nice first diorama, explore more. you will be expert in short time.
From the picture, you're already get the scales right for the casting which are most important in scale modelling of diorama as you need to get proper planning, right from the drawing board. Others are required height, windows and doors opening, floor finishes and roof covering. I've been in architectural scale modelling many years back, which my task are to built up scale house, factories and some garage. There are also technique of doing outdoor landscaped, minitures trees and shrubs to make the model more real in presentation and same to interior too.

but if u ask me why i didn't do any diorama on the custom section, i still prefer custom cars, cars and cars only...hehe. maybe due to the long working hours in that field (from 8 am till 4.00 am everyday) makes me quit the job within 12 months and i swear to stay away from it forever..

very unlikely to get the workers or figurines in 1/64 scales in local market. Probably you can find it on the ebay.Wish you all the luck.

very exciting planning on you dio, can't wait for it, hehe..
