Some sketch of the layout with the major elements in place

Basic construction of the base is complete. Next is ground texture and brushing the sides with some water-based gloss-varnish to get rid of the "fluffy" appearance of the wood

Ground textures have been applied. Now to the vegetation

Some progress is being made. I added static grass and finished the roof of the stand as well as framing and a ladder. Now, I have to prime model and base. The grass and terrain will also be painted via airbrush. And I have to do some bushes to put in the rear area of the vignette

Gras and ground were painted with an airbrush. Some enamel effects will tie them together more later on

The stand was primed in deck tan, although the final apperance will be modified with acrylic colours, using this layer as a base

Very nice! Let me ask you:
1. How is fitting of parts of UAZ, please? Is it difficult built? I´d love to build one but what I saw in some reviews was not worth money. Not only poor fitting of parts, but also design issues of the car.
2.From where these miniatures came from?
Thank you very much!

@miloss: The UAZ is indeed giving me some trouble and I am in fact thinking about maybe switching to a Balaton "Buchanka". The figure is from a Modelcollect BMP-3 with interior. Same figure seems to be included in their HEMTT and MAZ combo-pack

Album info

Building a little diorama that I will call "Field Trip" featuring a hunter, his dog and the UAZ 469 by MAC in 1/72. As the vehicle will feature some stowage in it and will be displayed as an open topped vehicle to show this. In the background, I will place a hunter´s seat scratchbuilt from styrene and maybe some wood. Finishing off the diorama will be some vegetation elements as such as bushes.
