Ok, although I normally don't like to talk about unfinished plans here are some facts about the dioramas:<br>
- as far as I am not the only one working on this idea, it wasn't my decision to plan with 90mm figures. (I'm currently working on some small 1/72-scale dioramas) And if we don't find a way to get 90mm we will take 54mm or perhaps would try to make our own ones (which would be much more work than we expected. If anyone here has already tried it, please give me some hints. )<br>
- the idea is to make some dioramas with legionaries in different situations (part of a march-camp, building up siege-weapons, building a ramp for a siege-tower, building a road or bridge and so on). Perhaps we will use "cut away"-sides so that you can look into the interior of fortification-walls or we will build in some moveable parts at battering-rams (there are some great ideas in our head ). But this would not work in a lower scale than 54mm.<br>
- the dioramas should be able to be used in a museum as well as at re-enactment events and presentations.<br>
<br>
I currently guess that the money will be the best argument for downscaling.<br>
