1/24 Tamiya Fairlady 240ZG
This is actually my first 100% finished work of 1/24 cars! The rest just kinda didn't work out.

Bombs away (B17E diorama)
“Flak so thick you could walk on it” . Only over nazi Germany american B-17 dropped over 640,000 tons of bombs during the war. Estimates of German civilians killed only by Allied strategic bombing have ranged from around 350,000 to [...]
Street Battle
This diorama came about of necessity. A diorama had been destroyed by a child sometime ago. I decided to re-use items from that diorama together with another diorama to make up for the destroyed one. Most of the figures have been taken [...]
