So here is the final reveal , you may find the Building Thread here:

http://intscalemodeller.com/viewtopic.php?f=285&t=8085

I decided to make a scene during the Battle of Cambrai in 1917 ...it wasn't the first time that tamks were used , but it ws the first time that they were used massivaly , more than 300 British tank break the German Lines only to one or two days latter to be all the same way ...however nothing was the same since then , the use of the tanks in supporting Infantry was seen a success , even that this tanks have very often mechanic failures , in some zones of the front also the use of Anti-tank speasialized units with anti-tanks guns also prove that they weren't unstoppable ...well history then show us that the tanks were used from now on in all Major Battles until our Days , this was the beggining ...

The Assault German Infantry defending the trenches ...well they are in a counter attack ( and also they were the only WWI German avaiable so ...)

About the Hyacinth ...well Hyacinth faith in the first day of the Battle was this :

Ditched in a trench ....maybe it was this trench I deppict in my Diorama
