Re: Re: My junkyard diorama and its car's. DU Waring!

You have inspired me to start my own diorama. Well, kinda. So far i have relocated my 1:24 scale GMC Top Kick flat bed hauler, and i've compacted/flattened 2 cars (1987 Buick GN and 1969 Camaro SS; both cars raped for any valuable parts) Onlything i gotta do now, is find some complete ones, weather them, and make the diorama itself.

Nice Dio

I thought the whole dio had a good layout and plenty of interesting details.
BTW....where did you find the 1/24 scale 55 gal drums ?
These were a nice touch.

Thanks

lol, awesome work. Maybe you should buy some cheapo older style diecasts, and give them the old look, then put 'em in a vice and squish them. every junkyard needs a stack of cars.

They all look really cool, I like the filthy look to the whole area. How did you get the sign to look like that?

I bought the drums at my Local Hobby Shop here in South Jersey. The HS is call Allied Hobbies, they will ship too.

They were bagged with a wooden pallet and 2 55 gallon drums. I weathered the shit out of them as well as a few dents!!


I cannot for the life of me remember the name of the company that made them.

Goto the military Dio sites that's where ALL the good pieces can be found as well as killer sources.

Heres a KILLER one that Post on.

All I did for the signage was mix 60% Testors flat black and 40% Thinner, added some rust powder (dried out steel wool) and "dirtied" it up!

I use Kodak photopaper to lay my Photoshop creations on so it has a geat shiny layer on top that you can put nice scratches onto with an Exacto knife.
