The figure is not yet finished but you can get an idea with this pic of how it will look once you take scale distance and lighting into consideration.I will use pastels to tone down areas that are a little too shiny .I am not sure that I like the green hat!!

I am getting anxious to get back to the plywood base again and start working on those new outdoor modules to see if my ideas are going to work.It will be sort of a compromise solution to the indoor /outdoor thing.The primary focus will still be the indoor storyline ,where all the figures will be placed . The view from the front will be stage-like ,while the other three sides will have enough going on to keep the viewer interested,yet still able to easily look through the windows to the action going on inside.One of the problems with too big a base is, that once you get the plexiglass case on ,the viewer would not have a clear view to the inside of the diorama.

QUOTE(BananaBob @ Apr 29 2007, 07:10 PM)
I love the style of clothing for this period, looks great John, can smell the leather. biggrin.gif It would be cool if a camera could be articulated through the diorama with a macro lense then add sound effects of people talking, tools clanging and so on. Don't know if that's possible, but would be cool. smile.gif Great work. artist.gif * Thanks Bob! Wow ,that is a great idea.I never thought of making a video with sound effects,now that would be really cool.If you have any ideas along those lines I would love to hear them.I have thought of installing speakers with the sounds of an old radial engine.(just because I love that sound ,the same way I love the sound of the old Harley engine)

Now that the base is finally cut to the right size,
I want to put a black border around the outside to act as a sort of frame for the diorama.The question is How big a border?and should I just paint it or use some other kind of material or veneer? Any suggestions would be welcome.

Finally!(Final assembly)
Well here we go,finally the hangar floor is screwed down to the base.This means that from now on whatever I add on will be there for good.
I will start by screwing the carpenters shop to the hangar floor .
