I have not done anything since the last time I started painting furniture and military items (shield and boxes of ammunition). Besides, I just got the material to make my own decals : So I can work more.
For the decor, I will do it just after the furniture.
Regarding the ODST's video, I'm almost finished it, I have to export it and put it online. And with my internet connection, it will take me probably 4 hours... :/
And for photos, they will come with the video !

I'm excited for the next video. And ya, exporting videos on Youtube can really be a pain. Been there, done that.

I just discovered this thread and I must say your work is most excellent! The amount of time you're taking with it shows in the quality of the results. Great job!!

Thank you guys !
As promised, a video and some news on the progress of the diorama.
I present to you the newest video showing you the paint job to do for a small ODST. I admit it's a long video but I made it as short as possible. Many details do not appear in the video and also I say it.
Enjoy! : D
So Here are the pictures:
At first I was molded weapons of HALO 3, so I made cartridge clip for these weapons. Then I cast weapons of HALO 4 and unfortunately, this is not the same cartridge clip. So I set out to make other one by one.
Finally, I say "you're stupid Valentin, you have silicone and resin, make a mold". So I made one charger of BR and one of Assault rifle.
And I cast it ! This is much faster and much easier.
Talaaa: the result ^ ^
I also needed a small supply !
The small central part of the shield.
I'll let you look at the evolution ...
Interior details : it is not as simple as it looks.

Phew, finally, now I'm going to stick that.
Another detail of the interior of the shield.
Here it is with the primer !
A little bit of green ...
Sometimes the longest thing to do, it is not to paint, is to hide what should not be painted ...
I soon finished the shield and the phone booth, I'll post pictures when finished.

My jaw dropped when I saw those last three pictures! Making magazines for a tiny rifle is one thing, but the detail you put into the barricade is unbelievable!
Every time I see this thread pop up, I think "He's still at it?" And you never disappoint with your updates! As always, I look forward to more.

Since I posted the photos, I added a little detail on the magazines.
Yes I'm still on this diorama for almost 4 years ...
Thank you guys, this is the kind of comment that makes me even more desire to continue do my best.
Just before starting the diorama I wanted to make an ODST armor. But France is not like the United States, there are almost no events to be able to cosplay. Maybe one day ...That detail is amazing, it only makes me think what you could do with a full suit of armor
If I could, I would not say no
Thank you guys !

It's time for a big late update.
No, I did not do anything during that time, that's what you thought huh ?! I enjoyed myself, I have advanced, at least it is on the good way!
After the photos, I have a little announcement to make, you'll see !
It begins with the new sandbag wall (version 1 had a small problem).
Here is the line to be followed.
This will allow me to do it: a kind of clay that hardens like a rock.
It starts like this,
Then cut and it looks like this:
And finally this:
After the undercoat and primer, paint.
Now, the new bench at the right and the old (ugly) at the left.
In "real" the bench had holes almost everywhere, so I must drill them with the Dremel ... One by one, it's long !
Remains to repaint ...
For the diorama, I need to create complex motifs or small: too much to be done with painting. The solution ? Making decals like models.
Here you need: special sheets (and a small bottle of product that is not in the picture)

We must prepare the motifs on the computer and then printed. It should be a dry one day.
Then you have to cut and dive into the water for about 30 seconds and ...
Talaaaa ! Perfect !
On the sandbags (I assure you, in the final version, it is not the same result)
And here for a shoulder of an ODST.
3h to create decals that go on the boxes of ammunition.
Let's go !
The result.
Small session of drying at the edge of the window after the varnish layer.
The human shield finally paint!
2 future impacts of plasma.
A small decal inside.
And those outside.
