| I picked up these kids water pistols, at my local bargain store, for a couple of pounds. balsa wood for the base, and wire mesh for the fence, make up the raw materials for the diorama. |
| Here I have cut down the water pistols, to get the shapes and designs that I am looking for, the idea I was after was to achieve a look of industrial chemical and gas tanks, |
| Here are the cut down pieces glued to the balsa wood with hot glue, |
| this is the final layout, and I have started shaping the balsa base, and adde milliput to give a little more in the way of texture, on the ground. |
| Trial run with the figures in place, before final glueing the goblin is held in position, with a steel rod that goes down the barrel of one of the pistols, and I drilled into his glider at a 45degree angle and glued the rod to achieve the downward position above spidey |
