Small Scale Military Headquarters

Hey yall!!! With the 65th anniversary of D-DAY just a few weeks away---I thought it would be fun to celebrate it with makeing a few dios of what happend on that day of days!!!This is no contest or anything---just a fun way to remember the MEN who fought and died(on both sides) 65 years ago!!!The dios must be historically accurate for D-DAY ,as many pics as you want ,and anything goes---customs,photo shop,ect!!! So if yall want to do a German dio thats cool as long as its with the accuracy of D-DAY!!! Yalls dios can be 1 or 2 pics or it can be 9 or 10 that tell a story---its up to you!!! All pics should be posted on 6-5-09!!! I hope to have a big turn out for is and I hope yall think this is a good ideal!!!LMK ---RED---

IN

I'm in, I'm just waiting on a few key pieces from Marauder.

Sweet!!!If this goes pretty good I might set up a dio contest this summer!!! ---RED---

Can we post pics now? I've got a couple dio photos that I've already taken that may work just fine for this. They're nothing huge or amazing, but should be just fine for the purposes of this thread

Hey RED great idea! I'm in.
can't wait to see your pics Tman, I'm sure Red will give the order to fire at will.

Hey yall!!! I was thinking of haveing all pics posted on June 5th---so to give everyone time to work on a dio but if you already have some pics---fire away!!!---RED---

could i replicate a few battles that took place d-day and a few days after.

Sure!!!---RED---

here's one of mine

i kinda tried to blur them on purpose to make them look a little more night time...ish

June 5th Normandy drops

Looks good any more?????

I think this gets to the heart of what Memorial Day really means.



I'd like to think this is somewhere in the Hürtgen forest.

Perfect!!!!!!!!!!!

Here's a few of mine that I had on file. The pictures use 1:18 or 1:32 scale figures and vehicles, with the top picture being the only one specifically intended to depict an event on D-Day. Nothing too fancy or over-the-top, but they should work just fine for the purpose of this thread

Enjoy

Very cool tmanthegreat.
