sheep diorama

Subject: sheep diorama Fri Dec 16, 2011 6:28 pm

hello everyone , my near completed hillside sheep diorama , chicken wire frame and papier mache with model railway green grass sprinkled on it. i used some of my britains detail kerry hill sheep and a couple of other britains sheep and 2 britains herald ewes. I really do need to add some bushes maybe a tree etc. also the background looks a little crap! any ideas welcome :-)

I think the back drop is pretty Very Happy

You did a great job on the hill, wonderful! I have done something similar but in HO scale. I agree a tree or some bushes (maybe gorse bushes?) would look lovely on there. I still haven't added any trees or bushes to mine Rolling Eyes

Wow! How beautiful!!! I love you

These figures remind me my childhood, I had 6 of these grazing sheep (but painted as a black faced) + one ram and few of these grey walls elements, I use to spend so much time playing by my little herd Very Happy

I had also shepherd dog, not sure what breed but he was black and white. I remember how much I wanted to make bigger herd but I couldn't find more of these sheep in the shop later. And much later my cousin from Sweden asked me if I can give all my farm animals to her, so I don't have them anymore Crying or Very sad

Thank You so much for the picture Dean, it's wonderful!! It's like coming back to the years of childhood for me Very Happy

Somehow I think just leave it like these could be beautiful!! Not needs to add too many thing onto the grass!!

I think it is fantastic and I would not change the background, it gives the diorama a finished look. At some point I am going to add backgrounds to mine and I can only hope it comes out looking as nice as yours!
