Which material did you use for the building? I really like the concrete structure!

Thank you all! I made this building with what we call in France "carton-plume". which is a layer of foam between 2 layers of fine cardboard. You will find this in artist shop for sure.
the good thing with this material is that impacts are really realistic because of the hardness of the external layers.
You will see all the pics of the global building here :

You can almost smell the dust and feel the day's sun. 👍
Inspiring work Nicolas. 🙂
Stark, but full of 'atmosphere'. 👍

That's an eye catcher. At first I thought it was 1/35.
Well done, Nicolas. Congratulations

Yes, i spend a lot of time on documentation, to be the nearest to the reality.
For my actual project, i studied vegetation, geography, climate, uniforms, vehicles,…the kind of plane depending of the idea of diorama… 😄 a dummy modeler…

Your work in 1/72 is just brilliant and absolutely a treat for the eyes.👍👍👍 I wish I could do my dioramas in 1/35 half as good as yours in 1/72.

What do you all mean 1:35? With the right lighting and photography it would easily pass as 1:1! Incredible, never seen that density of detail in that scale. The figures seem so real!
