Scott,
I don't think you added too much scenery at all. Nice job on your first dio. Now that you busted your cherry, you'll be addicted to building more I like how the water has different tones at different angles and light. Now...who's first on the new terrain?

 

[Wraith]

Looks great! And I agree, don't think there's too much schwubbewy on there.
C'mon! Get something on there and start snapping photos!

Scott,
It looks great, I do not think you added too much scrubbery.
Great job on your first diorama. Now lets see some Zulus on it.

Just one for now, still waiting on my parcel from Natal. I think I will use this base for taking snaps of new figures as they arrive. Then will go on display with my hospital.

Here is the finished piece

I am not sure, I think I added a little too much scenery? What do you guys think?

Just right imho, looking forward to seeing it populated.

Seeing this pic on the web I have to admit it doesn't look half bad for a first attempt.

Thanks Jeff

And if your dio skills are as good as your painting skills you don't have anything to worry about.

Looking good Scott, that would make a great base for my Pontoon sets.

Scott,
Now that you've done your first, on a scale of 1 to 10, how hard was it really? The mind will keep on swirling with ideas for others!

Congratulations. I recently bought a Woodland Scenics kit at Michael's. Are they easy to work with? Your results look very nice.

Apologies Scott but this is safer that the Postal Service

It was surprisingly easy, the step by step instructions are great and now I know what I need to do I can source the pieces individually and go from there. I would say the hardest part would be taking the first jump and spraying the glue it was all downhill from there and actually was a lot of fun.

I still have quite a bit of the scenic stuff left over to do another base so I think a little planning and I may start another one.

A great first effort mate,
To quote my late father "your only limited by your imagination"
It will inspire me to do the same.
Thank you.
