mannyclub Posted August 25, 2010 Posted August 25, 2010 Hello modeler's! From my previous post on my old diorama, this is the new one im building. All wip pics will be in this thread and updated when I get more done etc. The shop looks clean right now but will get messy during time thats for sure, I mean...its a body shop! lol Still have to put in the interior walls etc and lots more work and stuff to do. The drop ceiling will have molding around the top also. This one is gonna be fun to do! Im goin to add a front section on also for parking with a small fenced in area... Thanks for looking.. Manny
Foxer Posted August 25, 2010 Posted August 25, 2010 That ceiling looks really good! .. and gives a lot of atmosphere.
roadhawg Posted August 25, 2010 Posted August 25, 2010 I thought this was a real shop 'till I saw that dude laying on his side over there.
Scalper Posted August 26, 2010 Posted August 26, 2010 wow i thought that was real. the lights look great. the only way i was able to tell it was not real was boddy in the corner with rigermortice.
stepside83 Posted August 26, 2010 Posted August 26, 2010 lookimg good man, i hope when i go to build mine it looks this good, cant wait to see more
DrewCfromSC Posted August 26, 2010 Posted August 26, 2010 looks really neat. Maybe a stepladder near the fallen guy would be funny too?
mannyclub Posted August 26, 2010 Author Posted August 26, 2010 Thanks guys! the step ladder would have been funny there for sure lol Manny Should have some more wip pics soon
Hattley Posted August 26, 2010 Posted August 26, 2010 Holy Cow! Man, I had to look at that twice to make sure. Nice! Hello modeler's!

Eshaver Posted August 27, 2010 Posted August 27, 2010 Manny, I'm glad to see that you are paying attention to my comments . By the way , I spent 30 + years in Body and fender . Ed Shaver
george 53 Posted August 28, 2010 Posted August 28, 2010 I thought this was a real shop 'till I saw that dude laying on his side over there. WOW, So did I! That's looks like it's gonna come out GREAT!!!!!
mannyclub Posted August 28, 2010 Author Posted August 28, 2010 Thanks! LOL yea the guy ruined it! I even took that pic with my cell phone! Manny
stepside83 Posted October 30, 2010 Posted October 30, 2010 any up dates on the dio would love to see more of it
dannyi Posted November 7, 2010 Posted November 7, 2010 WOW, this looks fantastic Manny, very impressive to say the least!
whale392 Posted November 11, 2010 Posted November 11, 2010 I am with everyone else here, it looks great and I had to really look to see it was scale versus real. It is almost a shame to clutter/dirty it up, as I think it could be a very nice backdrop for vehicle photography.
mannyclub Posted February 17, 2011 Author Posted February 17, 2011 Hello everyone, its been awhile since Ive got to post on this dio since moving and setting everything back up again. Well the Mustang is a replica of my 1:1 2000 Mustang GT im building (also topic on the forum). Will be in the shop getting painted next with the base coat then the flames will be air brushed on etc etc. all pics will be takin in the garage in progress I guess lol. The other side of the shop is the 67 impala being restored frame up. Im still working on the garage itself and will get dirty the more i get stuff done and built, lots more to go! Thanks for looking Manny
ra7c7er Posted February 17, 2011 Posted February 17, 2011 This is amazing any chance you could post up how you did the ceiling and everything. It's so realistic if it weren't for the little dudes in some of the pics nobody would know it wasn't real.
mannyclub Posted February 17, 2011 Author Posted February 17, 2011 Hey Rob, thanks!! Here is the link to my site with the How to make the drop ceiling, (well my way anyway) http://mannyclub.atspace.com/cieling.html Manny
ra7c7er Posted February 18, 2011 Posted February 18, 2011 Hey Rob, thanks!! Here is the link to my site with the How to make the drop ceiling, (well my way anyway) http://mannyclub.atspace.com/cieling.html Manny Thanks. I saw your website and the dio page I like all the background you are doing on it. Really makes it come alive. I hope you don't mind me copying you when I go to do the ceiling on my dio.
mannyclub Posted February 18, 2011 Author Posted February 18, 2011 Hey Rob, Your welcome, thank you. I look forward in seeing your dio with that style ceiling too. Manny
