24x 14 inches. I did try smaller but trying to get the perspective right was hard.
I know...well nigh impossible, I would've thought...that's why James and Matt, for example, added smaller scale models to their diorama.

Have a great show. :grin:

Looks like a nice bit of a green and pleasant land. Well done Ollie.

How much space? That small detail would've been useful to know before the gang set up shop today. ;-)

Look at your first post at the top of this page, you clearly read the size. I strongly suggest you now appologise to me for your rude attitude in the above post. I expect an appology by the end of sunday.

Ollie, 24" x 14" are two of the 3 dimensions usually required and I'm guessing that that's the size of the backdrop. Obviously, your models will be sticking out some distance from this and I'm sure James will be able to organise accordingly.

Oh yes the third dimension, I'd forgotten about that. Something Beany has been pushing the envelope on ;-)

Everything is tickety-boo. Ollie's build fitted nicely on the table, finding room for the box it came in was required some jiggling :ha:

Then there's the 4th dimension of time, with items appearing and disappearing throughout the show and space being there and then not! ;-)

Glad everything went okay, James.
