discussion First attempt

[Guest]

never done a diorama before and didn't really have hardly any equipment/supplies to do one so this one I'm working on now has been done using random things found in the house. (The Base is a chalk board and the terrain is made from play-doh lol) treating this as sort of a practice piece as I've never painted buildings and scenery before. But had the old church piece lying around for years, and same with the two SS troops at rest. So wanted to pur them to use. Here's how it's going so far, need to add grass and mud and maybe some sort of road..

View attachment 285974Also Got these two guys to finish painting View attachment 285973 Anyone got any advice/ideas on where to go with this piece as I didn't really have a plan when I started this I just kind of making it up as I go

Nice looking base.
Maybe you can add a tree. A big one!
Will turn it "more interesting" and give more volume to the scene.
They can be seat on a abandoned vehicle or similar....

Was thinking of adding a tree but thought I'd keep it simple for my first attempts did look st buying a ready made tree but all the ones I'd seen looked naff. Nearly finished this now will be posting it soon hopefully later today
