Wonderful! I like the canyon-like layout of your diorama with buildings on both side of the street.

Inspirational. What material did you use to build the structures? -- Russ

[Sami]

Thank's for your answers !

I used differents material for the structures : styren, cardboard, plaster, gouaches, oil paint, pigments, ...

I used brass Photo-engraving, a master and plaster for brick work.
brass Photo-engraving sold by DECAPOD, a french Society.

But to the three last building I'll use laser cut technique.

At the moment I make a new building. Before I drew a sketch and plan with Autocad.




I used technique of Chuck Doan to Wood peeling paint

Welcome aboard! Very nice work, at least what i can see of it. For some reason, I'm only getting blanks spaces where some of the photos should be.

Hi Sami,

welcome to the forum - and your work looks promising!
Your approach with this mixture of real 3D-buildings and trompe-'loei-buildings is interesting, if I construed this picture correctly:

Wonderful! I like the canyon-like layout of your diorama with buildings on both side of the street.

Ditto. And there'll be lots of angles to take pictures.

Cheers,
Volker

Thank's for your encouraging messages.

I make a portal.  I used styren.
But I don't know if I'm going to use hairspray technique or micro-painting for rust effect. I work in 1/87 and the portal is little.
What do you think of it ?

[Ray Dunakin]

Nice work!

[Sami]

Thank you Ray.
