 This is a project my buddy and I did a few years ago. It is based on the old Keystone cops movies. The progect came about from a conversation we had coming back home from a contest.  The truck was made from the  AMT Budwiser  1925 model t panel van which was converted to  a Paddy wagon.  The hand rails are made from brass rod . My buddy did the charactors  and the base  and the bike.  Comments and questions are  welcome.

Thanks Jerry, you brought a smile to my face, brilliantly planned and executed. A lot of funny details . That brought a lot of memories from when I was a little boy sitting in front of this old b/w Philco ford TV on Saturday mornings.

Very creative. Great action going on and the detailing of the caricatures shows a lot of action going on.

 Thank you guys for all the kind comments.  Mario, your comment about Saturday morning b/w tv was part of the inspiration for this project! I remember those movies too.  Thanks Mark, making people smile or chuckle was kind of what we were shooting for.

That is an awesome diorama Jerry -- had me laughing.  Very creative and well done!  But in color? Shouldn't it be finished in shades of gray?   Just pulling your leg -- I wouldn't change a thing!

 

But it did remind me of a diorama/shadow-box  entered in my club's model contest back in 2008.  It consisted of a hollowed-out portable TV set with a B/W (grayscale) scene from a movie rendered in 3D inside the TV.  That was also very creative (I believe it won the 1st price in dioramas).
