This is my last diorama. The buildings were done with plaster, inspired in Tunisian houses. The wooden parts were cut with laser. The figures are a mix of many manufacturers. The jerrycan were done with plastic. Something around 1:1,2.

Have to agree with the others .... love the jerry can base. I like the way its weathered around the cap and handle as well. Smart. Very nice dio as well. The blue and red details really draw in the viewer ... especailly as there is a risk that the viewer gets caught admiring the base ... but theres plenty going on to look at. Nice figures and good overall standard. Very memorable dio ... definately one that wont be forgotten for a while.

I have to agree, with everybody. Great, original idea, fro the base! The fountain keeps drawing my eye. And, well it should. Just exceptional work!

Thank you everybody
Toni, the Lion head is a toy (that I stole from my children, by the way, it was a lioness). I did the lion mane with epoxi and the small lions are from an old pirate ship model.
The falling water is sprue and the waves were done with a 3d relief paint (named acrilex here in Brazil)
