I have built 3 8foot long dioramas. First thing is to plan what hardware is to go on your diorama.
How big you can afford to build it.
Put in say Spitfire about to take off pictures in browser search. This will give a good clue. Did that with both Afghanistan Falklands Diorama. This gives you an idea on terrain vegetation & in Falklands tracks & how they are worn. Fences barns so much information. So lots of vital information from pictures.
This will give a first class start. After that it depends on your imagination in 3d. Close eyes & just think.
A great way is to undulate the ground. I have used polyfiller to create bumps mounds etc before covering with what ever the finish.
Put in as much detail as possible as it makes it interesting. Depending on the size a backdrop makes a better diorama. Many backdrop pictures sky mountian etc are available.
I have a basic plan but will build & change as I go along. One thing it is for me very exciting free to do & change as you wish no rules..
I got the idea here
You can also have a bit of fun
