Default Xmods Dioramas?

I got bored, while searching random stuff I ran into something called a diorama. Pretty much a lifelike scene put into scale.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diorama

http://www.ediorama.com/xe/gallery

Here's a Mini-Z/Xmods diorama I found, not much but it's pretty cool.

The guys finished product.

Another different one.


Imagine a car meet scene on a mountain like in the Initial D Live Action movie? That'd be freakin' awesome.

So if you have a diorama of some sort, maybe a garage. Drop a pic in here. So people can check it out.

If you take a look over the members garage threads you will see a few people have custom garages, the one Bondo put together is pretty impressive!

That, I would say, is a Diorama. In fact, a really nice one too! I like it lots. I'm tempted to find me a big block of foam do and a mountain curve drift scene. LOL.

Awesome stuff man.

That looks super sharp. Garages are a very nice addition to these scale cars. Just adds to the realism I guess you would call it.

Haha, I'm 19 and my mom keeping me around for school. Loud Xmods in the kitchen drifting is nice cause they don't bother me. Even when I find the loudness annoying myself. xD

I so need to find a big block of styrofoam.
