I didn’t like how the project was going so I threw it out and started over. I added utility poles. I might add a stone wall at the top. I still need to add one more tree. I made the road larger to accommodate more vehicles. Here is the new version. I will pour the retaining wall today. I will be adding static grass. I have very tried several static grass applicators in the past and have been disappointed with each one. I found one called the Grasskeeper from Germany. Very expensive but it is supposedly the best one on the market. I am trying to learn this layering technique using different lengths of static grass. I normally use Martin Welberg scenery but it is too expensive to do a large area.

Finishing cafe tables and added concrete bench

So on the last pour in the fountain a large bubble formed which ruined it. I had to replace the fountain. I will start pouring the resin tomorrow. Here’s a photo of the newly painted fountain. The hydrant isn’t glued down. Just seeing where I want it.

My mind never rests

Making trees out of sage branches. I get pieces and then glue them together to form dead trees.

About 2 feet in diameter

The wall will continue to the end. I will be placing trees devoid of leaves along the roadway. The ruined cottage will face the roadway.

No problem 👍

Never heard of it. I assume by the name you have to have a UV light along with the resin.

It’s so time consuming…you can only add 1/8 inch at a time and 24 hours for curing between pours.

No problem…and thanks for following and commenting 👍

I don’t know if you are being funny or not…but the chairs aren’t finished nor have they been painted. I am still waiting for two more sets to come in.

Starting another diorama. This one will be a German column (about five vehicles) moving on to their objective down a mountainous roadway. There will be a ruined cottage along the side of the asphalt roadway. I just poured the retaining wall.

Like the saying goes…a picture is worth a thousand words.

Adding water to fountain. This will be done in a few layers allowing for curing time over the next few days

Weathered road, sidewalk and added debris

Thanks…just waiting on some diorama items to arrive. The interior of the cafe will have five tables with chairs and a wall cabinet with coffee cups and bottles . The second floor will be an office.
