Glen Tellls us about this diorama:

The base is Oak. and the rest is  polystyrene  and wall filler plus scatter, the same a I made The Crashed Spitfire diorama . Researched information from the web for signs. The model is an Airfix 1/72 kit A01323  , the fencing is Italeri 6141, the barrels are white metal.

The soldier on the gun is from airfix us marine A 1716 cut about ( arms etc to  reposition  holding this gun) only the driver comes with the kit.

 

In the back of the truck you can see a tarp. Glen has a tutorial showing us how to custom make that. How to make a tarp for dioramas
