discussion Tiny Dioramas

[Kelly McFadden]

Hello Scale Modelers.

I’m Kelly.

Andy Belsey clued me into your site. I’ve only been a member for a week, but have enjoyed roaming around your forums. Really great work on this site.

I became friends with Andy by pestering him about his 1/285th scale dioramas after I saw them online. And I read his articles in magazines and on the web. I wanted to learn how to do that, or at least something kind of like that. I’ve got a long way to go but its been fun and he’s been a big help.

Here’s a tiny diorama I finished earlier this year. Its 1/285th scale and lives in an Altoids mint tin.

Thanks.

Thanks for the kind words! Here's another 1/285th scale diorama. This is in a one of the sugar free Altoids containers. They're smaller than the regular sized tins.
