<!-- / icon and title --> <!-- message --> <!-- google_ad_section_start -->I don't plan to do a lot more of this burnt fabric stuff on the wings,just enough to get the flash over scenario across to the viewer. I don't want it to look overdone.
Speaking about overdone,I am again facing the old problem of when to stop.
Besides finishing up the landscaping and maybe putting a little junk out the back of the hangar, maybe I should stop here.There are no ground vehicles or figures outside the hangar, as I have done with the Jenny, but somehow I feel the the dog and airplane are enough.The R/H side of the hangar is plexiglass and the front is to be left open for an unobstructed view into the hangar ,so there really is no room now for any other large items.The fact that it is a military scene would also cut down on the "junk lying around" factor.

On the other hand maybe a small wheelbarrow leaning up against one of the hangar doors.......
 
Absolutely outstanding..... Beautiful craftsmanship JohnReid...:applause::applause:


What patience and steady hands it must take......
 
Wow John if not for the base showing in that first pic, I thought that was a real pic with a model inside it somewhere only to realize I was looking at the model. Great job
 
<!-- / icon and title --> <!-- message --> I love playing around with the lighting to get different effects.Boxed dioramas are best for this and with todays digital cameras you can get instant feedback on the results and play with it until you are satisfied.I often will just point the camera and shoot with very little setup,sometimes the results can be quite surprising. It is really easy on the pocketbook to take multiple shots and then erase the ones you don't like.
I find that I often like the pictures more than the diorama itself.
