A paper sheet with American transport crates for K field rations, 1:35 scale. It is cut out and folded into three-dimensional cartons.
Responsibility details are not available.
Before a ration reached a soldier it had traveled in a heap of identical cartons. They were stacked into pyramids beside roads, waited on beaches, rode on load beds and stood lined up in barns turned into depots. In a diorama, crates therefore fill a different role from individual little boxes: they create volume, build walls, let you stand a figure on something and, above all, show that behind a combat scene stands an enormous logistical apparatus.
The package consists of a paper sheet. That sounds modest, but with cartons it is the most correct choice. The thickness of the wall matches reality, the edges can be crushed and scuffed just as on the original, and a dented corner comes about simply by pressing with a fingernail. A casting would never offer that quality.
The best effect comes from an irregular pyramid with a few pieces turned on their sides and one unwrapped on top. Dusting with pigment will unify the paper with the terrain and a weak glaze on the bottom rows will suggest damp from the ground. A stack like that raises the level of a whole scene for the price of one sheet, and at the same time hides the places where the base would otherwise gape empty.
