Beautiful work on the garments... I think that "sombre" catches it.  The trunks have the right feel of time and if the layout of the items in the clothing is akin to the final, it gives a sense of passing or abandonment.  I was thinking back to the Schindler's List use of the red coat as a gimmick, but I would worry that it comes off, well gimmicky :)

The much used cart looks like it was scarfed from some Lithuanian farm...

Beautiful job on the clothing.  You've really made the hard castings look "soft".
This is going to be an impressive diorama.

Nicely done. I like the new title, too.

Really great to see you post this build and your techniques here. Your work is a wonderful addition to the forum.

Sorry for my lack of posts on this build (and your others) here and on MIG, but I have simply run out of superlatives....so I just enjoy watching.

Beautiful work.  Should be a very impressive diorama.

Great how to. Thanks for all your postings.

Thank you all, very much.  Having the support and encouragement of such talented modelers means a great deal to me.

Best,

Rick,
please post some final pictures!

I have seen them in the MIG forum and I think that you did a terrific job on such a delicate topic. The holocaust theme is something incredibly difficult to address in general, but you managed handle it in a respectful and yet moving way! - Aside from your excellent model work, of course!

Please post some pictures.

And that is why links to photos on other sites are a waste of time and space: You never know when someone will pull the image or close the site. If you want to post a photo, DO NOT post links. Download the photo to your computer and upload the photo here. Easy. It works. You'll be happy. -- Russ
