Small Scale Military Headquarters

Hi All:

It's been a little while since I've posted here but I've been slowly getting away from the 1:18 scale military to pursue interests in 1:32. I must admit that the smaller scale is a lot easier to work with, especially with limited space, and the availability and variety of 1:32 items.

I've been slowly creating a tabletop battle with a variety of Marx recasts, Ultimate Soldier, and W. Britains inspired by Marx playsets I had as a kid. Thought I'd share a few B&W shots of the small diorama:


French Farmhouse


Sherman Firefly (pictured with American Infantry for joint ops - oddly, because I have more Brits than Americans)


Farmhouse Defense


Halftrack


Opel Blitz with Pak 40 (one of my personal favorites)


Last Stand (I really like this one - perhaps it's the angle)

Comments welcome.

EDIT: Moderators: please excuse this post here if it belongs in the Customs & Mods forum. Feel free to move if more appropriate.

very cool

I like the b&w photos. Gives it an older look.
Nice job.

Karl, this is an awesome use of Britains Super Deetail toy soldiers!

Takes me right back to my childhood.

It used to be a huge range, but you cant get the mortar teams etc any more...

Thanks for the feedback guys.

Oh yes, the mortor sets are really nice. It would be awesome to see these still produced (as well as the jeep and Kubelwagen). It's difficult to find any of the older sets at a reasonable price these days.

Here's a few additional shots:
