Hello folks,
thanks Jon, well I'm happy with the result, hope It will look good on the dio.

Well today's update ;
I've almost finished the building. I've chosen to do a kind of mosaic tiling inside, to highlight the "clinical" feeling of the building.
The next part is the lettering, then I'll begin the painting on the sanatorium.







I've alos began the groundwork.
I'll talk a bit more about it tomorrow, for the "groundwork making" SBS,
now it does look like nothing, but we will see...



Well, feedback welcome!
Cheers,
Alexandre.

Nice detail work on the tiles, I think this second version is a big improvement!

Hello Seb! Fine, you're welcome. Sometimes things aren't easy to exlain in English...
Hi Martyn, well thanks as always, for Part 2 & 3, they're titled "Another fun fair" and "the graveyard".
That's some clue...

Hi Jon, thanks, hope everyone thinking the same!
I'm currently struggling with some things in the building, have to delay a bit the groundwork SBS, cause I've had to redo some of the building parts I broke doing improvement.
Pics of the finished sanatorium this afternoon or evening (well, french time, it's 9:30 AM here)...

Well it sure looks good -though i never thought your previous effort was bad enough to be dumped.
I hope, it won't be another kitty box diorama though! (I have some doubts when i see the last picture..
see you later

Sorry I didn't get to Armorama in months. This is SPLENDID work ! the moist is almost dripping off your walls. No worries that anyone will touch your diorame : it looks radioactive
Really creepy. The green patches, the torn paint, cracked tiles, rotten vegetation... I'd throw in some more broken glass and garbage, but that's a matter of taste. I wouldn't know how to make this dio look any better than you make it look. respect !
