Thank you +Kristel Smith I don't really do a lot of 1/6 scale dios but I will certainly post videos of them when I do.

Another great piece of work! Also, another thing I should replicate in 1/18... I've been mulling over streetlights for my display for some time. Thanks again for the inspiration!

Thanks +vanderpike you're really making me wanna see your work. I haven't really done a 1:18 scale dio so I'm curious to see your take on these street lights.

I'm not all that far into it yet. Still in the design stage as I have about 70 figures to display but I plan on starting to make some props for it this weekend.
I have posted pics of my first dio attempt on the Diostructure FB page but it's 1/12 scale. Here's a link, sorry for the terrible picture quality.

love your work. do you apply mod podge or some sort of sealent to your dios after painting them??

[@MechbayStudios]

For overall diorama seal, I normally use a clear matt spray sealer. I also use Elmer's spray glue for asphalt/floor paving to both seal and add that wet look
