This is breathtaking! Hands down the best diorama!

I am a huge fan of the painted background! Overall great display!

Again this cool water effects)

I am really happy this entry got fixed.   The backdrop is gorgeous, the model blends together with the lightning cracking down. The contrast, the colors, the highlights, and the contrast between the base and the model/backdrop... Just *chef's kiss*! Hands down the best diorama in my opinion. Well-earned 2nd place. ❤️ 

The blend between the background and the model is really nice. The water effects as well are amazing... and it feels to me like they are actually moving in reverse (floating up rather than falling down) which gives it this gathering storm feel. Great work.

Thank you all for the nice comments
I restarted painting and playing about a year and a half I think ... after 10 years of break. And I picked Malifaux of course.

It was my first Diorama and my first entry in a contest !
I'm not so happy with the water effect ... I think it was better without ? You know that you shouldn't try something new for a contest, and yet you do it, right ?
The is another diorama with rain the overachiver category. I'll ask there for advice.

For the background, it's quite the opposite.
I paint sometimes acrylic on canvas, so it was "easy" to make this part right. Next diorama I'll try something more ambitious on that.

Overall, it was a work on constraint has I wanted to join the contest, but didn't got any spare model or time to order something. So I built around what I got.
The only exception was the fishing line I bough.
So yes, got a bunch of red flower that I never new what to do with and ... wyrd called for it!

Thanks for all the other participants, really fun to see the different ideas that came around.
And I really liked this overachiver category thingy.
I guess it gaves motivation for many people to participate.
