That's all I will post of this diorama, as I mentioned you can visit the Flickr album for more images. Thanks for looking!

Oh my goodness, this is amazing! What an awesome castle. A fancy dress party is the perfect way to use all those cool-but-not-on-theme people (definitely stealing that idea one day!)

Thanks, it is great way to make use of all those odd figures you really like but that don't fit in a typical theme. I also have far more of my custom figures in this theme than in any other, and some far more customized than I usually do.

This is amazing Tim  :omg:
I think every year that your castles can't get any better but they do!   :love:
We had thought of doing a Haunted or Halloween Castle diorama at Kirkbean next year - with your permission I may need to "borrow" a few of your ideas!

Just watched all your fantastic photos with my son. Every picture is a story by itself. And so much inspiration for all of us. You really did an amazing job.
If I explain my son how to take klickies appart to make all these great custom figures he will part them all.  :o
He will figure it out soon enough.

It's wonderful!  My favourite things:

The 'owlcote' - with postbox
The black Stagecoach
The pumpkin patch
The hyena on a leash
All the bones in the cell - plus the rabbit
Chimps with wings
The Ogre roasting a pig
The head in a bottle
The alien drinking through a tube

- and all the diverse plants and the variety of klickies are fascinating and brilliant.  Great work!

Absolutely great, marvellous! I especially like the troll cook, hunchback dwarf, black coach, owl house, cave filled with bones, flying monkey, the white figures, the furnished rooms…
All those creations and ideas...
It feels like I have just seen a wonderful fairy tale movie.
Many thanks for sharing.

Wow.  Amazing. As always... Some thoughts...

Love the big dragon on the top of the tower!

And the winged monkeys :) :love:

The "ground" looks amazing too.

And those are REALLY creepy flowers! Worse than the kid eating originals! :0

Ghosts! Ghosts everywhere!

I like your "pirate ghost from the blinky winky advent" - he looks really great like that.

The wabbit with all the bones.. eek.

And tonguello's mermaid! ;D  (ah, I was gonna ask if you made a clone.. but I see it's really her!)

Did I mention I really like the winged monkeys? :love:

The troll with the white apron... :)

And the smoke looks amazing!

Interesting band!

And the alien drinking from the tube - I always wondered what were those thingamajigs for!

The blue transparent guy in the old helmet looks great too. Really interesting.

And who IS the blue man with the elvis-do? Very... colorful. (btw, that woman behind him is carrying a LOT of fruit!)

The rabbit "doc" = :0

I like the interiors too (something that is ALWAYS a struggle for me). The skeleton drinking  :lol:

And the old uk cop in the throne!

The tower landing platform for the witch is a great idea :)

 ;D oh no!  It was a playful metaphor  :giggle: :giggle: :giggle: :giggle:
This one is a northern cousin, tho the family resemblance is strong  :lol:


My favorites are the winged monkeys and "Igor" I LOVE HIM!!!  :love:

Yes, the alien mermaid is a clone of a Tonguello Special Custom® done as a tribute. I figured she was on her way somewhere right? So why not the Wizard's party? I just thought I would sneak her in there and see if anyone noticed.
I think that blue man with the orange Elvis hair may be King of the Oompa Loompas.
The chair under the stairs with the owl, wand and book are a reference to the same thing as the Owlcote.  ;)

Thanks for the comments everyone!

Superb dio, Tim!  :clap:  :clap:
And all those little subscenes and details, I adore it  :)9

Some favourite stuff & details:
the carnivor-plants (awesome!)
the customized ghost-pirate accompanied by the also transparent sculpt-dragon
the superbig tree (I´ve never seen such a big tree before, is the trunk made from parts from one of the treehouses??)
the operating room
the skeleton/bone-cave with the little white rabbit; a nice wink to MP  ;)
the broom-barrel in the tower
etc...

that blue man with the orange Elvis hair

Could he be a custom with the head from a blue bust that came with the Princes-castle Treasure Room?



Btw, I´m not  sure you know Tim, but you yourself are to be seen in your dio, and in your human shape I mean...  ;)
Let´s make this a contest. Who can spot Tim?  ;D
(hint: one has to very closely look at one of the diorama´s pics on Flickr)

Hadoque -
The super big tree uses the trunk from the current tree house set. It does make a really big tree quite nicely, much bigger than the old oaks or the tall fir tree. Yes the blue man uses the head from the treasure room with a matching torso and arms. You don't really see the hands because they are flesh colored so I sort of hid them. I would prefer matching arms and hands but the only way to do that is the oldest style arms without the turning wrists and I don't have the matching color in one of those.
The customized ghost pirate uses the clear arms from the blue and clear android Fi?ure.

Now I have to go look at reflective surfaces and find myself :D

Aha, thanks for explaining. I should go have a look at the instructions of the treehouse.  :)

Another incredible creation.  I must agree with the others that I love the flying monkeys, the giant carnivore plants, the boneyard, and the white ghost folks everywhere, and I like that we never see their faces.  I also notice you still have empty wallspace to stack more bins of playmobil in your room!

Post by: Tiermann on November 16, 2016, 18:22:43
Thanks Kaethe!
The empty space could be used for that eventually, but I actually keep it open as aisle space around the table. Once each time I have a big diorama done I hold an open house for some of my friends so they can come for a viewing. I am often told that they actually see more from the photo sets I do than they are able to notice in person. I found this to be much the same when I visited Miniature Wunderland in Hamburg a few years ago. Big dioramas can be overwhelming to view in person. My next open house will be Sunday the 18th of December for Santa's Workshop (now in progress).

Marvellous!!! :wow:  :apple:

I saw this when you first posted it, but I didn't have the time to leave a comment. It's a wonderful dio, as always, and the photography is beautiful. It's true, browsing through the pictures (many times :) ) gives you a better idea of everything that's there, as opposed to a viewing in real life.
Although I would LOVE to see your creations with my own eyes  8-)

The greenery and the weird flowers look amazing. Lovely to see the white rabbit and the pumpkin patch making a comeback  :love:

The bunny surgeon with his knife ready (hacking away at a cheadless clicky?) is quite disturbing  ;D  Very appropriate for a Halloween party! And the black erm.. alien kid with his doughnut made me laugh :)
The kitchen looks amazing too.

Thanks a lot for sharing the pictures here!!

Amazing dio! I love the way you let the different types of clickies mingle. And the flying chimps! And that poor clicky in a cage hanging off the tower.
