I know - I ought to know better than starting out on another diorama with all the other in-progress builds I have running. But some times I just get an idea that have to be put into something solid... dang..

Hi Jan

Looks very good - another Kriegsmarine dio ful of action (even if peaceful)
Keep up the good work
Cheers,
Rui

Hi Jan off to another great start buy the looks of things what is the boat in the forground looks interesting

I have stained the wooden frame, and have done the basic build up on the water using readytouse wallspakle - I hope to be able to remove the vessels again using the shrinkwrap.

As you will notice, then I have changed the layout so the sub is passing the launch - i find that porportions better with the smallest wessel out along the edge as before the launch was partly hiding the sub.

Cheers/Jan

With the wallspakle nicely dried up, I have masked of the stained and laquered base. After that the "groundwork" have been basepainted in black, as I find that the black color gives a good depth to the painting.



Here the boats have found there places - any cracks between boats and water will get filled with tainted acryllic gel.



Cheers/Jan

Nice work Jan.
