A quick Chally 2 Diorama

[kingpin141]

 Now me necks better, a quicky build. My eldests school 6th form has a uniformed services course (He's applying for the Bootnecks. Daddy is very proud indeed. Anyway back to the plot). I met his tutors the other day and now they want to put some of me models on display. Never missing an opportunity to show off im making a quick diorama to put my fav model on. The uparmoured Challenger 2. Here's the basic layout. An MDF frontage on wood base board. Both will be lovingly smothered with Polyfilla and painted. It'll be called "I think you've taken a wrong turn Sir"






The door and window will have McDonalds coffee stirrer door and shutters.

Very nice!!! Looking forward to the endgame!!

A productive evening indeed. The building frontage is done all bar weathering. I'd like to say a huge thankyou to me mate Albert ( You dirty old man), who kindly donated the roller stylee door off his expensive shaver set. Makes a beautiful garage door. The rest is made of bamboo skewers for the awning support, cleaning cloth for the awning itself, coffee stirrers for the window shutter and polyfilla for the render.









Note for nex time. Polyfilla first then attachments.

 Another productive evening. That's the building nearly done and the basic groundwork. Another thanks to Albert. I didn't have enough Polyfilla so he rode to the rescue with his instagrab adhesive/filler type thingy. How it takes paint etc remains to be seen. And finally some stretched sprue, painted brass and waiting to be cut into 3mm lengths and used as spenting casings on the street.

Evenin all. Tonight i've made a bit of rubbish for the street. Crate made from me trusty MacDs stirrers and bamboo skewers. The bin bags are Milliput with some scrap plasticard and wood off cut to give them an irregular shapes wrapped in real bin liner



And finally, reinforcements have arrived

[Leon]

Nice work on the street and rubbish KP .The chaps look like they got some heavy duty reinforcements.

That's me four day diorama done. I apologise for the quality of the pics. Rubbish phone camera and kitchen worktop as studio. The Chally now has a driver and a U.S. Army ration box as more rubbish courtesy of one of me Dads old PBR models.
