Sorry for the late post...
Excellent pictures Edumardo! I spent several minutes on each picture (yes, no wife or kids to interrupt me)!

Hi friends, thanks for your kind words! Here’s a video showing the latest addition to the diorama: the church tower of Sainte-Mère-Église, complete with a paratrooper

Then, too, whenever I check your other YouTube videos, I wish I could go play in Spain and see this great model scenery.

Good morning friends,
In the following video, Our colleague Quique, one of the main builders, tells us about his last construction that he has added to the diorama, the Hotel Hartenstein, the HQ of 1st Airborne Division during the Battle of Arnhem.

Edumardo, I would be so thrilled to be able to visit Butarque, stay a night at the Parisien, another at the Hotel Hartenstein and eat lunch outdoors at the Café René. Do these places have web sites for reservations? Do they take play money?

(That's all I have now.

Those buildings are just stunning. Even more amazing is just how many of them there are. Most fields would be lucky to have one

One of the main builders, Quique, uses common materials such as extruded polystyrene foam boards, plastic boards, acrylic paints and varnishes. With his permission I leave you his Facebook profile where he has photos of the diorama from 2018 to the present, I hope you find them useful to get ideas and see the materials used, the construction process, etc.

I'm afraid they don't have any, but if you go one day, I'm sure someone can invite you for a
caña.
