I finished this little diorama today. It certainly wasn't a shake and bake dio. The water gave some challenges. I first tried AK one component water, but that dried up all milky and cracked up. It was easily pried off. The second try was with a 2 component resin. Much better, but it crawled up at the edges of the provisional wall. I found out after it dried up completely, so I had to pull out the dremel to grind it away.
I topped it up with acrylic water paste, to give structure. Oh, and I used real stones for the river bed.
The splinter camouflage was also a first. I am very satisfied with the results. A pity that you don't see much of the driver.

The half track had it's own challenges. No decals for the dials, the tires miss the lettering l, so I replaced them. The decals fought me all the way. Even after glossing they silvered all the way... Well, I guess I have to deal with it. I hope you like it too!

Cheers fellas! James, the detailing of the interior is, except for the added map, all out of the box.
