Keith has more clever slices of modeling wisdom to share in the next batch of Digital Diamonds Mini-features I will be posting. Here they are:

Thanks Keith!

Great idea, Keith.... :-) :-) Next family gathering I have, I'm gonna snatch them all up ASAP #:-) #:-) #:-) #:-)

Just love that DD #5 there Keith, it does open up a whole realm of possiblities doesn't it?

keep 'em coming! :-) :-) :-)

Tread.

Great idea - another good gem. Reminds us all that we have to be just as creative with our tools as we are with our kits.

I've just finished a "scratch-built diorama using the wooden floor sample shown in this article... while much of the floor is covered in debris, you can certainly see how it "did the job"....

Okay keep them coming. good ideas.

I've had requests for "diamonds" on the following subjects... any others you'd like to add? I don't have answers to everything, but you might be surprised!

- creating water / waterfalls
- figure conversions
- tricks for working on interiors of dioramas
- lighting dioramas
- bases for dioramas
- working with specialty glues...

What else gang?

I'd like to see something on basic scratchbuilding, like tables, boxes, and barrels. This might be included in diorama interiors.

KFMagee,

You hit the right subjects, please give us more diamonds, keep them coming .... #:-) #:-)

How 'bout we next do "Water".... lotsa ideas here.... deep water, puddles, street water, even WATERFALLS (cool idea here for sure!)... any interests?

How about these?(for the aircraft dio guys !)
1. Creating tarmac.
2. Creating cockpit items.
3. Creating A/C carrier based stuff - runways, catapult launching, etc.

Just my 2 rupees !

Rgds,
BP.
