The Horror Of The Hurtgen Forest
Loading...
Uploaded by beetstreet4 on Jun 21, 2009
The Hurtgen Forest was a killing field for which both the Americans and Germans paid dearly for. Unlike a lot of other battles on both the Eastern and Western Fronts, the Battle Of The Hurtgen Forest is one that there is little hype about. Despite its ferociousness. This diorama is my most recent. Living in Canada gave me a wealth of information on evergreen forests, their look and undergrowth. This is the first diorama to feature trees exclusively made by myself. The photograpging of this diorama was especially challenging due to all the trees. At one point I had to remove some just to photograph some of the soldiers! If you have any questions on how I make my dioramas, I will attempt to answer them but please be patient and some I may not answer - sorry. I hope you enjoy the video. Beetstreet

@bleushift Thank you. The scale is a blend of 1 35th and 1 32nd. It's actually quite large but not my biggest.

Great diorama but there weren't falshrmjagers in the Hurtgen Forest

@tucoakatherat Thank you for the compliment. When you get the chance look into the 3rd Fallschirmjäger Division, it's involvement in the Ardennes Offensive and the Hurtgen Forest. Hope that helps with some clarification in regards to this diorama. Thanks again, Beetstreet
