Custom Dioramics is one of the most prolific product lines that has come from the creative minds of VLS. They've produced a wide range of 1/35 diorama accessories that fill in the gaps of detail in your vignettes and make many more variations possible. These range from figures to bottles to display bases. Take a look at the latest release! Click on the photo to see an enlarged view.

Whether you're modeling Israeli operations in Lebannon or coalition operations in Iraq, here is an interesting building all closed up that is seriously damaged from earlier combat. This is the building first set I've seen from Custom Dioramics that wasn't at least partially cast in Plaster of Paris. This set is 100% resin and will make this scene a little lighter and much less brittle. This will make a nice setting to park an IDF M151 or a US HMMWV in front and use some of the appropriate recent Warriors figures to bring the setting to life.

You can purchase these and any of the Custom Dioramics line from your local hobby retailer or directly from VLS' website at www.modelmecca.com. They have some of the fastest mail order delivery in this industry - give them a try!

My sincere thanks to VLS for these review samples!
