Well class another day in dungeons.

No one has yet directly confronted the Pop Quiz. *Lets look at Richard's contribution. It appears that someone has had a little accident. *Yet even this swirl of modeling upchuck has a directional flow. *While I tend to think it is tweeked a bit (set up for the shot) I must confess that I did remove the reference pictures I was working from with my last builds before I took the shot of mine. *

While it has been widely believed that one should have a focal point in a diorama, that is not the whole story. *Directions tell the viewer where to look and builds the anticipation of the final image.

When one has a desk to work from it is a reflection of their own personality. *Richard, you have my deepest sympathies. *'Directional Flow' allows you to get from point A to B and enjoy the trip.

Homework assignment is to read the ciriculum text "How to Build Dioramas" by Shepicus Painius.Pages 2-13. *Pop Quiz: What diorama commissioned in 1798, who commissioned it and what is it of?
