Mann über Bord…

Man Overboard, was created using a scene from the movie Das Boot. The sailor in the film did not fall on the main deck but I thought this would create a more dramatic diorama.

Figures are modified resin from l'Arsenal, some ladders and hand railings added and the main gun was scratchbuilt. The sea base was made with the same technique as explained in my diorama "rendezvous North-Atlantic".

Ok so I am guilty of not being a fan of flat tops and subs, each to their own one could say, until I had a good look at this submarine diorama and I found it to be a great build, more then enough detail and crew going on to make this a winner, the sea effect is one of the best I have seen in a long time, together this is a master piece of work, a BIG well done.

The model work is excellent and I believe this dio to have the very best water effects ever. I am especially impressed with the spray erupting from the bow, though I wish we had a close up on that effect. A glorious achievement! --Karl

thank you very much gentlemen. For every sub dio I try to make a different water movement and color. This one is nose down. To Karl : I have detailed pictures of such a bow wave in my next "feature"(HM destroyer). cheers Werner
