Atlantis Aurora 1/48 Chi Ha Japanese medium tank diorama.
My brother and I had the Aurora kit in the early seventies. I loved the vacuum formed plastic bases that those old kits had. Atlantis doesn't include those in their new releases of these kits so I decided to make one. I used a piece of foam for the hill, then covered it with sculpy bake clay. I covered the whole thing in wood glue (except for the rocky areas), then poured dirt on it. The grass is paint brush bristles, and the trees are cheap toy palms I got on eBay.
