Thank you Es-haq, you are too kind. IPMS/USA Region IV has chosen the theme "Their Finest Hour" Battle of Britain 75th Anniversary. So with some additional work this will be my entry.

Thanks. Hope to get back to this one as I see potential in both a cleaner diorama but also with more arrangement of personnel. Suggestions always welcome.

I got 0 experience in making a diorama but what i should do is:
Make the concete look like plates and used .
Remove the stands from the figures. Use a wash on the figures and add a clear flat coat on them .
Do some weathering on the trucks and plane and put a flat or semigloss coat on it .
Add some exta detail like long dots of grass to the base. (have seen some people using the hairs of old or cheap brushes).
Hope its usefull🙂
Keep up the cool work Curtis

Wow! Very constructive and much appreciated. You have inspired me to do more and go further with this model than I would have otherwise. Thanks!
