Large Scale Central

A street corner in Lisbon.

Hello. !

After some time without boring you, I come to show some pictures from my diorama.

Hope you like it.

Regards

Xavier

if you think, you are boring us with this… just go on boring!

first question: the street, did you lay individual stones, or did you carve it?

Outstanding Xavier! I’d love to see your work anytime.

Hi !
The cobblestones are laid individually. Are small pieces of clay.

I carve cobbles in another diorama, but are still in progress. When it’s finished I post it.

Thanks

Regards

Xavier

Thank you very much Rich.

Very nicely done, Xavier… Very nicely done…

The realism of it is just AMAZING!

I’ve never been in Lisbon, but have railfan friends who have. This diorama looks like some of their pictures. Very,very nice.

I’m glad you like it. !

Thanks guys. !

Hi, again !

This diorama are in 1:24 scale (exact)
All you can see are scratchbuild.
The cobbles are small pieces of clay. Even some in the walkway. Others are made in wood.
The streetcar is a scratchbuild copying an Occre model.
At the start I was decide to finish the roofs with tiles, but at last, I build a small penthouse.

I was going to say the same. When a model stands up to close-up photography you know it was very well done. I’m always finding major flaws in my work when I shoot macro shots of it (http://www.largescalecentral.com/externals/tinymce/plugins/emoticons/img/smiley-surprised.gif)

Right down to the Mitsubishi logo on the window AC unit !!!
