1/35 German WW2 Steyr Type 1500A Afrika Korps diorama

Some updates. First time using hot wire foam cutter. It turns out OK for setting up the base. Applied AK diorama paste on top.

Made the first mistake when using spray can - the paint or the agent reacts and corrodes any exposed foam surface. Had to reapply paste for the 2nd time to fix. Painting is quite straightforward, just Tamiya acrylic paint with airbrush.

Next step will be weathering.

Are the figures of Indiana Jones and his dad next?

Your reference picture shows the Erechteion on the Acropolis in Athens.

Wow that looks superrealistic and lively ! Excellent modeling ! The only question that comes to me is - how did this Steyr manage to sink two subchasers and 10.600 tons of enemy shipping - in the african desert..... 🙂 No offence ! 🙂

it looks great. fantastic details. Interesting to use copies of the Caryatids as statues (as normal Caryatids they are quite over dimensioned, and the Afrika Korps was never in Athens, I think 😉 ) fantastic dio.
