Whoa... another impressive Diorama. What scale is that? Any idea? It looks like 1/35 to me.. They even got parachutes falling from the sky!

This is another impressive diorama!

here is the link to more of the parachute mission picture.
Spiriteye, the photos you are linking to have an article in this page.

I agree this dio is humungus and was awestruck by it the first time I saw it. However, after looking at the close up photos, realised that it's more like a wargame kind of diorama, which I don't really dig. It's not very realistic after all. The figures and trees are on stands and the detailing is not that good. In terms of size, it's amazing.

I think these people are all full time diorama modellers. Otherwise where would they have the time to complete such huge dioramas??

SpiritsEye.. that Diorama you posted is just too darn pro! Wonder if the builder got the idea in his dreams or he saw a picture of such a scene before.. Impressive.

The Cellar Dweller dio is awesome. I almost wanted to do a dio something like that, street to street battles in Stalingrad in iron ore industrial buildings...I still have a Tamiya T34/76 kit still untouched yet. This dio has inpsired me to do a similar dio...
