Pushing the limits of a vignette, this 16 by 16 depiction of Jaffa's bustling markets and alleyways was a very enjoyable build. The dio is loosely based on a concept sketch drawn by Joseph Sapulich, but features a great many other details. The project began with an experiment in cobblestone streets, and while I think this technique could be improved, I am pleased with the way it turned out. Other details include a clothesline, a market stall, the furnished interior of a sort of yeshiva, a blind beggar, an alley cat, a rabbi, and a worker with a cart of wood. I have been trying to figure out a time period to place the creation in, but I can't decide on anything definitive, so help me out! Other than that, enjoy, and make sure to rate and comment!

WOW Paul! This has a lot packed into it for a 16x16. I love the cobblestone SNOT idea. May I use that? (Credit to you of course). And the people are well done and the clothesline is innovative and representative. I am stumped on the time period as well. Oh, well, it is a great vig! 5/5 I'm glad you like it! And yes, you may absolutely use the cobblestone technique! |

Awesome! The cobblestone is cool. I got this drawing from this one artist that was titled "Port of Jaffa". Think you could add that to this M.O.C.? Well... there's this little thing called "copyright"... |

Amazing overall scene, I really like the use of the Brickforge horn as a shofar. Nice architecture too, it has that really cramped Middle Eastern feeling. Your dioramas are awesome, dude! |
