We need to take a rectangular block (the material does not matter) and paint the top side of it like a smoot muddy swamp surface. The diorama would be called the "Drowned Tiger." It would be something like a sausage without meat for vegans. Vytautas 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe even a tank to do? No trees, grass, hares, mushrooms, or bubbles (and of course no tanks)! Absolutely nothing that could contaminate the whole concept. Just a smooth, shiny surface and nothing more! Nothing! Vytautas Edited October 4, 2021 by vytautas 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

echen Posted October 5, 2021 Share Posted October 5, 2021 Talking of drowned Tigers I found the attached. (It's not a Tiger.) But I thought the construction of the diorama looked interesting having seen the plans outlined above. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
