I spent some time this weekend cutting out the Styrofoam in the shapes of the buildings for the diorama. Since the Styrofoam is only 3/4 of an inch thick, I had to cut out each shape twice and tape it together. I have a couple more buildings to tape together, then I will be putting on the paper mache.
In case anyone thinks about trying this, cutting Styrofoam is a big mess. Keep your vacuum cleaner handy.
Tip of the Day. Use a scrap piece of Styrofoam as a sander block to knock off loose pieces of Styrofoam. It will clean up a cut edge nicely.
