About product

Warning signs 1:6 for a diorama

The sheet from the manufacturer ETA diorama is a paper accessory for building dioramas and vignettes in the large 1:6 scale. Warning signs belong among the elements that give a scene an understandable story — they bound a space, suggest a dangerous zone and explain why the figures are moving along this particular way. The product is printed paper, so you cut the signs out and complete them with a supporting structure of your own.

Backing and making the support

Paper on its own is too soft for a sign. So back the cut-out motif with a thin plastic sheet, card or thin sheet metal — only then does it look like a solid board and it does not buckle. Make the post or the peg from a plastic profile, a wooden skewer or wire and attach it to the reverse. At 1:6 scale it pays to suggest the anchoring as well, for example wire mounts or nails from sanded wire.

Placement in the scene

A sign looks natural when it does not stand perfectly vertical. A slight tilt, a bent post or a board hanging by one corner only give away time and use. Guide tape between pegs, low stakes or a little heap of soil around the foot of the post will round out the transition between the sign and the terrain. Mask the joint with the base with pigment and fine static material.

Aging and durability

Age the paper with a muted wash, add scuffed edges suggested with a lighter or on the contrary a darker paint and fine traces of corrosion with pigment at the mounts. Because a sign in a diorama tends to be exposed to touch during handling, spray it with matte clear coat after patinating — the clear coat strengthens the surface and at the same time brings the sheen in line with the surrounding materials of the scene.

Who the sheet is for

  • Builders of large dioramas and vignettes in 1:6 scale.
  • Modelers who build terrain scenes with a marked-out space.
  • Collectors of large figures who build the setting around them.
  • Anyone interested in combining paper printing with a structure of their own.

It is a printed paper accessory for a diorama. Glue, paints and other material are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.

FAQ

The product is a printed paper sheet. You add the supporting structure from a plastic profile, a skewer or wire.

Back it with thin plastic, card or sheet metal. Paper on its own is too soft for a board.

Heap soil or pigment around the foot of the post and add fine static material. The transition then does not look artificial.

The make-up of the signs is determined by the manufacturer of the sheet. Once unpacked, lay the boards out according to the actual printing and only then back and cut them.
