Ever play Battlefield 1942, Secret Weapons of WWII? There's a stage called Hellendoorn with a couple of secret planes, tanks, motorcycles and other stuff.

I've never done a diorama before. I'd like some tips on doing mountains, terain on the Netherlands, doing realistic-looking winter water, snow and buildings.

What scale do you suppose the map should be on a tabletop?

1/1000 scale.

get a couple of model RR books on scenery for insight. there are a bunch of ways to do mountains.

neat!

Thanks!

The first question is, how much room are you working with? Once you determine that, you can start considering scale. Next it 's time to see what's available in a scale that will allow you to make the most out of your desires. Once you get those figures, go wild. Can't wait for your pix! :thumbsup: rr
