This
dramatic view of the dioramas rear combines resin castings and board on
board construction. The weathering techniques exploit each of the materials
to their fullest also blending them into a natural scene.
The
rear corner of the side shed is overgrown with weeds. Fences and the structures
themselves are natural places for details, junk, and clutter to accumulate;
natural or man made.
The
small loading dock is full of supplies waiting for the afternoon local
freight. The faded lettering and sun-bleached barn are in stark contrast
to the much newer and less weathered clapboard siding on the office and
store buildings.
One
final view of the fenced storage yard. Note how the clutter has been layered
against the fence with weeds actually growing between and through much
of the junk.
