Brilliant yet simple diorama! The build, paint and all detail is great. I love it when such gut wrenching action can be shown in such small dio. And of course, it helps that the Ju87 is one of my favorite a/c.

Cheers,
C.

Once more no info on the kit or the build techniques, just a bunch of WIKI-stuff on the type.
Short search shows this wonderful dio was initially constructed for Hamamatsu Diorama Factory GP in June 2013. The base kit was one of the Hasegawa 1/32 Ju-87 Stukas.
Would have loved to know how the prop was spun, how the dust clouds were formed, damage simulated, painting/weathering techniques etc, etc…
