Which brings me to my next, and most frequently used set - the staple of may a Toyville tale. Essentially the walls are just that coloured mounting board again propped up against proper walls, tables, boxes or whatever assorted junk there is lying around...

... and fine and dandy it all looks...

...

... but ...

... the card is prone to bowing and, as they're just leaning, the walls are often in danger of getting knocked or blown over (which is why bits of 1/6th furniture are pushed against them - providing extra support..."

"... a problem added to should you try to add a third wall..."

"but why do I even need a third wall?"

"heh, as if I want to be in one of your stories again... talking of which you'd better have not brought any of your Olsen Twins or Nazi Zombies along with you...

"this way a bit more... more..."

"Of course, introducing a 3rd flimsy wall into the equation can only help to amplify the previous problems...

"..oops..."

"Well, Two are fine for diorama shoots... but a bit limiting when it comes to photostories - ok lads - bring it on over..."

 

"oops?"

"what the f..."

"Which can be a bit of bugger. Or worse if you're halfway through a shoot on a complicated set..."

"You bagheaded git... you've broken my living room!"

"Plus, of course, if you're using walls to support walls then it gets a little tricky to get different camera angles..."

"Pah! I'll give you camera angles - and you're going to have trouble taking pictures from where I'm going to bloody shove it..."

"Uhoh... time to adjurn to the workshop..."
