Family Diorama

I finally finished the diorama of my Great Great Grandfather in time to give it to my father on Christmas. Grandfather was part of the Powhatan Artillery from Powhatan VA. commanded by Capt Dance. Their unit was stationed in the defenses around Richmond when Union force nearly overran his battery, if not for the timely arrival of a Tennessee unit. In the fighting my Grandfather lost his arm and his brother. In memory of their sacrifice I wanted to capture the battle in a diorama and give it to my father as a gift. It was my first diorama I have ever made. In the center are two costume made miniatures of my ancestors by a sculptor in Russia. As an exact account of the battle is not available I took some cinematic liberties. We do come up pone a letter written by another soldier who was at the battle and I have used it as a guide. Loads more pictures on my blog to include some WIP and the letter we found:
