I always wanted to build a scrap yard. Today it finally happened and this post shows you how...
As with all of my dioramas I started with a base of specified shape to make it fit on my model railway setup. A brown base color avoids bright spots.
After it dried up I added some basic foliage and a fence. Made it look a bit rusty and shabby. After all it's scrap yard.
One major thing a scrap yard needs is... scrap. Obviously.
So I bought the cheapest model cars I could get and let them have some "accidents". A matt brownish airbrush did the aging process.

Luckily I got some tiny pre-made scrap parts so I didn't need to build tiny barrels and tires on my own.
Put everything together and add some tough guys to manage everything.
And a dog of course...

Have you found the little girl in pink? ;)
Was actually a really nice little project. Took me about 6h to finish. Drying took up quite some time though.
