This is incredible, I am looking forward to seeing the figures all placed in it. This is really cool.

Thank you very much !
I do not know at all. But one thing is sure, my next project is much different than this one.
Normally you do not have to wait very long, most of the painting is done.

Well, as you probably noticed, we are Monday. I did not make my last Sunday's update because I have a bad connection and yesterday I had no internet : so update was impossible...
So I will do it tonight but I accidentally deleted all the latest photos of the diorama.
But I have advanced: the paint is done at 95% ! So it will not be long before finishing but I still have to do :
1 - Assembly : assemble and glue decor,
2 - Characters : installation of figurines in the decor mounted,
3 - Details : adding a lot of little things to make detailed and realistic as possible,
4 - Finishes : rework if any do.
5 ° - The result show you the finished product!
Otherwise this week I started and almost finished painting the exterior walls, varnished interior walls and floors. I finished the table, coffee table, lockers, chairs, sofas, wall of sandbags, the front door and plant container.
I'm really sorry for the pictures but I'll catch up next Sunday, there will be a lot of pictures I assure you !!

Well I'm late, I know, but we must not blame me, right now my internet connection is not at its best. Moreover I become increasingly busy and next week I take the job so I will have even less time for the diorama. But it will not make me stop, just slow down.
I have not worked a lot last week so I have not advanced, however, I started painting the exterior walls. So no pictures of those below in this update, it will be next Sunday!
That's what I can show you :
A simple kit to make a locker.
The putty product many many dust ...
A "screenshot" of Halo ODST to know that there are marked on the sandbags.
Here are the decals.
I spend a gloss coat before applying the decals.
The result !
Even the snack time ! : xD
Table.
Coffee table.

Thank you CLOTHAR !
Hello everyone,
I advance slowly the diorama because I go back to work. I hope to show you pictures soon.
Meanwhile I need you : I have a 3D model on SketchUp and I wish to cut it into several pieces (for 3D printer). However I do not know how to do, if you master well SketchUp and you are available to help me, send me a private message please.
I count on you !

Two things: You have the patience of a saint, I couldn't do this for 3 and a half years! And I have never seen so much detail ever!!
Subscribed. Cannot wait to see the end.

Thank you very much !!
I'm sorry for all this time without news, but the job takes me 6 days a week so free time is rare...
Enough of lamentations, let's get serious ! I stopped the diorama, no time and no motivated too... It's too ambitious project... ARE YOU SICK ?! NEVER, I will not stop! I say I will finish it and I will : indeed we approach more and more the end of this part of the diorama !
More seriously, despite the work I try to progress again and again, I do not go bad I think. After you judge with pictures but tell you that : I keep some pictures below the elbow so you will not see where really I am !
By what we start ? By this: decoration.
With some paint.
The palms are placed.
And I add plaster to seal them.
An overview of the front door : half open because the mechanical system was destroyed by a Wraith.
An overview of the ground floor : the walls were not glued which explains the shift in the angle.
The first floor.
Thr broken TV !
In painting the concrete (the white dots on the ground are the holes to place objects/figurines : so this is normal).
The new window !
Does it remind you of memories ?
Yes sometimes I'm thirsty !

Here's a small detail aper sheets. I do not know if you've noticed in the game, but there is paper everywhere: on the floor, wall etc.. Here are mine in 1:15 scale (all unique).
Always have green plants !
Little detail had to be seen during the HALO ODST campaign, going in dark corners !
Here's how I created it:

So happy to see this build pick up again. Keep digging in to get it finished. My project finished out 5 1/2 years after the game it was based on and it was still worth it. Your results so far are awesome and we can't wait to see it finished.
