Excellent!
The style looks familiar: some time ago I saw a very similar diorama with Germans working on a Blohm und Voss B&V P.208 fighter plane.

Wow, you're right, there's much in common form the layout and set up!
I guess it comes froma general layout of the German underground factories and inspirations. I know I had mainly the underground U-Boot bunker from India Jones (Raider of the Lost Arc) in the back of my head, but I also looked at many images of German underground factories as inspiration.
Thanks for sharing
Cheers

Thank you!
As usual there is a little stroy to the diorama:
Dencaran Fleet Admiral Koppmeyer and Marshal Grossholderman of the Dencaran MCMXIX Atmospheric Strike Fleet visit the “Rheingold” research facility on Tedescium (Dencara 3). Here they inspect the Special Research Department “von Sonnenberg” where they are introduced to one of the latest armor projects for the Naval Landing Forces. They are accompanied by the Admiral’s personal pilot Wing Commander Koch.
The project on display is the research weapons carrier XII with the new weapon plant “Scorpion” and the crew compartment improvement “Odin” (Versuchswaffenträger XII mit Kampfmittelanlage “Skorpion” & Kampfraumverbesserung “Odin”).
At this moment the weapon plant is re-mounted to the vehicle after it has been equipped with the new 120mm StuK 55L/5 Smoothbore gun and readied for trials.

Hi Arnolf,
well first I determine where I want my light effects, and then leave these areas free of the darkeing washes. Once the other areas are dark enough (through several coats of washes) I start to make the light areas lighter.
I do this by either drybrushing or airbrushing first with white (very carefull) and then with yellow and orange to make these colors warmer.
Does this make sense to you?

Yep !
I 'll give it a try.
Last time I used thin layer thinking that dry brushing wouldn't be a good way, but You just gave me the proof that it is !
Thank you !
