Small Scale Military Headquarters

Hi All, Merry Christmas & Holiday Greetings from the Western US. I thought I'd share some images of my 1/32 scale Ultimate Soldier/21st Century and Forces of Valor (FoV) collection pictured with a Berlin backdrop.

Comments welcome.

This is awesome! Sense it's a blizzard today, i think this gives me some ideas!

US Soldiers never fought in Berlin, only the Russians. The US came into Berlin only after the war had ended. 21c made some excellent 32x Russian soldiers that you should be able to track down in eBay... Would enhance the accuracy of the dio.

That said, I like the Kubelwagen and Marder pics, though I think the early Marders were largely out of service by 1945. They could work equally well for a "Stalingrad" picture.

Like a story board for a movie. Could be anywhere in Europe.
For a second I thought it was 1:18.
Earlier I was just thinking about all the 1:32 playsets I have stashed in the garage today, makes me want to pull them out.
Very nicely done, thanks for sharing.

Thanks all for the feedback. These vehicles and scenes are part of a larger diorama - more along the French countryside with farm house, bridge, and small river. I had taken a few vehicles out of the scene to photograph them in a more city-like setting. Stumbled upon the Berlin picture above. Got a little history lesson re. US forces in Berlin as a result, so the one picture with the Germans firing at the American is not too historically accurate as Tman mentioned above (just consider another city I suppose).

Here's one more image that I particularly like with weather effect:



Thanks again,
