Excellent Fred.

How ironic that these Frenchmen were amongst the last defenders of Berlin.

My grenadiers received reinforcements from Nordland division:
Here is a StuH (Italeri 1/56) not finished yet.

Diorama is going on progressing:
The Stug has been glued on base and grenadiers too. The panzer officer is still "on the Workbench" and I'm working on basing, ground and snow.
It is becomming interresting.
