Diorama WIP

I don't normally like to post work in progress stuff but it's taking me too long to finish this! I've stuck some bits down just to give a rough idea of what I'm planning:

So far I've only really done the easy part, there's a lot more work to be done. There's a lot of sculpting to be done on the extra walls. On the second sewer, I intend to change the hexagonal opening to an arch, just for variety. The TVs have to be cut out and I'll probably just have a plain wall there. I may add another ledge in the corner of second sewer, but I haven't figured out the best way to do it yet. I have a few pipes from the TMNT sewer and the Batman Begins playset to add, and the spare hexagonal gate to use. Any thoughts on the best way to organise the features would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks for the kind words everyone, hopefully it'll give me the impetus to finish the project!

I'm certainly very proud to warrant a Regular Show reference! I'll carry on posting bits and pieces as I go along. There are some ladders to go up to the manhole covers but I haven't figured out the best way to attach them yet, I could do with some help there. I'll post some pics to illustrate what I'm thinking.

With regard to the subway tunnels, the back wall is quite big, but doesn't seem tall enough for a usable ledge. I was probably going to put some some pillars on it, as one large brick wall is a bit dull. I don't really think pillars are going to help that very much though, any thoughts on how that wall should look?

Thanks!
