Nice simple diorama that tells a story. I love it.

I have no idea how I missed this one!

 

A fantastic little diorama.

For a start, the truck is superb. The wall and tree are equally good and compliment the truck nicely. The figures are also great, with nice relaxed poses and I really like the style in which you've painted them. Some may criticise their 'lack of eyeballs' but I quite like them like this and no eyeballs are much better than bad ones.

 

The flowering plants look great too, but the positioning of the 3 along the left edge, near the card players, looks very 'staged' to me. Certainly one clump should show signs of having been run over by a truck. I think they would have looked more natural placed at the base of the wall, or along the front edge. 

I'll forgive the guy for 'sleeping' directly behind the truck as there is obviously some humour in this diorama and his stupidity does fit in with that.

 

I look forward to seeing your next diorama.
