Thank you so much, it's an "oldie but goodie" the main thing with planning a diorama IMO is to try to make it a snap shot of something going on, it doesn't have to be elaborate. simple messages that can be picked up at first glance. Ground work can be simple at first then you can pick up steam as you go along, not that difficult really, hardest part is finding "quiet time" just stay off the tele a bit more, most of it is mindless drivel any way
