    Not to open more dibates but was discussing with a Spanish friend and seems CLEMENZIA might be the proper Spanish word ... but for the time being I await his updating in proper Spanish and would like to show the concept of my little vignette, for the time being I am calling it 50 shades of Grey ... not the erotic book : )

    Hope you like sorry lousy image and reflections but the idea is to have a monchrome effect ... and had no time setting up properly ...

    Brilliant work Ivan, what a great composition, keeps you looking Cool

    Just a small nit-pick, should'nt the turret doors be hanging like the driver one?

    i tend to agree with tancred, given the angle of the tank. However, if the crew exited via the driver's position, then they are correct. they would only be left hanging totally opened if the crew got out of there.

    Ha ha ... Brain is correct on this, shows he is a mechanical engineer!

    We tend to think about everything goes vis a vie gravity, Brian is right the means of escape is the front door, infect looking at the front drivers doors it is also strange how the top part opens up , yet still defies the laws of gravity, but with some research found out that it has a mechanical spring to keep door open upwards ... on another note Tancred is right also if one escapes from the tophatch but did not want to replicate my previous dio 'FEAR' so I opted for a different view ... and had in mind to avoid showing the turret interior, the impact would have been a stark white interior which would have distract a lot with the modular shade of the tank ... some thought and artistic license aswell hux
    : )

    Thank you guys for your comments and insight ... today just finished painting some highlights and setting more clear resin, when everything is set hopefully will prepare a fotosession ...

    What a great diorama, a very different setting and tells a good story. Great detail on the tank and the figures.
