Please don't take my criticism the wrong way, your work is at a level I could only dream of emulating, I'm just concerned that the focus of your scene may be lost in such a large backdrop. This section alone makes for a more effective composition IMHO: Just that, mounted on a stand (aircraft style), possibly with something from the movie and some text on the base itself? Just a thought. No problem Sarge and I understand exactly what you mean. He does look a little lost in the scene and I think a well lit box diorama with a cinema style "widescreen" viewing slot would be perfect for this as it would keep Jack as the main focus but also allow the viewer to see a little more of the room if they peeked a bit further inside. This was designed and built by my friend Jason and I'm just tasked with the painting and is destined to end up on somebody else's shelf. it's a companion piece to this walking dead one I did a while back and is very similar in its layout although the doors are the main focus here.

Or is that the plan? I have done a few different displays in 1/6 scale that people have put their custom figures on so it could very well end up having a Shelley Duvall as Wendy hiding behind the door I Painted a 1/6 scale television set a little while that Jason scratch built ( this one was for me ) and I'm going to be making a Carrie Anne figure for it so I can have a 3D rendition of this Edited July 26, 2018 by Brundledonk 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brundledonk Posted July 26, 2018 Author Share Posted July 26, 2018 (edited) More progress but I think you'll be pushed to see much difference in these pictures. I gave the door another good brushed on coat of my Vallejo off white mix ( Ivory, yellow and white ) to give a more solid base and also give me some hopefully in scale brush marks then out with the airbrush and sprayed with a mix of tamiya gloss and flat white with a tiny bit of buff to knock the colour back tiles are just laid on to try and show the colour of the "woodwork" The sheen on the finish looks about right to me so I don't think I'll need to clear coat it and up close the brush marks still show through the airbrushed paint nicely Edited July 26, 2018 by Brundledonk 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brundledonk Posted July 26, 2018 Author Share Posted July 26, 2018 (edited) I made a mix for the exposed timber using an old pot of Citadel dark sun Yellow lightened progressively with white until it look right to me old mince pies. I put a sheet of white paper behind the hole to hopefully allow the camera to capture the colour of the door Edited July 26, 2018 by Brundledonk 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brundledonk Posted July 26, 2018 Author Share Posted July 26, 2018 (edited) Starting to add some grime and wear and tear to the door Im using Vallejo umber, black and pale grey washes for this mixing as I go and using water to vary the intensity of the effect.

Brundledonk Posted July 26, 2018 Author Share Posted July 26, 2018 (edited) I'm trying my hardest to not overdo it but no doubt I will lol, but it will be easy to fix by going back in with the airbrush and soften under some off white mix Still need to add some to the architrave and get the handle and hinges painted too Edited July 26, 2018 by Brundledonk 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brundledonk Posted July 26, 2018 Author Share Posted July 26, 2018 (edited) For the walls I'm going to try and use this lining paper A very quick and rough test ( literally just bodged on here ) and I reckon if I can get it cut neatly and stuck on with no drama it will look pretty good Edited July 26, 2018 by Brundledonk 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brundledonk Posted July 26, 2018 Author Share Posted July 26, 2018 (edited) Before I forget here's one of the screen grabs i'm using for reference. this shows me I need to go two tiles higher and also that Jay forgot to add a bolt to the door lol. The tiles I can manage but not sure I'm up to the bolt so may have to get Jason to knock one up and I can paint it and glue it on at the end. You can see how manky those grout lines are too Edited July 26, 2018 by Brundledonk 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brundledonk Posted July 30, 2018 Author Share Posted July 30, 2018 (edited) Sorry to Sarge these aren't painted but are decals so no step by step. Jason the builder of the diorama bagged them for me as there is every likelihood that there will be mutiples of these made and using decals will keep things nice and consistent and also save me a bit of time these are Archer decals and there are a few different colours and sizes on the sheet, with and without catch lights the ones I used are the green ones and around 2mm dia. Easy to put on but a little tricky to cut to the shape of the eye Edited July 30, 2018 by Brundledonk 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gimme Shelter Posted July 30, 2018 Share Posted July 30, 2018 OMAG - that's a fantastic scene and bust you have going on there - love the iris decals too, something I did not know existed looking forward to seeing it all complete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brundledonk Posted July 30, 2018 Author Share Posted July 30, 2018 (edited) Handle and hinges time and in the screen grabs it looks like a worn and tarnished brass. i used Alclad jet exhaust as the base colour Lightly over painted with aluminium ( there is texture on the flat plate from the primer but this kind of worked out to my advantage at the end ) And finally pale burnt metal which has a nice gold tone to it Edited July 30, 2018 by Brundledonk 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brundledonk Posted July 30, 2018 Author Share Posted July 30, 2018 (edited) Masking off and here's the result. The texture on the plate looks heavy in the pic but to the eye the effect is quite pleasing so a happy accident methinks Hinges were done the same way ( sorry for the out of focus picture ) Edited July 30, 2018 by Brundledonk 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brundledonk Posted July 30, 2018 Author Share Posted July 30, 2018 (edited) Added a little more weathering to the door with Vallejo wash and also a bit on the architrave and skirting Edited July 30, 2018 by Brundledonk 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brundledonk Posted July 30, 2018 Author Share Posted July 30, 2018 (edited) And a close up of Jack looking suitably manic and sweaty ( I've sprayed the background behind his head since this was taken but it wasn't dry enough to take a pic with him in place ) Im very nearly done with this now and just need to do the wallpaper and the floor. I don't think the floor will be too bad but I'm not looking forward to cutting the paper as I reckon it's going to be a pain to get cut accurately so I'll wait until tomorrow and give it a go Pete Edited July 30, 2018 by Brundledonk 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
