The major idea of this diorama was the sardine box billboard! So now let's finish off the diorama by adding it! - Along with some miniature fishermen.

I purchased the fishermen from Amazon. They are HO Scale miniatures. You can check them out on Amazon here

I made the billboard by cutting away the front surface of the box and building a balsa wood structure around it. Then I added lights that look like billboard lights.

I cut some holes in the shell of the diorama then glued the billboard into it.

And that's it! We have made a nice looking diorama using a whole variety of techniques.
