So my original post got deleted by accident. So here it is again, I'm giving the dio thing a try. Going for a Porsche outlaw garage, with a Fujimi 356 and a 911. I made the floor and walls with plaster of Paris. I followed a "how to" by Ken Hamilton. Im also using the Fujimi tool kit. A lot more in the works and planning the side walls and doors. And I still have to start on the 356 outlaw. I'm still waiting for a few things in the mail to attach the walls and really start assembly. Thanks for looking!

Somebody allready asked how you've done the walls, I was waiting for your answer but some topics got deleted, so I ask it now. :)

Can you please tell us how you've done the beautifull walls? :)

And is it simple?

Jamie, here is the "how to" I followed by ken Hamilton. I used plaster of Paris, and the results were pretty good. There are some bubbles in the wall and floors. I did it 3 times, and I could not get rid of them. So I'm just gonna go with it. I also cracked the floor, but I think I'll be able to hide it with the lift :). I found it to be simple. Just set your stuff up, mix and pour. Don't wait because the plaster dries fast.

Where'd you get that cool laptop?

Love the Porsches.

eBay buddy. The evil bay. Search dioramas or g scale, there is a plethora of items to add to a dio, if it doesn't make sense to scratch build the item. Since this is my first rodeo, I'm opting to buy some of this stuff. Like the door in the picture. I found that on eBay, next go around I'll try to scratch build it.

I feel like the posters are a bit small, I will probably redo them.

hard one .. i would say yes because it creates difefference .. but on the other hand the floor and block wall are so matching and nice .. maybe its best to do a wall like the block wall there ....

I know Rich, I don't know. I'm going to build wooden sliding doors, so I think that will make it work. I will distress some of the bricks with different colors. I used the plastruct brick sheet, and sponged on plaster in the cracks. If I don't like it with the doors, I'll make a cinder wall. :)
