Another excellent diorma.
The damage and the weathering looks very realistic.

After completing the last Church Ruin I was asked to build another. As you can see I’ve started work on the outer walls and floor.

As you can see I have marked out the tall windows, the door and the brick work on floor and back wall.

The long windows, where cut out and sanded down using my rotary tool, the doorway was also removed.  A piece of 6mm black foam board was cut for the archway to the door.

I have also been asked to make a street light as a bolt on to a clients existing diorama . The street light is made from 6 mm foam board strips, the centres sanded out for the LED's cable. I glued the two strips together, sanded it down giving it shape. Repeating the same process with corner and the lights neck. A small piece of foam cut for the light cover and using a small plastic tube to complete the street light.

I have also been asked to make a removable base for the light. Using both 6 & 10 mm foam boards, glued together and paving stones etched in the foam with a cable run drilled through the foam. I might redo this base to make sure the light fits slots into it more securely.

Sorry about the sideways pictures lol!

Thanks Ron!

I decided in the end to completely remake the base, I was just not happy with it.  The new one is double the size of the original with a hole big enough for the streetlight to sit securely in it with a cable run drilled in between the two layers of foam board.  Pavement flags and curb stones where etched into the board, then damage was applied to the flags.

Satisfied with how this turned out, I applied the first coat of paint to the streetlight and base.

While the Streetlight was drying I turned my attention to my other commission.

I started with the left wall with tall windows, as with the previous Church Ruin diorama I made, I cut a piece of 6 mm foam board to fit over the wall and then cut out three arches which will house the three tall windows. I cut a couple of 10" x 1" strips of 6 mm to go either side of the window, 1" x 1" brick work were etched into these strips before applying damage to them. All the pieces were glued to together before cutting the top down as I did in the previous model.

The back wall as with the former I etched in 1" x 1" brick work  before marking and cutting the top of the wall off as I did before.  Like the before all the broken pieces will be reused as rubble for the final piece.
