Album info
This diorama was my first ever attempt at one. The base measures 4 feet by 4 feet and was built to display in a case at the Golden Hawks Recreation Centre in Miramichi New Brunswick. I scratchbuilt the hangar façade and tarmac using foamboard and some CelluClay mix for the terrain. It depicts one of the actual maintenance buildings from the wartime training base at Chatham.
