I drew inspiration for this diorama from a drawing by Kan Liu on Artstation
https://www.artstation.com/artwork/QrKxvr
The desert background in the drawing reminded me of the backgrounds in 80's airbrush paintings of chrome robots (eg. Hajime Sorayama), and I wanted to convey the effect of showing the background behind the girl. So I went with a cyclorama background and lots of chrome, trying to blend the foreground into it convincingly.
Everything in the diorama is hand-made. The girl and bike is constructed with apoxie sculpt and greenstuff over an armature of wire and plastic bits, and the backdrop is made from chipboard and foam. I aimed to pose the model so it would look as if she was sitting on the bike, instead of holding up the bike.
The girl is 37mm tall to eye-line, and the entire diorma is 175mm tall.

Such an amazing work! In the first picture I thought the background was not part of the diorama,Impressive!

Thank you Matteo! I'm glad it has the intended effect. There was a time when I thought I couldn't pull off what I had in mind, but I'm glad it worked.
