Really great technique! How do you make the mold for this? The layered structure in z-direction gave it the appearance of a 3D print, hence my question. Thanks for the explanation! Kudos.
Here some work shot from an previous build,
All the plastic strips (wooden planks) are scratched to represent wood grain,
Than i pour the plaster ………when dry i pull/break of all the plastic, plastic and plaster don’t stick together .
Carel,
Can’t give you the exact measurement ,
because the client im building it for ……is a seller of diorama accessories and will sell in time as a kit/model ,
But there are plenty books ,and drawing to be found on the www.
My Panther (steel ) pillbox and Panther turret bunker is already for sale at : https://nl-nl.facebook.com/marco.doeser
I build the master(s) , he sells the copies.

Great work. Not only you managed the final look in scale but also the process of making such fortified position as a “bekister”. Echt heel leuk @piet

Very cool! Would you be willing to share the dimensions of your cool flak position?
Dankjewel,
Carel
