Home made dioramas

Anyone out there have pics of their 1:18 dioramas? I have some to post later, but I want to see what others have done.

I recently moved and unfortunately, my best one was completely destroyed in the move. I started rebuilding last night. I'll dig up some old pics in the meantime.

        This is still going through a rebuild and the roof and some other parts need to be replaced. When it is complete, it has lighting in the ceiling. It can be seen in a couple shots, but needs to be redone. There are many pics. Hope I can post them all.

Very slick!! I like the bike and shrink-wrapped compressor! Did you do the shrinkwrap with plastic wrap? Amazing how everything is to perfect scale!

I cut strips of food wrap and wrapped it. The pallet is made of balsa wood and stained/aged with paint thinner with a drop or two of of black paint mixed in. The garage even has its own diecast car on the toolbox.
