There are a few models whose poses alone sell the "celebration" theme. Molly 2 is one of them.

I completely agree. I can almost hear Ian Travis' interpretation of an overenthusiastic Molly trying (and probably failing) to convince that zombie nephilim how much fun it's going to be😅

I also love that the models' bases are incorporated into the ground, presumably so they can pop out to use, rotate, etc, but still fit into the diorama. Very cool.

Phenomenal!  Certainly one of the weirdest bases I've ever seen, but you've got two Undead (check!), a jack o' lantern by a creepy lamppost (check), incredible painting (check) - looks like a winner!

I have a total soft spot for dioramas that allow the models to be removed for play still, and they are often technically much harder to pull off while still looking good. You have absolutely managed this, everything about this scene is beautifully painted and sculpted and of course it really Will be amazing good fun for all!

As I love nekima I forgot Molly could how this guy.   

I really like the lighting you did.   Very strong shadows and great subtle highlights.   I do wonder what would happen if you pushed everything a tone brighter so I could see the darker areas better.

Thank you all for the encouraging comments. 

This is my first dioarama ever, so I felt a bit in over my head (soooo much modelling😱), but I think it turned out fairly in the end.

I generally paint for gaming, and use these contests as motivation to "get things done", and that's why i decided to slot in the minis. But I still had to consider lighting and OSL from the streetlamp. I wanted the contrast between the lamp and surroundings to set the atmosphere, but I get the point @Michael Crawford pointed out about it being a bit dark (the highlights are there, I swear!). I will try to take some new photos and will put them up on my instagram account soon. (then maybe the text "Malifaux" on the signpost will be visible as well 😆)

I'm actually quite surprised no one else painted up Molly 2 for this. She litterally ooozes undead celebration. Even though I am neverborn to the core, I enjoyed painting her up for this contest. The emotional contrast between an overly enthusiastic Molly and the rather apathetic zombie nephilim was something I really wanted to play on.
