Tank meeting in Madrid, Spain

Post by Edumardo »

Hello friends,

On September 28th and 29th the inauguration of the "Butarken kamp" diorama for military vehicles in 1/16 scale will take place. It is located in Getafe, Madrid, and is part of the ASOGER RC club. During those days we will meet part of the Spanish community of RC tank fans, admission is free ;)

It is a little-known but very complete diorama, with different thematic areas such as Stalingrad or a village in Normandy, and others under construction. There are a lot of incredible historical buildings!

Your diorama is amazing. The nods to classics like "'Allo, Allo" and "Kelly's Heroes" are great.

The modellers who built those buildings/cobbled streets ..........were they movie/tv professionals and if not how many euros did those buildings and streets cost? The Tamiya JPIV/70's in the one video are the least expensive props :O

:haha: :haha: The diorama began to be built in 2018, and most of the buildings are the work of a single person, built with simple materials. As a curious note, the buildings are fixed, that is, they are not stored in any warehouse.

A new video showing the area set in the villgage of the movie "Kelly's Heroes"

Edumardo, thank you for all those videos. I am just recovering from a trip down the Danube, so I will watch them all with tired, happy eyes.

Amazing that one person did all those fantastic buildings. Weres some of them made from foam blocks. I'd like to try doing a building this winter
