This is my first diorama, based on the 90s classic illustration by David Gallagher. Made entirely out of plastic Space Marine pieces, heavily transformed and studied to achieve the most resemblance possible to the original concept art, while maintaining an interesting composition in 360 degrees. Took more than 400 hours of work and 8 months hobby dedicated exclusively to it.
The scene won silver on one of the most difficult Diorama categories I've ever seen, in the Spanish GD 2010.
Dedicated to my Morsa family (Elías, Irene, Piti and Narnia). You guys made it possible.

That...is...awesome!
Simply brilliant. I'm lost for words.
Ever since I saw the artwork I'd hoped to see a diorama of it, but this exceeds anything I'd ever imagine. A true work of art!
This is something really special.
There's a sense of agitation too that comes from the various lines drawn and suggestions of movement, as if there's a frustration in the marines they can't do more, but also a cool, collected resignation.
To get so much in there is astounding, and style really does make the models look like jewels.
This is best miniaturer's start of the year. You did fantastic job, this is simply awesome! You really made my day...
O_o' AWESOME!!!

I have seen some great examples of artwork done justice with a mini, but yours is simply amazing, just not only in precision but in scale and all the required modifications needed.
