We got a chance to review the very nice "Landscapes of War. Diorama Vol.I” from the Greatest Guide series a while ago and we found it a really interesting and equally as informative guide. When we heard about the second book coming and received new pictures we thought you would want to see what’s new in our preview of Volume II…

We got a pretty good synopsis from the people at Accion Press and seeing as we don’t wanna make too much up here is what is promised in Volume II of this series…
“The second volume of a series dedicated to how to make dioramas; different kinds of natural landscapes that became the war scenarios during WWII.
On this occasion, we travel to Tunisia, where the German forces were under the grip of the British and the U.S Army in order to recreate the scenery known as Wadi and Palm trees.
The reader also will be able to travel to The Ardennes, Hurtgen Forest, Belarus or the well-known Bocage in Normandy where will learn how to depict a number of natural elements available on those landscapes of war. The latest techniques and the best materials to make a simple base, palm trees, ice, icicles, mushrooms, mosses, lichens, water, ivy, ferns and numerous water courses.”
