It's gonna be a really catching dio! Fantastic work. :)

My favourite miniature is the plague doctor, maybe you could add a small bell to the wagon, if you want?
So the people could prepare for it and get out the bodies.

Best regards and my compliments,

Thank you very much for your compliments, guys! :)

The shield was pre- structured, so it was easier to paint the lion on the surface, but I've tested a shadow effect at the edges of the shield front with brighter to darker blue/red.

I'll keep workin' on! :)

That are a lot of good ideas and inspirations! I'll guess that I have to do a little walk during the next days and collect some roots of different bushes, trees and plants. My first try was to build a tree made of wire and cast, but it didn't look very natural... maybe it's an unwritten rule, that the most authentic plants for modelling are made by nature on its own. ;)

Oh, and thank you very much for your welcome! :)
I always watched out for a introduction are but I couldn't find one yet, so I think it should be okay to start posting.

I hope that I'm able to present my next diorama during the months, but I'm afraid that it will take a while anymore... it treats the evening before the battle of Agincourt and at the moment I'm working at an Earl's tent.

Best regards,
Steffen

A very nice idea with a good catched atmosphere! :)

Especially the trees are looking very authentic, what did you use for them?

Best regards,
Steffen
