Hi Nicola,

Nice piece. I really like the wing, some excellent scratch building. The ground work is very well made.

It is a very interesting way to display your diorama’s, I would not have the courage to tilt my diorama even if everything was properly secured.

Regards,
Jenseits

Thanks Nam Seng-il, I feel very happy and flattered that you feel touched by my work

Thanks Karl, yep I hope to start a trend with those boxes!

Thanks Vladimir, actually the bottiom of these box is removable with some small screws, it's very convenient for maintenance.
I have been told that at some fairs, the judges take the dioramas and turn them upside down, if anything falls on the floor then the dio is disqualified, well I have been shaking these dioramas so that I never have some small bits lying at the bottom!

Hey Nicolas, Came out real nice. I like shadow/boxed dios alot. The thing I like the most, I often do in my vignettes. The way your palm plants extend beyond the border. To me it takes the story go past the border and puts it in your world of reality, an extention for the veiwer to look for more of the story, kind of like turning the page of your imagination. Great job!

well Bob those are some nice compliments! About those plants, i really didn't see myself cutting them so that would fit on the borders of the scene. if i had done so, i would have had to build the box near the borders of the diorama and I feared -as it's a small one- that not enough light would get in..

Thank you so much Zaidi
