The final box


Job's Modelling

703 views

After building the 3D sketch the final diorama box had to be build. I use for that a MDF “baseboard.” A friend of us cut baseboards for the coming time. Don’t be afraid you will see only this kind of diorama’s in the future. My granddaughter (6 years old now) asked me to build a railway on which a loco could run. So somewhere in the future I have to build a diorama in an APA box in which a train can shuffle around.

I bought her in the past a Toby from Hornby. This loco is the reflection of my interest for the Wisbech and Upwell Tramway.

 

I made a view adjustments for the final box. The sides have a small angle towards the back. I hope this will create some more depth into the diorama. I also created some supports for the road already.

 

For the sides I used a Scalescenes sky. This was published in his blog about his own model railway.

For printing I used this time Digital Fine Art Paper for Photography and Art from Innova. Their FibaPrint White Matt is a good choice for me. It gave a great print.

I made the black and white structures fitting in the final box. In this way it is possible to avoid mistakes during constructing the final pieces.

Because I want to try a little different way for constructing the Scalescenes building my next entry can be a little later than you are used from me.

I like to follow some advices I got.

 

I hope it is worth waiting for.

 

 

Regards,

Job

Look forward to seeing what you come up with, Job - both for Station Rd and your granddaughter!

 

That last shot is really excellent, I think.

Thanks.

 

This one is really a challenge for me. Trying out new materials and techniques.

That's one of the nice things about your approach, I think. Always trying new things.

Mikkel thanks to one of your comments I found an excellent blog. I believe you also can find a lot of useful information in the blog of David Neat. 

As you said some entries before the shops under arches look like a film scene. Then I found this information about making "models for film / tv work"
