Project model railway #21 - Mansion Diorama

in creative •  6 years ago 

Autumn is comming and this means Halloween is comming as well.

I might be a bit early, but I've already completed this years' halloween diorama.
And this is his story:

As you might already know I am using a pre-defined shape for my dioramas so that they fit into the scenery.
I wanted to have the mansion a bit higher than the surroundings so I made a little lift with plaster.
And don't forget to drill a hole for the wires ;)

The building itself is from Vollmer but needed some paint to make it look old and abandonned.
From an electronic point of view I've added a red blinking light, a steam generator and a sound module. The generator is basically the same as you have it in a steam engine but bigger.

Now some details.
Autumn/Halloween specific I have added a little pumpkin field and some graves. Also mister Death comes to visit us...

Power on
After connecting it to my power source the generator produces steam that crawls down the walls, the red light and music adds some more spooky ambient:

Since dtube doesn't let me upload stuff (as usual 'unknown error') you can find it here:

What's next?
I am sill working on my open air cinema diorama, but I am lacking proper cars by now. So this will take some time. In the meantime our little village "Klein Waldberg" will grow. More from this will come soon.

If you want to see the project grow and the final result, don't forget to follow! If you have any questions, do not hesitate to ask in the comments :)
