My first time doing a building diorama. Getting closer to finish. Still have to do the interior and some minor stuff on the outside then a bit more weathering. The paper on the inside of the windows are wallpaper I havent trimmed yet.

Hi Tapper, it looks great! Furthermore, it's your first! Awesome stuff... what kit is that? Or did you scratch built the building?

Tapper, looking good so far were you thinking about doing some mortar between the bricks? If you should a thinned cream color or old concrte will do just fine. If you thin it to the right consistancey it will flow between the bricks easily. Good job looking forward to the finished product!

That looks good. You' ve done a great job on the weathering and detailing the building. Perhaps some more rubble and debris...it looks a bit too clean.
Good job

Tapper, looks good so far! I did a dio with the same base, it's a very nice kit, lots of detail, can't wait to see the end result!
