Very Good ! :)

I really like your Tree ! The JJD Cabin looks really great with those K&C figures.
 
Thanks guys... But seriously im going to be making a bigger one and i would like any feed back on what i could change...

Thanks,
 
A very good effort .. especially like the grass & tree, although IMHO JJ's log cabin looks a bit on the small side for the K&C figs.

OD :)

Good diorama mate .Just one idea for you is you could mix some plaster of paris making sure it is very wet and brush it on the sides of your base .When this hardens you sand it smooth and paint it black as this will present your base better and you won't see the foam.I use no more gaps on my bases but I don't no whats its called in the U.S.Hardware shops are a great place to get hobby stuff and cheap.Love to see more of your work at a latter date.Simmo.
 
Well done!

Looking forward to see your new creations

I use veneer strip instead. You can by it for a few bucks at Lowes or Home Depot, just stain it and glue it around your diorama base. You can paint it to if you like, it will give your dio a nice framed look:)
 
Guys thanks for the suggestions for the side of my dio... That is something i have been meaning to address so i will get to work on that for this one as well as anyone in the future.

Thanks for the comments and please if anyone else would like to comment please do so.
 
Very nice start.
Not a lot of room for improvement that I can see.

My only humble suggestions would be to add some degree of highs and lows to the terrain and border the sides with maybe a wood rail fence or a few rocks, shrubs.

I got a good mag the other day and it talks about "directing the eye of the observer" with all sorts of interesting items.

I got to try that myself.

Hope to see more soon to give me inspiration.
