As predominately a modern armour modeller I thought I'd have a go at making a diorama inspired by the film The Hurt Locker. Love it or loath it, there is no doubt that the film was a critical success winning Oscars for Best Picture and Best Director at the 82nd Academy Awards. If you are unaware of the film, it depicts the experiences of a three-man EOD team serving in Iraq and though it was somewhat mauled by some US service personnel regarding its accuracy I found it both entertaining and thought provoking.
In this diorama I want to represent a fictitious scene showing a three or four man EOD team preparing to investigate a possible IED. The dio will show their equipment with interested locals looking on. I have to admit I've been planning this for a while and I think I now have most of the bits and pieces I need.
The base will be built on Diorama Plus' "Iraqi street scene" (kit DP18\). This is not a bad base though I'll be adding to it as I feel necessary, with the base itself being dressed up with as much detritus as I think is needed. If you see pictures of Iraqi streets you will see a lot of rubbish around, so there will be flattened boxes, black bin bags, spare tire, wooden crates, etc.
As well as the busy street, I'm going to add a number of vehicles. The main focus, vehicle wise, will be Bronco's "M1114 Up-Armoured Tactical Vehicle" (kit 35080), detailed with a number of ET Models extras. This will be joined by a civilian vehicle, either MiniMan Factory's "UAZ-452D Civilian Version" (kit MMF 35012) or AeroPlast's VW Beetle Type 60 (kit 90024) and maybe one of the Diopark's mopeds (kit DIO-35007). I'll also be adding AFV Club's "EOD Robot" (kit 35010).
