A Simple Diorama

The Finished Product

So there we go, a simple diorama which has taken me about 16 weeks to complete from start to finish. The process here is pretty much how I build most of my dioramas. The methods I use are not the only way of doing things but they are the ways I have found successful for me.

The last thing that needs to be done is to give your project a title. My search for a moniker that captured the diorama's theme led me to a friend who suggested "Der anfang vom ende" (lucky his wife is German). So there it stands, "The beginning of the end."

I hope that this step-by-step illustrated tutorial has been useful to some of you and that it has offered an insight or two into building dioramas. The main thing is to give it a try, experiment and have fun.

If you have any questions please let me know. There are more pictures of the finished diorama below so until next time,


happy modelling!
