Italeri 6193 - 1/72 WWII Stalingrad Siege Battle Diorama Kit  [IT-6193S]

1/72 Stalingrad Siege diorama kit from Italeri - recreate urban ruins

The siege of Stalingrad stands as a decisive and brutal chapter of World War II, marked by intense house-to-house fighting and widespread destruction. In the summer of 1942 the German advance targeted the city and surrounding river approaches, reducing large areas to rubble under sustained bombardment.

A major German objective was to take industrial hubs, including the tractor factory that became important to armoured vehicle production. The Soviet counteroffensive in November 1942 encircled German troops, resulting in the Sixth Army surrender in early 1943 and a major strategic reversal for the Axis.

This Italeri 1/72 kit gives hobbyists the components to build a compact diorama of ruined streets and tactical positions from the siege, ready for painting and weathering to achieve a realistic finish.
