    Here are some pics of my XXX Corps diorama so far without any bases or scenery added to it, the figures are made by King and Country:)

    In OMG , 3rd Inf Div was with 11th Armd Div in VIII Corps.
    Not XXX Corps.
    VIII Corps were to protect the right flank of XXX Corps.

    Get your paint brushes out then.
    You could also buy some transfer sheets with the correct markings on them.

    Hey guys, here's a pic of the German Panther tank which King and Country just rekleased today!:D

    Description: Hitlerjugend Panther Ausf. A Another essential part of the division's fighting inventory was a company of Panther tanks. This latest Panther Ausf. A tank is definitely K&C's most detailed Panther to date. Covered in "zimmerit" paste and battle-worn, two crew members can be seen with the vehicle as it prepares to engage the enemy.

    Probably it doesn't matter, add some Diggers or 4th Indian Div for good measure too, who cares?

    While perhaps you're not all that bothered about some inconsistencies, others would take the presentation of dioramas a little more seriously. ;) I'd suggest that the constructive comments arise from your choice of title - but of course it's entirely up to you whether you take advantage of the advice.
