After seeing the preliminary base layout, my friend/client Mike decided it looked similar to a place he'd be in South America and sent a photo.

So, we decided I should attempt to paint it in a similar way rather than a more red looking surface of Mars concept. I feel like it turned out quite well .

I have also placed, nothing is attached yet, all of the elements onto the diorama to get a better sense of the space layout.

I still have to drill the holes for wiring and get the Knight and War Dogs connected to power. I'm also leaning toward not having a power button... if it's plugged in it's on. Or, the button will be front and center on the front face of the base itself...

Very impressive, Brian @brithebuilder
The base did indeed came out nicely, just like the place in South America

All finished! Now to shoot some better pics for the headline article and a turnaround video and then do a ton of editing for my YouTube channel. I am very happy with how it turned out. I love the lone survivor standing his ground as the hoard swarms toward him. The dead guys on the ground are mostly covered and will give viewers new things to see/find for quite a while. The lighting is super cool in a dark room.

@fiveten - Thanks Spiros! Much appreciated.

This came out great, Brian (@brithebuilder). The lights really set the mood. I think I like the last of the 5 photos above. Well done.

@anthonyricco - Thanks man! I'm super happy with the result and so was my buddy Mike. I feel the same way about my work after seeing a lot of the super detailed pieces posted here. Hopefully we all just keep inspiring each other to push ourselves out of our comfort zone to try new things. I'm looking forward to seeing what you do with lighting!

Brian,

Your friends photo would make a interesting back drop if you where to size it right. Or place it far enough to photograph in the back of the dio to create the illusion of more depth in the back round to showing good combination of knights and creepies. Over all things look good especially, with the lighting.
