WIP PART 2 - NEW CUSTOM SCI FI BASE DIORAMA FOR GIJOE CLASSIFIED / VALAVERSE 6 INCH SCALE FIGURES!

Still working on the new Sci Fi Base Diorama! It's a slow process, but we're getting there. The furniture items are still being worked upon, but here you have the basic Two-Wall structure. The dimensions for Length, Width and Height are: 18-inches x 15-inches x 13-inches. And this diorama was designed for 6-inch scale action figures.

Everything was made from cardboard, wood strips, and putty / clay. It is possible to use foamboard as well, but I didn't do so in this case. Plus several household items were added here and there, while acrylic hand-paints and spray-paints were used.

I've added two Valaverse Action Force Figures in the pics to help you grasp the scale; and some images are presented with a blue-light filter, while others have the standard white light. Also, there are two tablets set on the leftward wall, with small blue screens. They are held by magnets, and they are removable.

Will a Third Wall be added? I dunno, we'll see how it goes in the future ;)

Part 1 of this series, showing the behind-the-scenes and the prelim layout work is over HERE

  

WIP - NEW CUSTOM BASE DIORAMA FOR GIJOE CLASSIFIED / VALAVERSE 6 INCH SCALE FIGURES!

I know it's late, but Happy New Year to all the DSNG Fans!!!

I have several Original Customs Toys that are almost ready, from a group I'm calling The Iron Brigade, but I haven't had time to photograph and post them.

Also I've been working on this Custom Base Diorama project for a while, based on an original design. I'm not sure when I'll be done with it. Last year, Over on Big Bad Toy Store, I saw a Diorama set that cost almost $180 with shipping, which I really liked... and it was just made from painted slim cardboard with some folded parts. Honestly, it didn't look like it was worth the money. So I decided to give it a shot and build something original, like a compact Base / HQ for my 6-inch scale GI Joe figures.

  

Everything in the base, from the walls to the furnishings, is a scratch-build [using wood, plastic, cardboard, and putty], except for the giant monitor with the twin speakers [bought from Amazon]. But I had to enhance it and raise it higher, and convert it from a flat TV entertainment center to a giant desktop computer table. And more additions will be done later. Plus there is a giant keyboard that is being built, shown on the left side. The floor of the base is a rubber mat, while the thick walls are made from cardboard shipping boxes. And the walls are two parts, a width and a length, which can be adjusted to create a flat wall.

Anyway, I don't know when I'll be finished with this Base Diorama [which still needs to be painted], but I figured it was advanced enough to be posted as a WIP. Thanks for looking! Enjoy & Share!
