Berlin liberated! 

 I've made a tableau vivant of Soviet " liberators " having a street party in the ruins of Berlin, maybe a few days after the armistice. The figurines used in this diorama are a pot-pourri of brands (Dragon, Vermeulen, Tamyia, a.o. )

Siege of Alesia

One of the crucial moments in  Caesars campaign in Gaul: the tenacious defense by the Roman Legion of the siege works around Alesia against a massive Celtic relief force.

The figurines are a mix of Italeri and HAT and the fence pallisade is from branches out of my garden, sharpened with a pencil sharpener. I used cocktail sticks to make look the Roman defense line more impressive and handpainted the regimental flag.

Blitzkrieg 1939 - SD KFZ.222 - 1/35 scale

The inspiration to decorate the vehicle with a flag, comes from this picture. This is clearly a scene out of the earlier stages of WWII, because, at that time,  Germans were much more afraid to get shot by their own aircraft than by the enemy...

The model is build straight out of the box (minus the paper flag - printed of the internet) by TAMYIA. 

Wear and tear is suggested by smears of paint and scratches made with a simple graphite pencil !
