Diorama Examples

Looking for examples of dioramas so you can make one yourself? Here are some examples (With Pictures and tutorials) of dioramas I have made. Hopefully they will inspire you to make some terrific dioramas of your own.

These dioramas run the gamut from simple, yet creative, shoebox dioramas to a very extensive seven foot long medieval style diorama that has a castle with real lighting and a working waterfall. Whatever your skill level is I hope you find these examples of my work to be inspiring in your diorama pursuit.

Note too that all of these dioramas I have made come with a complete tutorial on how to make one yourself.
