Here is something that I thought was a great idea
Awhile ago I came across a great idea for a diorama .I got it off the internet but I have forgotten where,so I cant give recognition to the guy who thought of it.Basically what he did was take a twin engined light bomber and create a very informative and instructional diorama of an aircrat in its natural element,flight.He took a plastic model and split it down the centerline of the fuselage, through the cockpit and other crew battle stations to about the leading edge of the horizontal stabilizer .He showed all of the interior working of the aircraft and the crew going about their duties.One wing was connected to the rear of a mirrored box,so that when you looked in the mirror you saw the comoplete airplane in flight.He had run wiring through the wing to nav lights and a motor which turned the prop.Add a little well placed lighting or even sound and you could have a wonderful working diorama that could be hung from a wall(as you are only dealing with half an airplanes span here)or coffee table or whatever.The idea could easily be adapted to WW1 airplanes rigging and all) and make for a very unique diorama.What do you guys think?Can you think of any additional elements that could be included to make it even better? Cheers! John.
