Nice project Hank! Thanks!

That’s a lovely piece of work Hank👌 Love the way that small square of beach has so much variation in both colour & textures. It’s hard to show some interesting terrain alone, without the need for a vehicle, figures or building, but just the raw groundwork, Nice video well done..👏😊

Pull a Call of Duty and put a discarded Arisaka rifle on it

Looks great. Love the multiple surf lines that help guide the eye up the beach.

A great one to go next to it would be Rommel back at home for his wife’s birthday wondering why they’re losing the war.

If I recall correctly the teller mines were a waste of resources as they didn’t like being immersed in salt water twice a day, so most if not all ended up being duds. The allies knew this as they had grabbed a couple during pre d-day scouting missions, so they didn’t even have a deterrent effect. The Chechz hedgehogs did find a later use, the allies cut them up to make the hedgerow cutters, nice of the Germans to provide the raw materials.

That Hank looks awesome, such a simple diorama base. Dragon make a set of US Army figures landing on beach, master box might as well. Either or would look great, or a german solder with a dog. Walking on the lonely beach, on patrol. Hey wait, i think I will do that. 😅 Great video thank you

@eclipsehorse8693 Месяц назад

the Tamiya German briefing figure set (four soldiers and a dog) would work well here-

@@bobrivett7645 Lovely molds on those figures, just need to repaint them a bit as they are in winter gear- but the poses are right :)

@sonicimperium Месяц назад

Well done, sir! 👍

@eclipsehorse8693 Месяц назад

Awesome work Hank! I just built up a couple little display bases for my tanks using a couple simple wooden plaque boards from Menards, some Modge Podge, and brown sugar! I let everything dry and hit it with a couple coats of green and brown, and sprinkled in a little cat litter for pebbles...oh what you can do with not a lot of money! Sometimes the base is a model in and of itself! :)

@szymeq-rr9pk Месяц назад

Truly amazing! Could you please make a full tutorial video on painting the Rado RDM35041 "Feuer Frei" figures now? I recently bought them and they will be the first figures I will ever paint, so such a tutorial would be very helpful. Thank you in advance!

@alisteraitken2149 Месяц назад

Good stuff Hank. A nice simple but highly effective diorama base.

@SpruesNBrews Месяц назад

Thank you!

@rickgregory9616 Месяц назад

Great tutorial. Be interesting to see what models / figures you place on your diorama!

Thanks!!

@dainiusltu5945 Месяц назад

Good diorama, reminded me ww2 movies and fallout. You ever been thinking about Fallout scale models?

@Chilly_Billy Месяц назад

Looks great, Hank. I've seen several D-Day dioramas that forgot the Teller mines mounted on the obstacles. Hmm....a certain teacher molded by Nuts Planet would look great in this diorama. 😉

Great job Hank, very realistic. Well worth doing this way, I love it. Also any update on when part 5 of H.E.A.T.S in coming out I'm hanging out there for it.
