To my left you can see the
original concept of the diorama
done in Photoshop.

Below are some shots of the  
diorama itself, in its earliest
stages of development.   

The entire project began on
July 1st, 2005.
Here I am searching for just the right spot
in the diorama for our Werewolf.
I decided that placing him hiding behind a
tree would be most effective for our
diorama.
I decided, that the background painting
is to distracting for the rest of the scene.  
I liked the right side, but the lest side.
So I painted over it,
leaving some of the distinct shapes
darkened with a blue nights sky.
Here's a close up of ascorpian.
Here are two rats at play.
Our Predator and some
rats, scurrying about at his
feet and helmet!
And our Watcher, viewing the Alien.   He
has a perfect view
of all the terror going down.
Finally, another Alien will be added coming from the
other side of the stream, then one more Predator with
his spear will be striking from the far right.
And here's the beginnings of the second Predator.
I made use of the alternate head from Geometric Design.
I also added a spear and a skull.   
I decided to change the position of the left arm,
the right arm and the head.   
I'll be changing the legs too.

I love to make scratch built diorama's.
For me, they really are the most
rewarding work
I do.
