A Slum Scenario

November 21, 2024 · in Diorama · · 20 · 174

I have one or two more to add, but I am still waiting for them to arrive. I might add a few more details as well, but so far, this is what it looks like. I used several reference photos that this diorama was based off. I tried to put as much into this small space as possible without over-crowding it. As always, I've been doing a lot of figure painting to improve my skills. So far, I'm stepping up the ladder in slow increments. I'm happy with the results I have achieve in my development. Hope you all like the results too.

  1. Charles, @tiking, once again you present an interesting, well constructed and different diorama. Your buildings and landscaping are very well done. You capture a moment in time in the lives of some poor people and convey a bit of what it must be like. Well done.

  2. That's another impressive diorama, Charles @tiking
    Hard to believe you are able to add some more details.
    To me it looks perfect already.

  3. This is compelling work, Charles- is this a scene you yourself witnessed during travels abroad?

    • Yes, most certainly. 🙂 But my inspiration for this particular diorama comes from photos I found on the internet.

  6. Another work of art, Charles (@tiking). This diorama really creates the feel and mood of your photo. Reminds me of several places I went to in the Air Force.

  7. Fantastic result, Charles! What an inspiration!
    Congratulations!

  8. The realism in your work is always amazing, Charles. I have two of those exact white plastic chairs in my back yard right now.

  9. Extremely realistic, Charles.
