I want to show you my last work, inspired in skavens' underworld clan fights. Yes, I'm a rat-lover, and I want to do a skaven scene or diorama.

I decided to made another sewer, but not a futuristic one (as you can see in my Ogre of the Sewers: http://lamoradadeconnann.blogspot.com/2009/04/el-ogro-de-la-cloaca-w40k-ogre-of.html). I decided to represent a real sewer, like you can see in medieval towns, with a lot of bricks, dampness and dirt.

For the bricks I used cork, very easy to cut and paint it, and very light, perfect for my idea.

I made a little conversion in my rats, only I converted their weapons (I made a new sword and a large torch).

When I painted the scene I used my poor airbrush, brushes and a lot of techniques (washes, rusts...) to get a sewer. But something was wrong... I needed a poisoned atmosphere... and that's why I painted the torch with green color!

I'm very happy with the final result, because I enjoyed a lot with it. Now I hope you like it!!

That being the only nitpick out the way...
Gratz Connan it looks ace! ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/329382/2144089.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/329382/2144089.page GMT Underworld Wars http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/329382/2144150.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/329382/2144150.page GMT Re:Underworld Wars

Very cool, love to see diorama modeling. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/329382/2144180.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/329382/2144180.page GMT Underworld Wars
Im not talking the Cartoony contrasting that so many "professionals" make use of, just a little brighter to make some details stand out a bit more.

Other than that, fantastic job. I love the way the cork turned out. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/329382/2144231.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/329382/2144231.page GMT Underworld Wars

Yeah they do, the bends in rain gutters sometimes look just like it.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/329382/2144254.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/329382/2144254.page GMT Underworld Wars ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/329382/2144369.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/329382/2144369.page GMT Re:Underworld Wars

Those are overlapping segments to create curvature. The segments are laid so as not to make traps which could lead to blockages.
If you really think that is the same as a bendy drinking straw please don't take up plumbing as a career.

Apologies to Connann for the nonsense.

Agree with Neil, it makes the dio very atmospheric, and well photographed too.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/329382/2144602.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/329382/2144602.page GMT Re:Underworld Wars http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/329382/2144756.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/329382/2144756.page GMT Underworld Wars http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/329382/2144770.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/329382/2144770.page GMT Re:Underworld Wars http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/329382/2144781.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/329382/2144781.page GMT Re:Underworld Wars
The back of that entire curved segment is smooth and seamless,

Precisely.
Which is unlike a bendy straw. Think of its longitudinal section.

My ONLY and very MINOR criticism was that the straw in the dio still looks like a straw to me.
Having seen your picture of a drainpipe, it still looks like a straw.

Now if you wish to continue the pissing contest, how about we meet up in New York and see who can get it over the Empire State Building.
If I'm late just start without me...]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/329382/2144853.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/329382/2144853.page GMT Re:Underworld Wars

your a card chibi, that was a good one and no mistake^^

teaches me to not use straws for pipes...^^

otherwise a very outstanding if somewhat monochrome diorama (the overall brownishness is a bit much) but i like the light source effect you did.
