Not many would have used paper clay in dioramas as not all paper clay are the same in formulation. My personal experience that began as an impromptu act while manning a paper clay stall during the school holidays in KL Plaza was crafting a tooth pick holder over a film container as a watch tower. This attracted the devoted attention of a little form one boy. Casually I handed the project to him to complete while having to attend to customers. To his great satisfaction he completed it.

Next morning a bunch of his schoolmates and friends from Jalan Kanaga came to see his piece and out of the blue the idea to complete a castle under seige materialised. Along came their parents too curious what went on in the plaza as project was not an organised school project.

That was in 1988. Today this impromptu master piece 2ft by 3 ft can be viewed in www.multifilla.com a section under paper clay. Credit goes to this bunch and some could be master modellers today and they are:
