I’ve had a busy weekend, I started to work on the side. Using 5 mm foam board for frame, 10 mm insulation board for depth. I used 5 mm board for the reverse wall, carving the wall slates to match the ones on the front wall.

Above the door I have added a cable run, moved the wall brace to the other side. Before I start fitting together, I will be adding a small wall on the opposite side to hide the join of the front wall. Then I’ll be adding a roof to support the LEDs I’ll be fitting to walls.

I will admit I got all my predator dvds out this weekend and watched. I am gonna watch all the Aliens vs Predators starting today. Off to share the latest.

I've just purchased AvP on DVD along with Prometheus and Covenant, looking forward to getting them!

I realized that up until now my Alien vs Predator diorama was missing a Predator, so let me rectify that with these test shots.

I created the third wall, using the same technique as I’ve used throughout this build, with the combination of 5mm foam board and 10mm insulation board.

The next step would be paint these sections before gluing together, then working on the roof.

I watched all my Aliens vs Predator DVDs yesterday after seeing this. Man that A v P Requiem is some crazy flick. Seeing that Alien Predator (did they ever make an action figure of that one?) grab hold of those gal's head in the maternity ward was freaky. Still I love seeing some Predator and Aliens battling it out. Great work here. It is really taking shape. Off to share this and the site.

Thanks mate.  I've just purchased both AvP's films and the latest parts of the Alien saga.  Guess what I'll hopefully be watching this weekend!  I don't know if Neca ever did make one but if not I might have to give it a go.

Now that would be one cool custom. I can't wait to see if there is a new film in that franchise. Surely we will see em fighting again.



or even make a Predalien Queen:

While waiting for the snow to past before I can get outside to start painting this diorama. I’ve started to reworking and sanding each wall. The left wall, I’ve added a layer of thin bolsa wood over the foam board frame.
I’ve also started working of the cable run over the middle and right wall.

Looks good. Hope the weather gets better so you can add the paint work. This one is really getting awesome. Off to share.

I’ve had a very productive do with my diorama due an unplanned snow day yesterday, deciding this needed a roof for Aliens to drop down and pull marines up to their doom.

I cut a piece of foam to the size of the diorama, then evenly spaced squares were cut out, the frame edges sanded. To make it look like it’s a complete roof from the outside, I added a second layer on top of the frame, then two corners. The roof was sanded and glued together.

A few more roof pictures.

You’ll be pleased to see that I’ve started applying paint. I’ve reached the point where I need to paint each section individually before I can start gluing it all together. The first layer on the floor, doors and three walls with a combination of a dark and medium grey.
