Garage Diorama Progress

Me, My Dad, and my Dads friend/workmate went to a wood working expo today where I picked up some new attachments for my dremel. I came home, put all the attachments in my Dremel case and thought, why don't I use them for something... So I thought Diorama.
I didn't end up actually using any of the new attachments but I might later on in the build of the diorama.

Anyway, I cut out 2 A4 size pieces of cardboard and used masking tape to stick them together. The floor is a square, so it is also A4, with a bit on one side, also cut out of cardboard. I sprayed the floor flat black, but didn't do the walls. I printed off some of the bricks frin Spoolin's diorama thread, stuck them on the walls and to my amazement (not really ) I had a room.

I found some pictures on the internet, resized them and stuck them on the walls. The bench is a piece of wood with nails as legs. There is a red button that when pressed, turns on the (very dull, needs to be replaced with a brighter) light.

The car that is in the diorama at the moment is going to be built up as an unfinished project car. The paint job is like that (thick and not very well covered) because I am going to be sanding it back, through to the primer in some areas, to simulate a real project car. The wires on the engine are spark plug wires, but I am waiting for a pin vice to arrive that I ordered yesturday.






Feel free to comment, and please let me know if my pictures are too big.
