[REGNUM] The diorama "Scorched by Stalingrad" is 22 historical episodes that tell us about the 308th Rifle Division from Omsk formed in Omsk during the Great Patriotic War. In the recreated scenery of the Battle of Stalingrad, soldiers with machine guns in their hands froze, tanks, guns, and mortars also froze.

Yuri Teterin, the author of the diorama, decided to recreate this story a little over a year ago. For 9 months, the master worked on the layout: he came up with plots, studied historical photographs, assembled layouts, scattered broken bricks around the ruins and pored over the figures of characters. In total, there are about 100 soldiers on the 2×2 meter model, and each of them is a prototype of a real fighter of the 308th division, Colonel Gurtiev.
