"The Last Eagle" - The Battle of Teutoburg Forrest
« on: October 28, 2015, 03:36:03 PM »
Hi all,

long time lurker and first time Poster.  ;)  I hope I am ok posting pictures on here, if not my apologies  ;)

I created a little Diorama integrating the limited edition Warlord Games Miniature - Centurion Titus Aduxas. It is called "The last Eagle" and depicts a last stand of Roman Soldiers during the Battle in the Teutoburg Forrest. The Area in Germany has a special spot in my heart as I was born in that part and can remember going for a walk on a Sunday through that forrest with my parents :-)
 
The tree was handmade and I also tried to add specific vegetation to the base to make it look more like a wooded area.
 
I hope you like it and please let me know what you think.

Kind regards

Sascha

Isn't that shield a bit too modern?
