Hey all,

Just wanted to say hi and show my last Diorama. I am always looking to improve and this looked like a good place to start.

Figures for this are done in 28mm and won 2nd place on an online contest.
Here is "Raising the Spirit"

Cool what kind of materials did you use?

Thanks.

All stone work (minus the sarcophagus) was done with pink insulation foam. The leaves are birch tree seeds from trees that grow around my house. The grass is just grass from Woodland Scenics.

Figures are all from Reaper Miniatures.

Those birch tree seeds really look like "to scale" autumn leaves, and really add a lot to your diorama

FanTAStic! I can't even see things that small any more, much less paint them.

That looks great! Now I've got to go find some birch trees! :-)

Check around mid-late Sept. The color is just perfect for them.
