Daves Tugboat Diorama

With the plain flat wall fitted in position there was a lack of any detail, so I added another layer in the front, which would also serve as support for the bridge girders.
 
I started the bridge by running girders across the space and cutting ends to form a rectangle. One side of the bridge is longer than the other so the added cross members don’t work out even.
 
 
Sometimes ideas just happen. I had used drywall screen to sand the base and had some lying on my bench. I wanted an open grate type of bridge and this worked out perfect. Just cut it to fit with scissors.

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!
