耳边没有了炮火,眼前没有了硝烟,它们已成为了讲给子孙的故事。
阳光似乎变得更加的灿烂,一切仿佛又回到了许久以前的平静,生活重新开始了…

做情景有两件事是必需要考虑的,故事和布局。一个好的故事,或者说是好的创意,能牢牢地吸引住观众。它不像是看书,观众只要跟着故事情节走,就能达到高潮,而情景模型的故事,作者只是开了个头,故事的发展、结局需要观众去发掘,所以一个故事的好坏在很大程度上决定了这个作品的成败。
布局是为故事服务的,好的咖啡需要好的伴侣。当你有了完整的构思后,思考一下什么样的布局能最大限度的表现你的故事,如何达到完美结合。
一切都准备就绪后,先不急着动手做,你先看看自己设计的这些,比如车辆、建筑、人物等,是否能熟练制作,能体现自己的最高水平,如果答案是否定的,最好能做些适当的修改来适合自己的制作水平,我觉得这样才能把一件作品做到最好。

那我来讲讲这次的作品。我不太喜欢严肃的故事,总觉得做军事模型再加一个严肃的故事结构,有点紧张过度了。至于这个作品讲述了什么样的故事嘛,相信仔细看了第一段的你已经进入状态了。
图1、图2展示了整个情景的布局。可能会有人问,为什么不选用大一点的车辆,比如251或三突之类的呢?因为整个作品是以人物为主线,里面的车辆只是作为陪衬出现的,如果选用大点的车辆,可能会喧宾夺主。另外,使用大的车辆会使情景左右分量分配不均匀。在此种类型的情景中,各种类型的吉普车也是不错的选择。
地台采用了双层结构,为了避免木质地台吸收石膏水分后变形,可以先在内框上刮层原子灰,另外,高层中最好以发泡材料填充,以免地台过重。
石膏干透后,可以采用几种方法上基础色:模型漆、水粉颜料、色粉,大家可以根据自己的喜好选择,这里我用的是色粉。用刀片刮取足量的色粉(颜色最好偏深一些,这样更容易出层次),用田宫的水性溶剂开稀后涂抹到地台上。(图3)
作品中高层部位设计的是片草地。草地在制作时,最好不要只是做些草在上面,那样会显的有些假,适当的加些灌木、野花、藤蔓等,可以大大提升仿真度。你可以多多去野外看看,会有切身体会的。图4中展示的是我收集的一些制作植物的材料,一般在模型店和干花店都能轻松买到。
图5、图6中,草和灌木已基本粘好,布置的时候注意一下疏密、高低。把车子放上去看看效果。图7
由于为情景设计的时间是春夏之交,所以草地和灌木都是绿油油的,我想这恰好能凸现故事的主题,绿色的草地不仅会和残旧的车辆形成对比,同时也预示着新生活的开始。为草地着色使用的是郡士油性漆,先在一些阴暗处喷些深绿色,然后逐渐用浅一点的绿色喷在突出的部分,模拟阳光照在植物上的感觉。地台下层的路面用粉彩着色,土黄、褐色、浅灰色、白色这几个是经常用到的颜色,用水性溶剂开稀后,同样是由深至浅的进行涂抹。图8、图9
情景中选用了树脂人物和田宫的动物套材,值得一提的是,田宫的这套动物质量非常好,细节很到位,价格也不贵,喜欢制作情景的朋友不妨收一套。
人物和动物的上色都是选用的水性漆。目前制作人物模型的朋友大多是以油性漆打底,油画颜料做效果的,我以前也是用的此种方法,后来因为油画颜料干的太慢而舍弃了。现在选择了VALLEJO的水性漆,它的两个特性,使我坚定不移的选择使用它。一是颜色鲜艳,模型毕竟是模型,暗淡、灰蒙蒙的颜色很难让人喜欢它,特别是人物模型上。使用油画颜料就特别容易发生这类状况,不熟练的混色总使得模型暗淡无光。而VALLEJO的水性漆在处理明暗关系时,并不是采用混色的手法(其实也无法混色,因为第一层颜料干后是基本无法再溶解与第二层进行混色的),而是用颜色叠加的办法,用深浅颜色反复叠加来达到明暗过度的效果,所以即使模型上某些部分会因调色失败显的脏,但整体的效果还是很明亮的。
还有个特性就是干的快,不需要等待,即刻就能看到效果好坏。不像用油画颜料,做好效果后得等很长一段时间,干后颜色还有些差别,修改后还需要等待很长一段时间。最受不了这个了。
这个作品中人物和三头猪用了3个多小时就制作完成了。图10
人物上好色后就能固定到地台上了(图11)。位置选择的不同最后的效果也会有所不同,所以思考如何摆放是非常有必要的。比如此次作品的三头猪的摆放,大猪的位置略微靠前,头部稍稍伸出地台,这和后面的农夫形成了动势的连接,整体感觉就没那么“静态”了(图12)。另外一头黑屁股的小猪,它调皮的钻到了草丛里,这恰好能打破一条直线的规律摆放,同时也能给情景带来些情趣。
我们再来说说车辆的制作。此次上色应该来说是学习性上色,以前没有制作过损坏抛弃的车辆,在技法和颜色的使用上都不成熟,所以希望读者能放宽一下要求,呵呵。我先是用郡士油性漆打底(锈红色),再用VALLEJO的水性漆(浅沙褐色)不规则的涂抹,尽量使它看起来像是油漆脱落的样子,接着再用油性漆画掉漆,基本制作到这就算完成了。
旧化同样是普遍做法,渍洗、滤镜,粉彩(天然土)。在这里我得反思一下制作失误的地方,天然土(粉彩)的颜色选择上,我使用了几种暖色系的颜色,如MIG的P028,虽然是土色,但颜色偏红,当再加上一层锈色的时候,整体颜色就更红了。而实际的报废车辆,整体颜色更偏深褐色(特别是灼烧过的),只有少许刚开始氧化生锈的的部分才会出现才适合使用到MIG的P025。参考图1、参考图2能很清楚的说明这一点。
图13~图18为各细节图
图19~图21为各角度全景图
这次的作品没有做什么考证,制作时间也不长,大概在20小时左右。其实,可能你不加什么蚀刻片,树脂件,做出的成品也能达到你所期望的要求,特别是对于新手来说,能迅速并成功的完成一件单件作品或情景作品,对于继续之后的模型制作有着非常大的鼓励作用。模型它只是模型而已,抛开偏见,做自己想做的模型。
另外这类小型情景非常适合用来消灭堆积,我想,家里放上各种各样的情景作品,会比堆积盒子来的更有装饰效果。

this time ,i post a diorama that i make it on 2006.And you can see some chinese explication at last .I want to share mine ideas and feels with everybody.thans for looking~~

All I can see is the ???'s as well, but Babelfish was still able to translate it!!!
But typical for Babelfish, the question marks seem to make more sense, at least to me.
Here's the first line...
"Nearby the ear did not have the fire, at present did not have the gunsmoke, they have become said for descendants' story. "

Beautiful work, I always look forward to your posts!!!

Wow! Tremendous layout. The farmer figure is proving very popular!
Your finish is great, and the shrubs/bushes are look very authentic in the way they are randomly placed; although I think I'd be the only one saying I prefer the lighter grass in earlier pics as opposed to the full-on greenery... Seems the bushes provided a good contrast to the greeny-brown grasses to me!
Good effect with the dead grasses growing inside the tank hull...
Cheers

Thanks for sharing.

Yes it is nice work, but the question that seems to be on everyones mind right now sadly has nothing to do with your dio. That question is: Are you the same person who is selling illegal counterfeit figures on e-bay??

and no guys I don't really expect an answer.
