The second tower is made similar to the first tower. The top is made from a muffin container.

I have made a round air vent using a pair of pastry cutter. This is glued to the conduit on the right wall.

I just have a couple of extra pipes to the right wall before completing this build and can start painting.

Mixed up a medium grey for the walls, when it had dried I have started to use a light grey on the panels and pelmets of the towers. A little silver on the console to see what it looked like.

I've decided to go for a metallic look, similar to 2016 interpretation in the 3 part episode Wanted: Bebop and Rocksteady.

The two tall machines I've covered the darker grey with PlastiKote Pewter, which has given it a lovely metallic look. The gate I've painted in Chrome (was supposed to be silver) and the cables with Games Workshops Leadbelcher.

The walls have a coat of Pewter over them. A light blue was used as a highlighter for devices around the gate.

The floor has been given a coat of Pewter, along with the metal parts of the console. I have edged all metal surfaces with Games Workshops Stormhost Silver and glued the large computer console to the left wall. Edged the diorama with Chrome.

What remains to be done is the portal and to paint the outside of the diorama in black.

With the help of my daughter who assisted in painting portal effect. With this in place, it completes the build of my TMNT Technodrome diorama.

My final pictures to follow.

With the Technodrome complete, back to these pieces.

Painted the walls of the Loft Apartment, gave the walls a base coat of light grey. When it had dried I added burnt umber to the grey mixture, then given the walls a second coat. The door I have painted a light blue.

Next step is to start painting the accessories I have made for this.

Re: RCWCreations diorama's: Castle Room

Painted the walls of the Castle Room, gave the walls a base coat of light grey. When it had dried I added blue to the grey mixture, then given the walls a second coat.

The two doors where undercoated with Burnt Umber, base coated with Games Workshops Dryad Bark, shaded with Agrax Earth shade and then layered with Gorthor Brown. The metal of the door was painted Balthasar Gold, shaded with Agrax and then layered with Sycorax bronze.

I made a dark grey mix and using a sponge, gently dabbed the sponge across the walls and floor of this diorama.

Once dried I added white to the grey mix to work into the cracks of the stone.

After gluing the doors into place I have dry brushed Games Workshops Longbeard Grey over areas of the surfaces.

All that is left is to paint the outside of the walls black and to make the walls and floor wipeable.

WIP on the third diorama for InspirEd. I finished marking up the bricks in the third wall and taking one of the round ended pottery tools, I have scored out the bricks. I have also cut the top layer of board out on the third wall to make another door for this piece.
