The sheets
I found at Home Depot come 6 to a pack and measure 14.5" x
48" and cost $6.99. That comes to $1 a sheet !!! Remember
this Diorama was initially created for Celebration V
- for
your own home version, you can if you prefer make a WIDER Hallway
to say... fit your display shelf. You do have 48" to play
with)
|
|
 |
Start with a 16" mark
on the bottom and Top of the sheet. This will be your Hallways'
WIDTH.
|
|
 |
Now cut along the 2 marks with
your Utility knife. Make sure to have a NEW Blade, as this
helps give you the BEST CUT. Styrofoam and Foamboard are the
ENEMIES of Xacto Blades. Put the BIG sheet aside for the time
being.
|
|
 |
Using the shorter or the two pieces,
you need to make a 8" Mark
at the Bottom and Top of your sheet.
|
|
 |
Take your Utility kinkfe and slice
down your styrofoam.
|
|
 |
You now have TWO pieces, The Bigger
Bottom piece (16" x 8") will be your FLOOR. Now grab your Top
piece...
|
|
 |
... and measure 5.75" on the Left
and Right TOP end
|
|
 |
Slice this excess off with your
Utility Knife. This will be your Wall. But first you must shorten
the length...
|
|
 |
Measure 14.5" at the Top and
Bottom of the RIGHT side.
|
|
 |
Now slice this chunk away with
your Utility Knife. You should now have your Wall piece measuring
14.5" x 5.75"
|
|
 |
Now go back to
your Original BIG sheet.
