Testing scenery ideas using a diorama - mountaingoatgreg - 10-14-2010 So.... I took a little break to work on project for the RPM meet in Wichita. I want to make a realistic looking photo diorma do equipment can be photograhped in a realistic setting. I have a long way to go but I have short time to get there so I will make this quick.... This sure beats building some scenery on a permannet layout just to have to tear it out and start over. This also has helped me to visualize the way the shelf layout will work when I get to the scnery phase. Re: Scenic Diorama - P5se Camelback - 10-14-2010 That works for being quick! In fact ... it's Peachy! Re: Scenic Diorama - mountaingoatgreg - 10-17-2010 a little more progress..... Re: Scenic Diorama - Fluesheet - 10-17-2010 mountaingoatgreg Wrote:a little more progress..... The splice bar details are very nice. I've purchased some and am looking forward to when I can start experimenting with it. Re: Testing scenery ideas using a diorama - Gary S - 10-17-2010 Looking good, Greg. Your modeling skills are way up there. Looking forward to seeing many more nice scenes from you! Oh... How about some tutorials along the way? I still can't get over how well your mountain backdrop turned out. Re: Testing scenery ideas using a diorama - mountaingoatgreg - 10-17-2010 Hey guys!! Thanks for the comments!! As for tutorials I am currently writing an article on my trackwork and if it does not get picked up I will post it here. The rest of it is pretty much standard stuff not worth taking pictures of. If I come up with something useful I will try to slow down long enough to take a pciture. Here are a few more photos I got rid of the elevator being as it did not look right Here are a couple of images of the loading dock end of the module Re: Testing scenery ideas using a diorama - Gary S - 10-22-2010 I like it, Greg. The weathering is nice, and I see that your artistry is showing through on the backdrop. - nice work on the buildings. I like MP 82350 too. Re: Testing scenery ideas using a diorama - mountaingoatgreg - 10-23-2010 Thanks Gary, Here is some more progress Re: Testing scenery ideas using a diorama - faraway - 10-24-2010 That is really beautiful. I like it very much! Re: Testing scenery ideas using a diorama - Ralph - 10-24-2010 I like it too! The structures have a very "railroady" look to them. I like the juxtaposition of the green brick and corrugated metal buildings. The Texaco tanks are great. Nice ground cover work too! Ralph Re: Testing scenery ideas using a diorama - mountaingoatgreg - 10-24-2010 Ralp and Reinhard, Thank you so much for the great comments, I added some details today but will wait for more visable progress before I post some more pictures. |
