Pillar of Autumn Diorama - WIP

[ElkMidget]

Hello there.

I haven't been on here lately thanks to school and other related things - but I managed to find time for this. Well, sort of.

As you guys can see here, I'm taking a crack at building a diorama of the near-last level of Halo: Reach - the Pillar of Autumn. The thing's gonna be large (bad TWSS joke), but it should be large enough to incorporate the McFarlane action figures into it, and it's gonna be a long time before this gets finished.

Day One:

Day Two:

Day Three:

No Zealot wortzorz?

More to come.

I'm going to be following this intently! Fantastic idea, I can't wait to see this finished. What are you using for the ground and what will you be using for the scenery/buildings etc?

Thaaaaaaank you Metalfire! and as far as the buildings go, I'll be using foam board with chipboard for the detailing , and for the ground I'll be using scenery foam on top of Plywood. This is just one part right now; there will be more to it. And for he scenery, I'll be figuring that out... sooner or later. hehe.

Updates: Day 3

Will be working on it more tonight.

Fudz, I wish I could do the ACTUAL Pillar of Autumn. :/ But due to the lack of space, I'm working on the Halo: Reach level instead. You know the part where you have to deliver Cortana to Keyes and then get your hands on the MAC gun while fighting your way past Zealots after that?

Here's what I'm working on, credits go to ElectricBlueSkies and whoever runs the site. http://www.electricblueskies.com/haloverse/halo-reach/postcards-from-reach-the-pillar-of-autumn/ (safelinksaresafe.) Scroll down to the last 3 pics and there ya go.

Updates. yesyesyes.

Began to glue together one of the modules, as this is going to be set up in a modular manner for filming purposes.

Will have moar (or more) updates later on.
