Mike Kohta
Green Bay, Wisconsin
Mike’s diorama, Age of Innocence, depicts Ukrainian troops on a captured Russian tank waving at a photographer and refugees. He used 1/35 scale Dragon and Trumpeter Shika AA and BMP3-E tanks and added LEDs from Evans Designs to illuminate their interiors. Painting, Mike went with Vallejo acrylics, Tamiya enamels, and artist oils, and worked both with an airbrush and paintbrushes.
