Hi guys,

It's a Armour diorama. Hope that's ok. :unsure:
well I finally finished my Sherman diorama. I had to have it finished for a contest I'm entering it next week Sunday. I'm entering this diorama and my Messerschmitt diorama. The diorama contains the Tamiya M4A Sherman and the M4A1 Sherman and the Tamiya Infantry set. The diorama is 1/48. The grass is made with paintbrushes cut up and then glued on the base. I then airbrush it till I got the color I wanted. So this will be in a contest next week in the diorama section. Maybe I win something, maybe not we'll see. :wink:

Hey Dan!! Great Work!! I like it! I too am working on a 1/48 scale Diorama. By the way, how many paintbrushes did you use and how much did that cost you? Good luck with your contest. Let us know if you win anything.

hi very good diorama and good quality work just one minor criticism non of your figures weapons have slings but apart from that a good job

Hi guys,

I'm glad you like it.

Dave: I used 7 brushes of 50 cents each so that's still pretty good wouldn't you say because the diorama is still fairly large. It was alot of work but gave me great satisfaction. I'll be sure to tell you guys if I win something.

Simon: Yeah I know I completely forgot. I was going to do that but I just forgot. Thanks for reminding me.

Hey Daniël
Extraordinary done!!! It's really beautiful!

David

Nice layout of the scene. It is truly a nice diorama.

Let us know if you win. Good luck in the competition

So was the contest this past weeekend? How'd you do?

No it's this Sunday. Will post when it's over the contest.

Daniel

Hi
Instead of paint brushes you could try what I use for long grass.
I use Sisal string it can be cut to any length you want & it also excepts all types of paint. It's also very cheap.
Used it many times.

Thanks Shaun. Will look into that.

How did you make the bushes ?

Hi Alex,

I made the bushes out of Seafoam. You can buy this in any hobby shop. I recently saw it a Art Shop too. Hope this helps.

Daniel

"Seafoam" ... I searched in all dictionaries available and found nothing. What does it mean ? Can you post a picture, or something like that ?

Here's picture from a Belgium online company which sells this stuff too.



Other modelers will know what I mean with seafoam.

Daniel

Seafoam is sometimes called Lichen. I've even seen it packaged in a hobby store as Spanish Moss (nothing like the actual Spanish Moss hanging from trees)
