hello
just a little update
i have done a few bits and bobs like done some touching up on my tank and thier crew but i have mostly concentrated on the ruins and the cobbles which were a pain because i had to sculpt them on one by one
i still need to finish off sculpting a figure and other detials and also the base
once again sorry for the bad photos
anyways here is my result






thanks
curtis
please tell me what you think off it

That street is awesome man! Is it plaster?

Hi, I like the overall scene you got there and the T34 commander is a neat figure!
Some ideas I'll throw out is to frame the door and ensure it's cut straight. Maybe use balsa wood or add brick to make the door frame.
This is what I did with some old painting brushes to 'Stamp' out the Magic Sculpt cobblestreet on my Berlin Sewer Diorama which takes time still but not as bad I think.

Hi Curtis

The street looks pretty good to me but i had to laugh (forgive me) when i read you complain about doing these few cobbles one by one.

Ok, two critics now

This ruin is supposed to be a former house, isn't it? The remains of the roof at least show that.

Your interior groundwork is wrong then.

Or is it some sort of gate?
Anyway, in both cases the walls are to thin and irregular.

I applaud your effort to scratchbuild the ruin nonetheless

Hey Curtis, coming along pretty good so far. Another thing most people don't realize is that a slate roof is real heavy and not as sturdy falling as shingles. Most of the slate because of its weight, would have broken off upon hitting the ground from a fall that high. There is always the exception though. To be more realistic, break off some and leave some dangling by one nail. Have some broken in half length and width wise and sitting crooked and the ones on the ground with the bottom edges cracked off. On all roofing the next upward section always overlaps the one below Don't forget to leave nails sticking out where the slate broke off. Hope this helps. bob d.

thanks for your replys
well this is my first 1 35 scale diorama so im just starting off with something easy and trying to get the right proportions off everything, im going to try and incorperate all these details you have told me
thank for you comments
