Dioramas: Where To Begin?
I really wanna create some dioramas for my TMNT figures.
While I am still very much an amateur, I think my sculpting abilities are competent enough to do what I want. The thing is, where does one start? Specifically with respect to the base structure. How should I go about making the floor & walls? I don't want to just use clay itself, but what would I build on top of? A cardboard box? Ideally, this thing would be solid, & sizable. The idea is to create not simply a piece in which to display figures, but to take pictures, too. So it's gotta be tall & walled. I'm not worried about furniture or prop making, just roughing out a model of the room. Help! I've done something kinda like this on a very small scale, creating damaged buildings for my Gundam kits (see examples below), by sculpting around chunks of postage boxes & painting them. Maybe I could use the same technique (if not a similar approach) but up-scaled, using different materials? Any help would be appreciated.
