Daves Tugboat Diorama

I made some trees using Woodland Scenics tree armatures and a couple that I made myself. After the trees are made I spray them with Krylon Workable Fixative to keep them from falling apart.
 
I positioned the trees on the base and drilled holes where they would go and put small dowels in the holes to mark their placement. At this point I also marked where telephone poles would be placed. A mix of Elmer’s White Glue and water was brushed on the grassy areas and covered with Woodland Scenics grass. Having the areas marked where the trees are going helps keep the grass off of the areas under the trees.

Dave, an absolutly brilliant job. Love the way you quietly turn it into a horror scene in some of the last photos. Thanks for great build process, really enjoyed it.

What an excellent, well thought out, atmospheric diorama! The step by step narration and photos were also great! Thanks for sharing that with us!
