This is my last creation, a kind of diorama, consisting of a Chronos 75mm miniature (scale 1/24) depicting Baron Munchausen and three miniatures of napoleonic artillery crew in 1/72 scale by Zvezda models.
My aim was to recreate the well known myth of flying Baron on a canonball over the enemy lines, utilizing the difference in scale to convey the depth and perspective of the scene.

Baron's uniform colours is by my taste and imagination. I used the white/black/red colours in order to point out his german origin eventhough he was a mercenary in the russian army. Thus the artillery crew are painted in green colour.

Thanks a lot for visiting, voting and commenting this thread !
