89AKurt Posted May 16, 2017 Share Posted May 16, 2017 The AMT kit of the Ferrari 250 SWB stinks! So I thought putting it in a diorama would be appropriate. The tree stump is from a bush found outside, same with the grass. The tarp is diluted white glue soaked Kleenex. This was the first diorama I built as an adult.

gasser59 Posted May 16, 2017 Share Posted May 16, 2017 Looks good Kurt. You've built a bunch of dio's since then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
curt raitz Posted May 16, 2017 Share Posted May 16, 2017 Nice diorama Kurt Wayne Carinni would "wet himself" if he stumbled on this in full scale! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chillyb1 Posted May 16, 2017 Share Posted May 16, 2017 That is a really cool diorama and definitely a great way to display that kit. There are great Ferrari 250 kits available now so that AMT kit can be retired (or put out to pasture). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Russell C Posted May 18, 2017 Share Posted May 18, 2017 And this one is still my favorite of Kurt's dioramas. Even better when seen in person, it just reeks of 'dry, neglected dusty vehicle.' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

89AKurt Posted February 25, 2018 Author Share Posted February 25, 2018 Thank you everyone. Yes, inaccurate kits are great for this theme. I have an AMT Mercedes Gullwing that I want to use for a diorama. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anglia105E Posted February 25, 2018 Share Posted February 25, 2018 Perfect way to display a bad kit as others have said, and I like the way you have captured the scene in a very small area of diorama. Kurt the diorama Master ! David Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would be a special occasion indeed. However the odds of finding a 250 in the corner of a yard are pretty high. So you did an excellent job of potraying the impossible.
