Wow, this is looking fantastic! Off to share.

Man, you could use this for a ton of different lines, not to mention just Halloween in general. I love the Fall.

Very cool diorama!!

Your Doctor Who dioramas have been excellent - I have really enjoyed seeing the process and the final products. I particularly like your scratch build TARDIS console.

The ruined church is looking great. It has applications for many lines of figures - it could even work as a more to scale cathedral for smaller scale like Warhammer.

Thanks everyone :-)

Waiting on a delivery of magnetic tape, it was time to start painting this. A base coat of a light grey mixed with a little brown over the entire dio. Brown for the base coat of the door.

When it dried, a second coat added to exposed first layer of foam board walls. A darker grey was used on the floor, large wall and the side walls 2nd and 3rd foam board layers. Dark brown wash over the floor and areas of the walls for weathering.

Need to work on the door next and fix it into place next.

The magnets are in place to hold the walls in together. I’ve used magnetic strip for the bottom of the walls and small magnets placed into the corners to keep the walls together.

For the door I have made a door handle, two bolts and rivets for the hinges out of green stuff. When it has cured I’ve given them a coat of black gloss and when dry I will age them.

To add to the scene I have scattered small piles of scenic ballast around floor.

I went over the black gloss and the ballast with a light grey wash to weather them and match the surroundings.  With all of this done, this diorama is now complete.

Looks awesome buddy and I was going to use magnets for my Indy box dio so I can remove the front panel so I can move Indy around but your magnetic strips is a better idea which I'll be applying to mine.
