This photo is of a diorama at the
Bosworth Battlefield Heritage Centre. Pretty cool. Makes me wish I had a bigger display table! Hey, somebody needs to do some serious 1/32 plastic knights like this. Seriously. You'd think knights like this would have been tackled by now. Oh well, maybe someday. Anyway, cool picture.
Any other battlefield dioramas you've seen at parks or historical centers that have blown you away?

The Franklin Battleground outside Nashville, TN has a pretty impressive diorama using mainly GIANT figures and maybe some Airfix; it's been a couple years since I saw it. But it's an impressive job.
There's a private museum outside Lookout Mountain in Chattanooga that has a pretty awesome display, too. There's a narration and the relevant portions of the battlefield light up as the narration describes the action on that particular part of the field. Cool.

I'd like to see some great knights in 1/32 scale, the last I recall were the Accurate/Revell figures but they were more 1/35 scale. I do have the Barzso 60mm.
There's nothing like a large battlescene for the Medieval era and 1/72 is perfect for that. I love to drag my guys out and set 'em all up - forget the variances in armor styles from period to period, they just look so good set up together.

There seems to be enough Knights in 1/32 plastic - Britains, Timpo, Marx and others what is needed is more Archers, peasant infantry and Men-at-Arms. It would be great to have the 100 years Wars done by a Conte or TSSD.
