Logging Camp Essentials

I am going to share my completed build of logging camp essentials. It is the 2nd Sierra West diorama I've done. I put it on a 2'x2' base and also put some lights in some of the buildings. Here are some pictures.

    I still need to take some pictures of it at night with the lights on. I will post those when I take them. I am also going to take some more pictures of it with different light conditions because I think a sunset would look cool and something else that's not direct sunlight like the photos above.
  • Great diorama with lots of lovely scenes. Bravo !!!
  • Very nice! Thanks for haring.

  • Very nice job all around. Great weathering and detail work. Always thought this was one of the most interesting kits ever developed and released and I am sure you put a lot of time and effort into it. Lighting takes it over the top.

    Thank you very much and yes I spent about 3 years on it but it was on and off. There were times when I didn't work on it for a couple months, but then I worked on it diligently for the final few months and finished it. It is a very interesting kit and has a lot of variety in the different buildings in it and the techniques used on each one.
  • This is a very nice diorama. Your details are just great along with the weathering. I really enjoy your little scenes
  • Nice to see you kept at it and finished. Very satisfying to wrap up a sizable build such as this one...and do it so well!
  • Thank you everybody, I hope to post some different pictures at a sunset sometime soon
  • Great to see this amazing kit brought to life and your work on it.
    So many scenes and angles to look at and find everything you put into it.
    A great job on everything you did, congratulations on something so special.
    Well done.

    sorry for the weird camera angles, and some are even upside down. I will try to fix the upside down ones
  • Mushrooms?

    I think you’re talking about the grass tufts?
