Worked on finding a background for the Diorama. I think this rolling hills photos will work. Now I just need to make a 22 in printable version. ![](https://photos.smugmug.com/Model-Cars/Car-Builds/Revell-1-87-Big-Boy-Locomotive/i-PZdqrpZ/0/C53vKp7GgSMLn2dxqHPxHrsw25WCBNzSpbWjkxJgP/XL/IMG_5846-XL.jpg)

We are like 95% done. Just need the last set of wheels to pop on, and the brass bell in front. I also want to work on a better background. The photo is perfect I just need a larger print of it to make it look seamless. I am pretty happy with this though, I cant lie haha. ![](https://photos.smugmug.com/Model-Cars/Car-Builds/Revell-1-87-Big-Boy-Locomotive/i-3nNTWqZ/0/Cp4XdwKpK4w4fbkD83DVM5ZDQnsnzgMXXv2P63FC/X3/IMG_5875-X3.jpg)

I am happy to hear that. It was a unplanned step so I am happy to hear it looks good. I was researching photos for detail painting and I saw the smoke and was like hmmmmm.. I think I know an easy way to do that.

I have to agree, the smoke is killer. And the background looks the part too. This is a very cool build.

The whole thing is phenomenal. The finish, base and background all come together to make and incredibly realistic display. Then that smoke sends it into another dimension again. Get those wheels on so that it can be featured as the Outstanding Build soon (Hint hint Joe) ![](https://www.icegif.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/08/icegif-209.gif)

Superb! Best smoke i’ve seen 👍 that really finishes off the presentation. I agree with you, the full length background is needed this is so good.

What a fun build to follow along with and then again on the turn out James. Man, you've definitely knocked this one out of the park with all of the attention to detail, base work and effects used throughout. That smoke just puts a cherry on top of an already stellar build, and I can see where you'd be happy with the outcome of this. Just beautiful work all around bud. ![](https://imagizer.imageshack.com/img923/4482/S8FEd4.gif)
