cheers folks for the welcome, yes the city is only about half done..its a big thing so the first phase is outlining the actual architecture and integrating the lighting etc.i´m just about getting to the fine detailing phase, where each building is aged and textured accordingly. next big job is turning the big metal dome into something more ressembling st pauls in london in some sort of abandoned state!...the trouble is its cold and not much fun in an unheated workshop for these things!!
heres a couple of stills of the city where you can get a bit more of an idea of whats going on
watchman, yes the mexican airfield is more finished (although still needs tweaking) and was fun for breaking up all the old plane kits.at the moment i´m also trying to graft is onto the older catalan village rally track, so give them both a bigger backdrop
one thing i´m learning is the whole concept of bending scale!. forced perspective etc. mexico is 1:43/48, the village is 1:32 and the city goes from 1:32 to about 1:140
heres a pic of the other 2 tracks
i´m looking forward to exploring this forum more, from what little i´ve seen in the diorama part there really is some amazing stuff, plenty more stuff to learn, goody gum drops
oh and watchman by the way the soundtrack is from a download off dubterrain.net (with a couple of extra effects)
the dj here is saltfeend at the pdf pressure drop, some great stuff there if you like that kind of thing
cheers guys sig
