A superb diorama created by Mark-Armor.
This diorama takes place on the Eastern front in late Fall of 1943. During a tank skirmish, this Tiger I went off the “beaten track” and ended up in a marsh. It didn’t take long for it to become bogged down in the deep mud. Luckily there was a maintenance company nearby outfitted with a Bergepanzer. Problem solved!
