Forum name: Dragon Wyrm
Submission name: Ideological Discourse
Description: The idea behind this diorama was the ideological discourse between an abbot and a cult leader. They discuss the differences in dealing with live sacrifices while referencing their holy books and enjoying a good smoke. The sacrifice isn't too happy about this.
There is a mural depicting a merging of the two beliefs while above the window is a relief of the same creature. On the other side of the mural is a corridor with a carpet and a painting of Cardinal Richelieu. With an exhausted ghost lying under it. There is no visible door.
Meanwhile, a policeman has gotten a tip about screams coming from this area of the monastery/temple. Noticing that there is an unmapped space with no door to it he is knocking on the wall to find an entrance.
This diorama is modular to allow for changing of the scene. For example, removing the Victorian policeman will make the time period ambiguous.
The materials used were: Foam, Foam Core, Polystyrene Sheets and Apoxy Sculpt.
Sets and Parts Used:
- Classic Fantasy Cultist: Female victim and Head with forehead eye
- Cthulhu Cultists: Hand with cthulhu book.
- Vlad Dracul & the Turks: Corpse
- Monks: Monk head and Hand reading bible
- Classic Fantasy Caravan: Chair for sitting wizard, Sitting wizard body (to which I added the cowl part with Apoxy Sculpt) and Pipe hand (one is shortened and both have smoke removed).
- Victorian Police: Policeman knocking on door
Forum name: John Sullins
