Hi Guys, rather than rehashing an old diorama for MALCOM, I decided to try for a new one. The concept was thought off a year ago but didn't have the time to actually make it so I did the Mission Complete vignette instead. The reason was I had to scratch at least three figures and construct the base with a huge amount of resin water in 70% of the base. There will be five new elements that I will be introducing that I have not done before so lots of experimenting will done as we go along. Palms already sweating as I type. I think I may have opened Pandora's box for me.
Below I have drawn up a plan and the juxtaposition of the little wharf and step makes the measurements challenging... the base of the water level will extend down another 5cm deep as I had cropped that out accidentally.
I also made the three armatures with wire and spue...I would have to shorten the hip sprue.

To help with the measurements I will be needing to cut a block of polystyrene for the back wall. Better to see things in 3D as plan my drawings was getting confusing.
That's as far as I've done. Hope to do more this weekend.
Cheers,
Wabble
