Military Diorama

See your group

Let´s create

Military Technology Dioramas.

Step 1: Decide the scale and the scene.

Talk to your group about the topic you

were assigned to decide the scale or size

of your diorama and what situation you

would like to present.

For example: a military base or post, a

military operation, the construction of a

bailey bridge, air combat or frigates

escorting a carrier, etc.

Step 2: Start collecting the materials.

Start collecting the human, vehicles,

aircrafts or naval vessels figures in

miniature for the interior of your project.

Step 3: Decide on a background.

You can paint or draw your own wallpaper

or anything else you can find. Remember

that the background has to be consistent

with your figures and scale.

Step 4: Choose a container.

It can be a box, a board of wood, glass etc.

Remember that your project has to be light

but sturdy and moveable at the same time.

What is a Diorama?

It is a scene that captures a moment in time.

It displays multiple objects in miniature or

life size with the purpose of interacting and

presenting a situation.

There are two main categories of dioramas:

1. Dioramas for fun or hobby.

2. Dioramas for teaching and instruction.

Let´s take the second option focused to our

military course.

Dear Students:

Remember to do your best

effort when creating your

dioramas, but the most

important th ing is to

communicate your ideas in the

best way as possible using

military terminology and

correct grammar structures.
