Hi all!
Here is my latest build. Working on it definitely took longer than I expected because it initially was conceived just as stand for Brdm-2 and eventually turned into something bigger. All except vehicle, metal barrel and figures is built from scratch, there is also a tree which is a root of some bush. I poured a little over 200ml epoxy resin and I have not painted it because the color of the background was enough to give the impression of a green-toxic morass. Namplate was elektroetched from aluminium metal sheet. I hope diorama depicts a dark atmosphere of Stalker.

Best regards
Srdjan










Details:

Very nice! Great work and loads of lovely little details....

brilliant work. certainly sets the scene of desolation

I agree. Your attention to the little details is exceptional. The newspaper is extremely convincing as is the Brdm.

Really interesting scene. Everything looks really organic too. Well done.

As a fan of both the games and nice model work, this is really well done.

Beautiful! Toxic and desolate.

I have had a similar idea with the Mig Fururistic Russian figure and the head of an M901, but I am having trouble sourcing the figure.
Which figure did you use?

Mike

I think the figure is an ant miniature figure

Brilliant concept and execution.The groundwork and rusted vehicle effects are top class.
Gary

... and again a great setting for the Stalker Figures.

Excellent realization, well done!

Thank you all for the comments I'm glad you like it!

gogs007 was right, figure is Ant Miniatures Stalker.

Cheers!

Great work! The drab colors really do add to the overall mood. The dead tree looks great.

Fabulous, great eerie atmosphere.
I just. Love the way you've captured the degradation on the BRDM tyres.
Rog.

OUTSTANDING !!!!!

Wish one of the console companies would bring stalker to the mass market, might be less of a spooky game if we new more about it!
But this model is amazing love it very chernobylesc, i particly like the decaying tyres.
FACT:- Did you know you can PAY to fish in the river surrounding chernobyl? you do need a giger counter with you and only for 40min at a time then you have to be decontaminated!

Very Post Apocalyptic, ( I love that genre )...

Everything looks great together, very believable scenario.
BRDM is weathered perfectly.

Real nice job man...

Looks an eerie scene. Well done full of admiration, especially the swamp.

I have done a STALKER figure myself in the past and I love the genre- this is one ass-kickingly good dio. The staging is just brilliant with the withered tree in the background leading you down the old jetty/bridge to the figure and the yellow Radiation warning sign. The BRDM-2 is a marvel of weathering all on its own and I particularly like the way it is posed on top of all the debris in the water with the belly wheels falling down into the water. And yes, the water itself! The way you have designed the base really just works brilliantly with the water and the bits and pieces underneath it like the newspaper really adds to the effect. The small bird and waste water pipe are really nice additions too. The muted tones used throughout and the drab clothing on the STALKER figure again add to the gloom and the overrall effect of the scene. This is a stunner of a dio Srdjan- you should be really proud of it- and thanks for sharing it with us!

Thank you, Srdjan

Hi Srdjan,

don't know how I could have missed this back then....but I did

The little scene is absolutely outstanding! The atmosphere, the fantastic weathering....impressive!!

Thanks for posting!

Cheers

Thanks everyone for your very nice comments. I appreciate it very much. I hope to soon start a new post-apocalyptic diorama. Cheers

Very nice dio. Well done on everything. Also, really fun game

Kinda late now, but I just thought of this: a couple of dead fish floating in the water. And while I'm going there, if the dog is not wearing protection won't he die?
