This is my first attempt at a diorama and i was wondering if anybody could advise me on how to make to make some simple things. The diorama its going to be 1/35 and i am trying to keep it simple by just having a dirt road running through the center and a meadow on one of the sides. One the opposite side i am thing of putting a series of ruined stone walls were the germans are going to be hiding. I need some tips on how to make a dirt road, how to make a meadow with high grass, and how to build a stone wall. Comment back if you have any advice. Thanks

Hello. I not that experienced in building dioramas, but heres some info that Ive picked up, hope it helps.

I not sure what the brush is called - its (I use it) for painting exterior walls, it has tan coloured tapering bristles of about 1 1/2 inch which make quite good long dried grass.

plusmodel have a range of diorama accessories which look pretty good - i've not seen them in the flesh yet (its on my to do list!) I've been thinking of using their paving sets to construct a stone wall.

I'd be interested in some tips on producing a dirt road!
