Those signs are awesome. Just enough of a touch to give it added realism. Thanks for showing us your process.

The signs look really good. I can see what you mean by pallets and barrels crowding the scene. Thanks for sharing the "aging" process - hope you didn't use an expensive tea:)

At the time of this writing, I have been summoned for Jury Service which is why it has taken me over a week to post these pictures.

I have used three different toy genre's show that this is an all-around piece for most toy lines.

This is just another great diorama that lends itself to so many different action figure lines. I hope your jury duty goes quickly and you can get back to some new projects.

Off to share!

The dio turned out great.
The weathering looks very realistic.

The final product is fantastic! I like that you showed different properties with it, they all work well. You're only missing Ghostbusters:)

Re: RCWCreations diorama's: Rooftop

For the past 3 weeks, I have been on jury service with another 2 weeks still to go! Because of that, I have not been in the right frame of mind to build and wanted to be near my family (not a fun trial!)  Today I broke that mindset and started up on my latest commission piece. I've been asked to build a rooftop to fit a deltof.

This morning before leaving for court I cut the four side pieces (2 14" x 6" & 2 12" x 6") with another four to which were glued onto the first four. When I returned this evening, I cut notches into the two larger walls, added magnetic tape, and added the side pieces. Notches were cut into the inner pieces and a roof piece cut giving me the basic shape to work on.

The next steps are to build a ledger running around the top before starting on the brickwork.

Sounds like an awful trial. Hope you can get through that mentally sound.

Nice start on the new dio. Off to the front pages.

Thanks mate, it is not a pleasant one but luckily we have been given a paid day off from the trial and look what I got up to!

I've had a productive afternoon with my day off on this build. I started off by adding the initial brick lines going around the sides of the build. Then to hide the gap caused by using magnetic tape, I have added cornerstones to each side using a 6 mm foam board cut to 1" × 1" and 2" x 1".

I then added the rooftop ledge, 4 pieces of 30 mm board cut to 1.5" running the length of each piece. Once they were glued into place, I marked and scored out the brickwork and weathered them.

The next steps will be to add a rooftop building and work out how it will fix the base before finishing the underneath of the base.

Wow, that is looking great! I really like the two-tone corner block pattern a lot. Glad you were able to get a "break" day. Jury is hard because you can see the very worst of people up-close and personal, its heartbreaking.

Your brickwork is just fantastic. It just looks real.
