AFRICAN SAVANNAH UPDATED


The original diorama seemed a little cramped. As I decided to create a wider opening for this diorama, I added twigs to represent trees in the foreground. These serve several purposes:- to hide the edges of the background, to frame the diorama, and also to heighten the sense of false perspective by using more 3-dimensional props in the foreground.

The fluorescent tube and part of the upper edges of the background. These were masked by twigs to represent trees. The twigs were selected based on their natural coloured and mottled spotting to create foreground interest. Foliage was added to represent leaves..

 The diorama lit at night.

The diorama with the scene widened, taken in daylight.
