| Hi joe. Welcome. I have had a look for the British Bell tents in that scale (Found nothing) But cam across these Tepees. I think either way modifications will be needed.
Let me know if they will do.

| Thanyou, They are very hard to get you hands on in that scale. Those tepees might work but you right some modification may be needed Cheers, Joe |

| Hi Joe Not exactly dioramas, but my office has an architectural practice that builds lots of models of developments to 1:100 or 1:50 scale. |

| Hi Joe,
My son picked up a set of tents at Carronade war game show last Saturday, They were made by a U.K. company named Renedra. You get two Bell tents, two small A frame tents and two Larger A frame tents. Each tent has a closed and open version. They are not on their website yet, but here is a Link
http://renedra.co.uk/index.html
There is pictures of the on TMP though, here is the Link
