Current/Final? Progress:

It took me a while to decide on a game for this. I tried to think of my fondest moments from gaming to boil down to a diorama-suitable scene, and had actually chosen two other games before finally settling on this glorious masterpiece of 1994 nostalgia. Its style and sense of humor should be great for a project like this.
If you've never played/heard of it, it was for the Sega Genesis. Two teams of cartoony soldiers fight to kill the opposing team using flamethrowers/rocket launchers/etc...It was an RTS but played more like a modern day MOBA, and had the charm of TF2 before there was even the original TF mod.
The best moment in the game, hands down, is when two opposing soldiers engage in a fist fight, pausing the entire war until they're finished. So that's the moment I'll go for in the diorama. I'd also like to have someone drowning in the completely opaque water and just other random fun stuff in general.
Never done low poly. Never rigged a character. This should be fun.

Going to start this tonight and work on a block out.
I'm probably just going to create the one and paint it differently if necessary but they're all very similar as it is. Still just flat colors, not going to texture anything until I've worked more of the scene out.
And another quick update of the current scene with super basic soldier placement.
Trying to get everything blocked out today. Posted a tentative schedule on the Google Doc as well.
Also trying out Sketchfab finally.

I love the new scene. Much stronger.
I look forward to seeing it develop even more!
Another quick update with the buildings in. Going to probably redesign and texture the characters tomorrow.
Here's the reference from the game:
