This is the second part of the article where CK Tang shares the steps of creating a diorama base.
In this 2-part article, CK Tang shows us how he created the Grave Guardian diorama. This first part focuses on the figure construction and painting.
This is my first Gundam diorama, I always have soft spot for special force subject, I wanted to crate a jungle setting diorama with some Gundam kits, the basic idea is around a Freddie special force recon MS team heading up river passing by a team of LSSC crews. The LSSC crews were in awe with the mighty MS, one of them wave to the MS “Hi there, Big Fellows …..” Hence the title of this dio.
Here’s my painted Roman Tribune Bust. I’ve use a mix media of Humbrol, Tamiya Acrylic and water-base poster color.
Yes, U heard me right, water-base poster color (water color to be exact local manufactured brand BUNCHO)… similar to those use by kids in the school.
In our second feature, we highlight MINIATURE HOBBY. (UPDATE 2017: MINIATURE HOBBY NO LONGER HAS AN OUTLET IN MALAYSIA)
This second part wraps up the construction of the kit with a little addition from Lion Roar’s workable clamps.
All through the years, the largest figures I’ve painted ever are in 120mm scale. This is my first attempt painting a much larger 200mm scale bust. From what I understand, the larger the scale, the more challenging it is to paint (espacially the human face).

This is the first of a series of articles to feature local hobby shop and enterprises in Malaysia related to fine scale modelling. We hope that these features will be useful for those who have been searching in vain for the ‘local watering holes’ in the country.
