Those are truly sensational dioramas! Are they in 1/16th scale?
No matter, if you can apply the same matchless skills to 3d modelling in 1/16, we will all be in for some eye-catching treats, and things to emulate!. Your German light looks like an impressive start
I have a 3D printer, and- (guiltily he admits..) after three years I haven't so much as switched it on yet.

One of these days...
keep up the inspiring work, and continue to use the 'downtime' productively!

Well alright 65 and now with one stroke of a computer key PalePainter has managed to raise it to 86
Due to the Covid 19 virus you do understand that the British Prime Minister has decreed that all new visitors have to go into two weeks quarantine don't you?
Welcome back my hero we have missed your skills

Lol. Thank you kind sir. Always happy to help ruin a curve. I’ll take another two weeks. I haven’t stopped working the entire time. Which is a good thing. These little 1/35 scale tanks helped me keep my sanity. How are things over seas. The military modeling and diorama building is quite busy that way.

The closest I have come to a Diorama is a Tunisian Campaign Tiger 1 with a FeldPolizei Motorcyclist talking to a Tiger 1 Gunner who is leaning against a 200 litre fuel drum.
Although in truth I cannot imagine any serviceman in any Army leaning against anything when in the presence of a Military Policeman

Thank you. My experience with the 3D printer is superseded by years of designing with 3 d programs. It has made the adventure a bit easier initially. But I find myself tweaking the printing process and is the biggest learning curve at this time.
