discussion 1/35 Scale Shadow box Dinner on the front line from Miniart.

[Guest]

Firstly thanks to all who have followed, the advice from John Ballard and to those who have posted.

Unfortunately I can't show the lights in video here, but any of you who have FB will be able to see the 45 s video and a few photos. Just look for my name.

Was my first attempt at a shadow box, will certainly not be my last either.

For those that don't do fb here are some photos.




You can just make out the muzzle flash in the distance, far more effective in the video as the flashing became a random pattern.



A close up of that stove.



Unfortunately the frying pan handle was knocked off three times in fixing the stove I tried to refit but the build of up glue stopped it.
At least you can see the flames .

Thanks for looking in and for following.

Dzhon.

A great piece of modelling and lighting. You have become a real "metteur en scene" as we might say.

Hi Tim, thank you, glad you've seen it. Photos just don't do it any justice do they. Would have liked to have had less glare from those lights in the bunker, but the video just seemed to make it worse that the photos.

 

[Peter Gillson]

Very nice, very nice indeed, especially since its your first attempt. i look forward to future projects.

[PaulTRose]

thats excellent work

didnt take that long either!

 

[minitnkr]

Art on view. The stove fire & refection off the figs was just mind blowing Great job overall. PaulE

 

[Ian M]

I have been lurking in the cheap seats at the back quietly following this build. I must say it has turned out very well.
Great job and the lighting is very well done. It almost looks cosy in there!

Absolutely amazing john , its been a pleasure to watch this come together ( not to mention a good laugh with the banter ) and the end result is a masterpiece . Ive never seen this sort of thing done before , its a super effective way of making a diorama even more realistic , you are well justified in feeling proud of this one , cheers tony
