Joint dioramas

Santenay France 1940...

Thanks for the info Alex because like Marco, I thought they were all FIAT little mice

Marco re last pic, do you think the soldiers are posing to spite the cruxifiction statues, or just for the record. Out of curiosity, were there any known Roman Catholic Germans? It may sound a silly question for some, but I'm in total ignorance re this and it just cropped to mind when I saw this interesting pic, so I'm just firing on this question.........????

Of course there were , not all germans were nazi's, some or most of them were just fighting for the fatherland, as germans or forced to fight , there were no way out..

I have a documentary in the last days of fighting in stalingrad , were there one soldier wich draw a beautiful pencil or coal of the holy mary and all those who belive pray to this potrait to save them ,and they use to call the russian madonna, infact this portrait is kept in small chapel in stalingrad....


If I can scan a still of this drawing , I will upload it...

I scan some stills from the 2003 German documentary Stalingrad...

This is the german doctor who draw it with pencil..ironicaly he died later in Russin captivity 1944....



This is as they call it the Madonna of Stalingrad , which the german doctor drew...





And this the chaple were the potrait is kept as memmory in Stalingrad....

Wermacht and SS had army chaplains in their platoons, though the bigger concentration were protestants, due that lutheran is stronger in Germany etc. It is more post war soviet communism who was after christianism, mate ... but let's leave these political history discussion out of this forum, especially for the Holy Week period!

We still have time for a quarterly model - of a century

p.s. - I think that typhoon has got one or two people to much on it , so much for no step here, no step there, no push and so on. Just a little question - was it still flyable after this picture

You might like to build this one Marco, very original

Give him a break Brian Don't put more salt on the wound (melh fuq il-ferita ) He's still not fully recovered from the eggplane issue

That 109 car was posted curtesy of Brad aka slingshot who sent me the pic. I don;t know if it actually exisited but i can imagine Marco parking that thing outside the club every Wednesday although the colours are not quite right, the yellow is a bit..... and the camo...... OOPs, we shall have to find more pics and colour chips to get it right.
