Woodsy's terrific Moonbase HQ build has re-kindled my long dormant desire to do something with the stuff laying around here. But I digress.
Many years ago, I bought several clear acrylic domes with the intent that I could somehow use them in just such an effort. They are around 10" outside diameter and I did in fact use them in a quickie space toy photo shoot back in 2016.
In that set-up, larger toys were used as my SpaceX/Golden Astronaut collection was still in its fledgling stages. I have been wondering what purpose these could serve in a diorama featuring the smaller 1/72-ish scale figures and accessories. A couple of things came to mind:
-they could house equipment
-as small 'parks' or recreation areas. Moonbaser's would enter the dome through a hatch and there would be plants, walkways, benches. Yeah, I know that sounds a bit Earthy but it's just a wild idea.
-perhaps just a nice viewing area with a little more elbow room than the modules like an atrium?
I'm open for ideas!
