Created by René Hieronymous from Austria, this massive 1/72 scene depicts a famous Kamikaze attack on the USS Missouri on April 11,1945, 10 days into the battle of Okinawa and four days after the sinking of the Yamato.

You should do a diorama with all your models.

You could even do anachronistic,
Like when we were kids and had Batman and the Ninja Turtles facing off against He-Man and the Ghostbusters

Is the plane’s propeller actually spinning in the diorama and the blur is from the camera? Or did they actually paint the camera shutter onto the piece itself?

The really good diorama builders always blow my mind. Some of them are just great with the details.

It appears to be a model effect.

I’ve considered it but they take up so much extra space.
