Building a Budget Diorama?

[SuperStockAndy]

Wasn't sure whether to post this here or in the diorama section, so mods feel free to move it if need be.

Alright, I'm wanting to build a diorama on a very cheap budget. I want it to be a shop/garage scene. Anyone got any tips on how to do that? Thanks!

Buy cheap materials?? Sorry, I'm not much a diorama person, but I couldn't resist.

I'm not much on dios, but I always look at every day objects & try to imagine how I can incorporate them into my models. Look at all things small from all angles and before you know it, you'll see a workbench, or a bench vise, or who knows. Toys are a great place to start. I have used many of my kids old toys or parts of them fot things they weren't meant for! I would guess at your age you have everything in your room, house & garage without buying a thing. Imagination is the key. Empty CO2 cartridges make great acetylene tanks e.g. Pry it out of your mind & make it happen!
