where do you get your gray foam board at.

I get it from an ebay seller in the UK but unfortunately they don't post abroad, if you are in the UK I can give you the link.

That is looking very nice. I like that wood look as its a nice contrast with the brick.

Those wood shelves look really good. They definitely work as gun cabinets.

I have carved the door for the armoury, after speaking with the client he is happy for me to start painting.  With the cabinets he actually wants me to paint them metallic.

Re: RCWCreations diorama's: Teletraan-1

While watching classic G1 Transformers cartoons, I found myself tinkering with some foam and before I realised it was taking shape into Teletraan 1.

Using layers of 20 mm thick foam to create the console and monitor, I have sanded down the foam to achieve the angles that make up this computer. The basic shape is done but still a fair way to go!

While watching the classic cartoons, in realised Teletraan's monitor angled up. So to achieve this, I cut diagonally across the back of the base and glued the two parts together.

I added a back piece for Teletraan so it can sit flush up against a wall and then built up creating the plummet to Teletraan with a lip.  Using card to create the sides for Teletraan and the insides of the two front alcoves.

Thinking that I had finished the build until I got a couple of figures in front of Teletraan and realised it need another layer of foam. I cut a piece of 10 mm, stuck it to the under side of Teletraan and then sanded the middle until it blended the middle.

Now all that I need to do is start carving and adding the detail.

Great job on both of your dios. I am really liking that Teletraan one.

I've etched the detail onto Teletraan 1.

With the scoring done, I’ve chopped up an expired credit card and used it to create panels and buttons across the surface of Teletraan.

I then took small pieces of foam and sculpted them into three devices commonly seen on Teletraan.

Then to finish off I have added the Autobot insignia and glued it to a central spot on the plummet of Teletraan.

Now the computer is done, I am going to create a diorama with couple of consoles for Teletraan to sit in before painting.
