New 1/16th figures!
Here is a couple of new figures from Trumpeter Models of WW2 Soviet tank personnel. Nice relaxed poses of a couple of smokers on break!
With a few mods to their clothing they could be used as mechanics or pilots from any era!

Hi guys! I thought that I would also post this here on the"How to..."thread .

Hi Stephen!Thanks for your encouragement but right now I have all I can handle with just finishing what I started.Like I said I would really like to condense the whole thing some day and just offer it here on the Aerodrome as a reference for those who want to attempt dioramas in the future.Things have changed so much over the years for hobbyists such as me.From working mostly in isolation to the internet has been a great leap forward.I am just happy to be able to offer my ideas to an interested audience. I am really quite surprised by the enthusiastic reception I have been given in view of the fact I work in multi-media, in an unpopular scale and (other than here)a small but ever growing area of modeling interest. Cheers! John.

November in Canada.
Here in Eastern Canada we usually get our first snow around Nov15.My diorama is depicting the afternoon of Rememberence Day(Nov11) in the 1920's.No frost or snow on the ground but lots of Fall colours.Some grassy areas can still be quite green this time of year but the bushes and brush etc.. will have taken on their Fall coloration by now.Most airports are pretty devoid of trees so I haven't even put any leaves on the ground.
Yellow ochre or oxide air sprayed over medium green gives a nice place to start.I use both acrylics and pastels together to get the effect that I want. This stuff does not come easy to me and I kind of learn as I go along.Maybe it is my lack of artists training that forces me to reinvent the wheel but then again it also makes it easier to break the rules!
