Thanks Shawn

I have glued all of the pieces for the pillars together, marked out and etched in the brickwork and added a layer of 6 mm foam board to the base. When that is dry I will etch in the stone slabs, before deciding on what to do for the roof.

Nice. Off to share on the front pages.

I've started to make it look more like a ruin by cutting individual bricks out from the walls. I cut out a couple of pieces of foam to sit on top of the pillars, the exact name of it I am not sure what it would be called. If anyone does, please let me know!  Using some scrap pieces I made a couple of rocks that need rounding off, just to see what they would look like next.

I've etched it brickwork into the top of the pillars and aged the bases of each pillar and the floor. I am now in two minds whether to add an external layer of foam to the two side walls and etch external brickwork and then whether to have solid walls or to match the external wall to the internal?

Instead of using The Phantom, today He-Man is the model.

Looks good on the front pages.

I've now completed this temple ruins build. First I added brickwork to the outside of the sidewalls, created a roof using 10 mm foamboard and then added 1"  x 1" blocks around the edges. Using a hot wire cutter to carve out chunks from each block and then weathered them and external walls. I also carved a tile pattern on the underside of the ceiling.

I created a small set of steps to run along the outside of the temple and moulded one set of the rocks to fit over them. Each of these pieces has not been glued together, I've left it all separate to make it easier to paint before making this all a single piece diorama.

The dio looks great.
I like the pillars.

I've started painting. First I have given it a black undercoat and once it had dried, I mixed up a light grey with a touch of blue acrylic mix then taking a sponge I dabbed the paint over the model.

My next step once the paint dries is to apply a black wash over the stone before dry brushing.

WIP Update on my latest diorama, I added a black wash over the entire piece, when it dried I dried brush a light grey over all surfaces.

With the painting of the ruin complete, it's time to start on the extras like broken bricks and gravel on the floor.
