New diorama pictures …

„The morning before battle“

It is the morning of 27 February 1991. The 1st Marine Division is preparing for the battle for Kuwait International Airport.

You can feel the nervousness. But the work is progressing without hesitation. The M60A1 tanks are refueled and in ammunition. Everyone is ready!

At the end of this day, they will have participated in the largest and fastest tank battle in the history of the United States Marine Corps. The 1st Marine Division write history that day.

On 28 February 1991, the Persian Gulf War ends.


Have fun. :-D

Very nice once again.

Could it be that the crew are a little bit lazy with the tank ammo ?

I like the sheep most.
They look so intelligent.

It couldn't be otherwise, Hellboy. I love specially the perfectionist finish of the diorama, something we share. ;-)

Best regards, mate. :yeah:
