Looks great!

Apologies for the very late reply to everything but for the past month my work life had taken over and the only thing I had time for was painting miniatures in between meetings, which I'll post later about.  In the meantime here are the final pictures for 3 dioramas and a WIP of another rooftop.

First off is the Weapon X diorama I did.

And lastly WIP of the next rooftop diorama, this one is larger than the others and is 16.6" x 16" x 16". As you can see it is well underway.  Yesterday I've added a border around the base and then added the brickwork, upon completion I added the cornerstones to each corner, cut out the roof floor before finishing off for today by adding the rooftop ledge.  I just have a few bits I need to do and then I can start painting.

Nice, I have been wondering what you were up too.

Off to the front pages.

Good to see you check in! That lab entrance really looks good. I really like the stripes that you painted on the door and how the pocket doors don't close into a simple straight line. You have really figured out how to do these rooftops, too. They're great!

Love that Weapon X Entrance!

I am starting work on a personal project, something I have wanted to do for quite a while but have never gotten around to doing. I am going to do build an Arkham Asylum diorama, drawing inspiration from the 2009 Arkham Asylum video game. My idea is to build 2 cells with an adjoining corridor.

I am starting with the first cell, this one will be stylised for the Riddler. Sorry, his figure has not arrived yet so, for now, Mr J is modelling for you. The measurements for the cell is 10" (h) x 10" (d) x 8" (w) and another cell will be the same dimensions. I have cut 3 pieces of 6mm foam board to the dimensions I've mentioned (these will later be stuck onto thicker pieces of foam).  For the tiles, I have used a piece of card and glued it onto the foam. If this does not work then I'll just cut another couple of pieces of foam.

Oh yeah, off to a great start. Time to go share this on the front pages.

I like the look of some of the new Batman characters.

This will be a fun project to watch. I'll be curious to see how you feel about your card brick application.

I've spent today cutting foam and working out the overall layout of this piece. Glueing the two 6mm cell floors that I cut earlier onto a base of 20mm foam board, then adding a longer piece of 6mm foam board as the corridor floor. Glueing the wall pieces onto the outer walls and finishing for the day by cutting out the wall between the two cells.

The next step is the cut the wall which will house the cells doors and the sidewall for the second cell.

Looks great to me. Progress!

Off to share your update on the front pages.

I started painting this commissioned rooftop diorama. Earlier this week base coated this piece with black spray paint, today I painted the bricks, cornerstones and edges. Once these had dried, I painted random brick on each of the walls and the rooftop building with a brown wash. The next step will be to start weathering the grey brickwork.
