Detailed Diorama Kits of Military Engagements
Creating a realistic and historically accurate battlefield has never been easier with our collection of detailed diorama kits. These dioramas let you recreate some of history’s most significant military engagements, from pivotal Civil War battles to modern conflicts. Whether you're a seasoned modeller or just starting, our diorama kits provide everything you need to bring history to life.
For those interested in the American Civil War, we have a Union and Confederate soldiers 1:35 kit that captures the intensity of one of the bloodiest conflicts in U.S. history. The Civil War, fought from 1861 to 1865, was more than just a battle between two armies - it was a clash of ideologies that reshaped the nation and our diorama kits capture that in visual form.
The brutality of the war is well documented, with both Union and Confederate soldiers engaged in relentless combat. Our kit brings a piece of this history to your display, featuring 16 figures that showcase the grit and determination of those who fought.
Stepping into the trenches of World War I, you might like a detailed kit of the iconic Vickers machine gun. Trench warfare defined this era, with soldiers relying on heavy artillery and defensive positions to hold the line. The Vickers MG was a staple of British forces, providing essential firepower in the gruelling stalemates of the Western Front.
Our diorama kit includes a model of the Vickers MG, along with ammunition belts, water tanks, and two figures representing a British machine gun crew. This carefully crafted set allows you to recreate the harsh realities of WWI battlefields. World War II saw combat on an unprecedented scale, and our dioramas attempt to reflect the human stories behind the battles.
One such kit, ‘Prayer Before Battle,’ highlights the role of military chaplains who provided spiritual support to soldiers facing the horrors of war. The Royal Army Chaplains’ Department played a crucial role in the British Armed Forces, offering comfort and guidance to troops on the front lines.
Many of these brave individuals served in dangerous conditions, with 96 British and 38 Commonwealth chaplains losing their lives during WWII. This diorama set captures a powerful moment of reflection before combat, bringing an emotional depth to any collection. Our diorama kits also keep up with history as it unfolds.
Whether you want to build a historical battlefield or honour modern-day heroes, our diorama kits offer a detailed and immersive way to explore military history.
Accessories, Buildings, Terrain & Diorama Habitats
Besides military engagements, we also offer a wide range of accessories to customise your dioramas, as well as terrain kits that bring your scenes to life. Whether you're building a historical battlefield or a detailed civilian setting, our selection allows you to add realistic details that enhance your display.
Historical landmarks play a crucial role in storytelling, and the La Haye Sainte Stable kit is a prime example. This MDF laser-cut kit features etched details that accurately recreate the famous farmhouse from the Battle of Waterloo in 1815. With precise craftsmanship, the structure captures the essence of the historic battle, making it an ideal piece for Napoleonic war enthusiasts.
If your diorama includes military airfields or modern combat zones, the 210 x 336 mm landing pad is an essential component. Based on M8A1 steel plates developed by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, these plates were widely used during the Vietnam War to construct temporary airstrips. Featuring a corrugated surface for effective rainwater drainage, this landing pad allows you to recreate authentic army aviation bases with historical accuracy.
For those looking to create dynamic natural environments, the scenic woodland & water kit provides everything needed to craft realistic water features, foliage, and terrain. With materials to build rivers, waterfalls, and ocean waves, this diorama habitat opens up endless creative possibilities. Whether your diorama depicts a tranquil lake near a battlefield or a rushing river cutting through a war-torn landscape, this set offers the tools to bring your vision to life.
With these customisation options, you can make your dioramas uniquely your own, ensuring every detail reflects your creativity and historical accuracy.
