Here is the diorama I’ve titled ‘Refugees’
I added a couple more figures since the last post.
Majority of the people are old Preisler figures. The old lady & crutch guy are from the spares box and thus are of unknown origin.
The base and wall are scratch built and was originally designed to work as a background piece to photograph various model vehicles.
Anyway, I hope you enjoy…
Beautiful work! The subdued, sombre tones of the groundwork and clothing really suit the subject. The figure variety is cool too- plenty of variation from the young to the old carrying what they can, some of them bowed over by the weight of both belongings and their situation- something their facial expressions also convey. The variety of color in the brickwork is wonderfully rendered too- as are the weeds growing up on the pathway and around where the path meets the wall.
Terrific adds from the previous post. Great composition, great painting and great attention to detail, down to the grass and weeds growing in the cobble stones.
