Thank you Mark and Jonathan for your comments.
I try to add a little humour when I can on a diorama, such as a dog cocking its leg, etc. The thing is I never know what direction my projects are going from the start, the end is usually different from my original plans.
As to the drop sheets, they're just face tissue paper, cut to shape and size, then painted the colour required and scrunched up a few times. Then folded and glued into position.

Mick, a really well constructed model and diorama. Your weathering really pulls the whole story together.
