"...around the corner" Version 2

[tiking]

This diorama is nothing new. That's because it is a smaller version of the first diorama I built some years ago, which I dismantled because of unsatisfactory reasons. But, I wanted to do a smaller version of the previous one, but was not sure how I wanted it. So here is that same diorama with exception of the US figures. I wanted the attention to be on the opposite side.
 
I think I am satisfied with this version, although, I am sure there will be others who preferred the latter diorama to this. But no worries. To each, his own. 1f642.png BTW, I still have not improved on my figure painting as the figures have been left the same as on the previous diorama. Simply have not enough time to fully concentrate on that. So, I only, repainted certain parts of the figures and weathered them a little.
 
I was hesitant in showing this diorama due to the figures not being up to standard. But I have been busy with other Sci-FI projects lately. Anyhow, I hope you all like this version 2, regardless of the first. Thanks for your support and pepping me on my journey towards improvement. Small note. I had done more weathering after these photos were taken on the building.

I remember the first one Charles, which was great, but I'm liking the smaller diorama better like you say you pay more attention to the subjects at the corner.


But as always with your work stunning.

Thanks for the feedback. I appreciate it.

Absolutely wonderful work Charles, the combination of realism and little broached subject matter make this a special piece in my opinion...BRAVO!.....Jim

As always Charles , a superb piece of work. I remember the older one too , this one has just as much impact as the first. I love the way youve got the dry dusty effect on the vehicle and the figures look great to me (in fact theyre perfect for my figure painting skill level --their faces are covered up , i cant do faces!!!) cheers tony

Thanks tony. I hear ya. That's exactly why I added these figures. you can't see their faces.  I am also terrible at painting them.

This was what version 1.5 looked like just before I decided to changed the scenerio for the third time around.

Well done Charles excellent work. I like the second one I can imagine the figures thinking what is around this corner?
