1/35 Scale Accessories

By Michael Benolkin

 

‘Custom Dioramics’ is one of the most prolific product lines that has come from the creative minds of VLS. They’ve produced a wide range of 1/35 diorama accessories that fill in the gaps of detail in your vignettes and make many more variations possible. These range from figures to bottles to display bases. Take a look a few of the latest releases!

1/35 Street Entrance Vignette

CD1140

MSRP $19.95 USD

This set replicates a damaged European WW2-era building front to serve as a backdrop or a central part a vignette. Park a Kubelwagen outside or hide some US scouts inside while German soldiers are working outside. These great releases from Custom Dioramics add an easy way to enhance your modeling.


1/35 Street & Sidewalk Vignette

CD6072

MSRP $9.95 USD

This base will look great under any one (or more) of the Warriors figures from the WW2 era. The base represents a small section of sidewalk and cobblestone street as found in the cities across Europe. There are even traces of debris case into the base.


1/35 Cobblestone Street w/Trolley Tracks

CD6073

MSRP $15.95 USD

This 8.5"x11" resin base will work well with VLS' upcoming trolley car (naturally) and will look just as convincing with a T-34/85 or Sherman parked on it.


1/35 US Ammo Crates

CD6074

MSRP $12.95 USD

There are two types of wooden ammo crates provided in this set with ten of each type included. These will look great in the back of your Jeep or 6x6 or even stacked up as a backdrop for your figures.


1/35 European Iron Fence w/Concrete Pillars

CD6075

MSRP $12.95 USD

This set provides a corner (two sections of fence) that would enhance a street corner vignette nicely.


1/35 Wooden Picket Fence

CD6076

MSRP $12.95 USD

Has your spouse wanted a wooden picket fence? Here is a low-cost alternative that (if you survive) will also look great in a vignette. Two sections of fence are provided with a gate in between.


You can purchase these and any of the Custom Dioramics line from your local hobby retailer or directly from VLS' website at www.modelmecca.com. They have some of the fastest mail order delivery in this industry - give them a try!
