Hi

I thought I would share a picture of a diorama I have been working on.

The diorama base is a 4inch x 4inch oak plinth,
the work surface area is 80mm x 80mm.

The diorama depicts a little lineside lamp lighters hut.

I hope you like my work.

Very nice. 

Grass is a little too neat for my taste. 

If you add some gravel, taller weeds, maybe a flower or two,
and some mud in layers it would polish it off.

Hi Rod

Thanks for your comments.

The diorama is not completely finished,
so a few of those items you mentioned can be added.

:cool:  :cool:

Hi Kevin  :wave:


I guess that oak-plank you bought back in the last Millennium ...  :old dude:

... has lasted quite well !  :P  ;) 



I have always been a fan of the ol'  "less is more"  saying !  :thumb:

A dusty ol' Zen Master idea I think, from several 100 years B.C. (at least !)  L:

He may well have had something there & even wrote a Haiku about it ?  ???



Anyway, enough philosophical drivel for 1 evening !  :f:





GREAT  :bg:  DIORAMA  !


I am trying to learn something from this ...  :dope:
... & am wondering how many Sq"s I'd need for a bogie-hopper in 1:35n2  ???  :brill:



I may have to further consult yet again, your equally GREAT  :bg:  'China Clay' diorama ...


'China Clay' - My New Diorama
... to square up the baseboard situation.  :doh:  (groan) 



:moose: :moose: :moose: :moose: :moose:



Si.
