Disney Haunted Mansion Attic Diorama

Here are some shots from my diorama of the Attic in Disney's Haunted Mansion. There is still a little bit of detail work to do, but this one is mostly finished. Next up is the hallway with the Demon Clock, wall pictures and one of the doors.

Here is the basic box for the Disneyland Haunted Mansion Attic diorama. Just like the Conservatory diorama, this one is 1 foot square. The back wall slopes in a bit. The back wall, and the floor are simply some wood look paneling that I did up in Photoshop.

Here the paneling and flooring is fully installed. Also installed is a brace and joists, made from some foam core with more of the wall printing glued on for detail. The picture is from the Disneyland Haunted Mansion that I found online, one of the Bride pictures. I placed it into a frame I found at a crafts store.
Disneyland Haunted Mansion Attic Diorama, stuff collected for the display, mostly paper models.
Here is some of the stuff I collected to fill up the Attic. In front, of course, is the Bride. This is a Disneyland Toy and stands about 6 inches tall. Just to her right is a vase with flowers and to the far right is a wedding cake. Both of these are from a Party Store and are candles used for weddings. The lantern in the front center is a Colman givaway that I have had around forever. Most of the rest is an assortment of paper models that I found all over the web. Different boxes, trunks, furniture, etc.  The wrinkled picture in the background is a printout of a photo of the actual Disneyland Haunted Mansion Attic that I am using for inspiration. I am not making an exact replica, but it will feel right. The Demon Clock is for the Hallway diorama.
Disneyland Haunted Mansion Attic Diorama finished, except for cobwebs
Here is everything placed into the Diorama. I still need to move a few things around, take off that black base on the Bride, glue everything down and add cobwebs, but this is basically it. There is another picture of the Bride from the actual ride to the left of the Bride, in a small frame from a crafts store. It is kind of hard to make out in this photo but in the back right corner is a worn out mirror, this is actually a Disneyland Haunted Mansion Toy from McDonald's, I painted the frame gold instead of the purple plastic it came with. It is sitting on a plastic trunk that is another McDonald's Disneyland Haunted Mansion toy. Also impossible to make out in the photo are the cards on the table, those are actual doll house sized wedding cards from the turn of the last century. With the right spooky lighting this will look great.
