Just curious how many people we have on the boards that customise or build dioramas. If so, what have you done or what are your favorites?

I have a gallery at Wicked Force.com under the name of Ron Baumhardt, take a look and let me know what you think!

Hey, I was starting to wonder if anyone was going to post in this section.

I like the swoop.:vader:

The extent of my dioramas are 2 3D playsets, a 4 level Ultarama stand, and a bunch of odd set ups that look like they are posing for family portraits or something!

I wish I had the skills and room to build such grand dioramas as Amshak.

The only thing I have cutomized is a character I made up called Liquid Paper Man. (Hence the odd quote at the jawa boards) Is there a way to upload pictures if they aren't on a website?

You can use the tag if you have the pic on a website -OR- you can attach a file (which doesn't require that it be on a website). With attach, you can only put one picture in your post and with [IMG] you can put multiple pictures in your post.

If you take a look at the "Collection Photo" section, I put some more detailed instructions there.

I need to redo the pics of jabba's palace and update that entire section. I have plans for a new dio but the time just hasn't presented itself. I enjoy working with the dios but my skills with the custom figures is very basic. I mostlt just do minor alterations to figures to make them work better for the dios.

I wouldn't worry so much about the customizing aspect. I started off slow like some painting modifications, addition of different extras on the figures, the old reliable boil n pop head swap. Sculpting stuff didn't come til later & the nice thing about sculpting is you can use clays you have to heat so if you screw up just redo it. Good looking work though it makes me jealous I don't have the room to start one of these.
