnut, so I glued the Zundap KS750 motorcycle from R&P Models.This is a bit extreme because the original is at 1:87 and after reducing to 1: 200 it was quite small ...When I took the photo, I stuck it on my nail, because if I sneezed I probably wouldn't find it anymore ...

That is crazy good!

ZAX,

Let me see if I have this correctly centered in my mind. You built an armored car to put in a Walnut shell. Then you built a medium tank to put in the same shell. Then you found some empty space in the same shell that needed filling, so you built a motorcycle to fill the space. I now believe in MAGIC, because you are truly a leader in that art! Magical work! I can't wait to see what your next project will deliver.
