Few lines about diorama. Double sheet of Evergreen styrene to simulate PSP. A lot of sections are needed.

Put them together by vinyl glue, then clay (remove any surplus before dry!). Painted in dark grey with washes by artistic olis and sand. It works!

The crew is coming from a very old figure by Airwaves, close to the real technician taken in pictures earlier...
