Title: Locating a pic of a diorama FOUND
Post by: Belg on March 22, 2011, 02:34:43 PM
Hey guys, I'm trying to find a picture of a diorama which is basically set under water, it was a resin cube with a diver searching a sunken ship and I believe it had a ship above in support but not positive about that part. I know the resin was in a blue shade. Does this ring any bells with anyone? Thanks Pat

Frederic, the diorama shown on the cover of the elements in combat is the one I'm looking for but using all the search terms I can think of have not found any pics. I wish I had a name for the dio or could figure out who the builder might be would really help. I know I saw the pics in a group of a show where it was displayed. Thanks for the lead, Pat

OK , Pat , you lazy old sod . Just type in "Herr Hauptmann's Champagne" into Google and see what you come up with . There are some good pictures on Armorama for starters .

  Now go and do some proper research and stop relying on everyone else to do your dirty work ! Ha , ha ,

DING, DING, DING, Its a good thing I have some friends with a much better memory than me. Much appreciated, Nick

I think this might be the one Marc was thinking of in the FichtenFoo thread mentioned above???

Here is a link to the pics of the diorama for those who looked in

Pat, be sure I'm proud to be taken for Marc, but I suspect his memory is even better than mine and he would have found the right link... :)
