Svedberg Posted July 18, 2018 Share Posted July 18, 2018 Here are a bunch of photos of the dioarama build I have described in the WIP section: https://www.britmodeller.com/forums/index.php?/topic/235040769-a-diorama-with-a-nostalgic-touch/ The purpose of the dioarama was to build a scene that showed some common street elements as I remember them fram my childhood and youth in a suburb to Stockholm, Sweden during the 1950s and 1960s: - a telephone booth - an electrical box - a lamp post - a concrete tree grate - cut stone, Belgian block style - a storm drain Everything, except the young lady in the telephone booth, is scratch built or 3D-modelled/printed especially for this diorama. Any comments and suggestions for improvements, to be applied to future builds, are welcome. Thanks for watching. Lennart 17 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darby Posted July 18, 2018 Share Posted July 18, 2018 Very esoteric. She did spend a long time yakking on the phone. I mean, it was daylight when she started. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevehnz Posted July 21, 2018 Share Posted July 21, 2018 Doesn't that girl have a home to go to? Such a simple theme but so nicely executed & quite nostalgic. I'm liking it a lot. 👍 Steve. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bandsaw Steve Posted August 1, 2018 Share Posted August 1, 2018 A nice little ‘slice of life.’ Lovely to see something inspired by everyday things. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
