Hi...

I finally decided to follow the Diorama way for my models. There is so much to learn... so I was wodnering if there are any good sites with hints and tutorials abouts the basic techniques for Dioramas, besides the excelent http://www.digitaldioramas.com which is great but in quality but short in quantity of information.

Doc Dio's site is a good starting point. He has written some really good step-by-step articles on making dioramas. Hopefully this will help you.

Marty hit it. Doc Dio's is a good start.
Reading the Dio forum here is very informational (although it can be slow if you just go thread by thread).
I recommend Shep Paines books, they are very comprehensive.

huh.... I still this is the best site to learn.... hmmm maybe I must write some step-by-step articles then....

Let's see what I can do. In a couple of weeks I'll start building again (it's too hot and humid over here right now) and I'll do some beginners articles with it.

Be patient and...... besides Armorama, Doc Dio's is a very good alternative

Hi,

If you prefer you have Docs Dio article in portuguese - Construindo um diorama militar at the IPMS Curitiba site.


Apareça pela secção em português.

Danny,
I'm still looking forward to see your article on the green hanging plants on your splash dio (or did I miss that ? )
