Tuskegee Airmen Diorama
Greetings Everyone:
I have not built any type of diorama for anything but thought doing one might be fun. The aim with this project was to do a Tuskegee Airmen airfield season in an affordable and simple manner.
The diorama uses the Flight Wing "Easy" P-51 Mustang. I also used 21st figures painted to look like African Americans, PTE supplie stores and the 21st S1 U.S. Jeep.
Enjoy.
Corey

Fantastic work, there, Corey! It's a great setup and nice work on the grass and dirt roadway. I also really like the customized figures. "Blackfacing" them with the paint came out quite well and they really look the part

Re: Tuskegee Airmen Diorama
Again, your technique on the ground and dirt drive are as good as any pro modeler in any magazine. (And better than most)
The figures are great
