If I recall correctly the teller mines were a waste of resources as they didn’t like being immersed in salt water twice a day, so most if not all ended up being duds. The allies knew this as they had grabbed a couple during pre d-day scouting missions, so they didn’t even have a deterrent effect. The Chechz hedgehogs did find a later use, the allies cut them up to make the hedgerow cutters, nice of the Germans to provide the raw materials.
That’s a lovely piece of work Hank👌 Love the way that small square of beach has so much variation in both colour & textures. It’s hard to show some interesting terrain alone, without the need for a vehicle, figures or building, but just the raw groundwork, Nice video well done..👏😊
Awesome work Hank! I just built up a couple little display bases for my tanks using a couple simple wooden plaque boards from Menards, some Modge Podge, and brown sugar! I let everything dry and hit it with a couple coats of green and brown, and sprinkled in a little cat litter for pebbles...oh what you can do with not a lot of money! Sometimes the base is a model in and of itself! :)
Im so glad I found the correct channel to accompagny me in my new hobby soon :D Digesting all possible information in and then I can get started in Q3 ! Thank you for your guidance and personality ! I will do my buys thru your links , its the least I can do ;-)
That Hank looks awesome, such a simple diorama base. Dragon make a set of US Army figures landing on beach, master box might as well. Either or would look great, or a german solder with a dog. Walking on the lonely beach, on patrol. Hey wait, i think I will do that. 😅 Great video thank you
Truly amazing! Could you please make a full tutorial video on painting the Rado RDM35041 "Feuer Frei" figures now? I recently bought them and they will be the first figures I will ever paint, so such a tutorial would be very helpful. Thank you in advance!
Looks great, Hank. I've seen several D-Day dioramas that forgot the Teller mines mounted on the obstacles. Hmm....a certain teacher molded by Nuts Planet would look great in this diorama. 😉
Great job Hank, very realistic. Well worth doing this way, I love it. Also any update on when part 5 of H.E.A.T.S in coming out I'm hanging out there for it.
Looks great. Love the multiple surf lines that help guide the eye up the beach.
Thank you!!

Great tutorial. Be interesting to see what models / figures you place on your diorama!
Thanks!!

Great video thank you
the Tamiya German briefing figure set (four soldiers and a dog) would work well here-

Absolutely

A great one to go next to it would be Rommel back at home for his wife’s birthday wondering why they’re losing the war.
Hey Hank great video - get some models on it.
Pull a Call of Duty and put a discarded Arisaka rifle on it
Good diorama, reminded me ww2 movies and fallout.
You ever been thinking about Fallout scale models?
Make a Lego DDay diorama
