D-Day Diorama

I did this diorama for the D-Day celebrations in June 2004. The model vehicles are 1:48 or 1:50 scale and are Solido/Gaso.line conversions or Bandai kits or Verlinden models. If you don't know about these conversions the standard Solido models which are die-cast do not have very much detail or decent paint jobs so I improve them by taking the Gaso.line kits and modifying the Solido ones. I then give them an extra special paint job. Sean Maley
