Final to be four ship diorama. Rectangle shaped.
Given two 1/450 ships, is it best to position two 1/400 ships in the background or two 1/500 ships in the foreground or what? Do not have two other 1/450 ships for this scheme.
Or scrap and use only the two like scale 1/450 ships?
The first thing that came to my mind was two separate diorama bases that will match up to each other (front to back; or left to right) with the smallest of seams between them. The water would go right up to the edge of each base.
And I'm think of this with photography in mind and a sky background. With that said, making a piece of water base with no ships on it, could be used to slide in between the two bases with the ships on them.
Future such dioramas could be done in this same manner; swapping out one dio for another, etc.
I did this trick with these two models which are on their own separate bases with a piece of water between them
