I finally completed (well, almost) my miniature diorama which I've been planning to build for ages. Here are a few pics for starters, I'll post more on my pages eventually.

Now I have my head full of new ideas for the next projects. Hope I'll find the time (and nerve) to get started on the next one soon. It was good fun making it - Smurfs so are perfect for this kind of displays.

Wow, that looks great Pauli, really smurfy :D
Long, long ago, deep in the forest, there was a hidden village where tiny creatures lived. They called themselves the Smurfs. They were good.

Nice one Pauli :D This is looking really well done. I would love to work on a smurf display and make it look as nice as what you have done there.

Do we call this one a Pixi-Pauli Village?

That's a nice setup (even if I'm 4 months late....). How did you make the terrain? With plaster and glue-on grass?

How did you make the terrain? With plaster and glue-on grass?
Its made out of fine-grained styrofoam ;). There are 3x 2.5cm layers glued together, rougly shaped with the large kitchen knife and finished off with a scalpel. The terrain was then painted with acrylic paints to hide the white surface, after which grass was glued on.

Hi thanks for the explanation. The technique strikes me as very clever, considering how inexpensive styrofoam can be and how expensive/fine your finished product looks.

Where did you get your grass? Is it the hobbystore stuff that you sprinkle onto the paint/glue?

Is your creek a blue undersurface painted over in resin or transparent glue?

Yes, its the stuff they use for the railway displays. I used a paintbrush to spread a fair bit of glue, added loads of grass and tapped it tight. After the glue had dried I removed all the loose grass.
Is your creek a blue undersurface painted over in resin or transparent glue?
The water is semi-transparent glass finish and actually not very good for the purpose. Clear resin would have been much better. The bottom of the creek is a layer of coarse sand I bought from an aquarium store ;). (As a hint for people making displays: you can get many different types of sand and stones from pet shops which sell aquariums. And usually for really cheap too)
