Hello guys,

I've started to build a diorama for my last model. I've first prepapare the wood base with high density polystyrene, Styrodur, and put the frame with a sheet of balsa wood....

Now I will proceed to paint the frame with black color...

Stay tuned !! Updates coming next..

Cheers

Many thanks guy !

A little update... I will make the ground: I found a product, called "Modelform", from Amati that seems a sort of chalk; it can be mixed with water, acrilic colors (in this case sand color), rocks, stones, sand and a few drops of with glue. Once obtained, the compound is coated on the surface with a spatula.
Now I'm going to work on it !!

Cheers
Massimo

Many thanks Mike and James..

In this step I painted the base further, but unfortunately Reeves acrylic paint leave a glossy finish and I hade to spray some coats of matt clear.

Stay tuned, another update will follows soon.

Cheers :cheer:
