Really awesome build, great job👍 I love the drop boxes, was looking for more for my. Are these from kits or scratch build? And the walls are build too stone by stone? Looking great.
The base and figures match perfectly. The vegetation is superb looking. The cactus makes it all stand out so well. You have me itching to do a diorama build now. Loved it. I’m a dedicated fan from now on. Thank you for sharing this.
Thank you very much for watching and your support. Happy to hear you like my work and I even could animate you to start a diorama too. What more can I ask for?🤗
@@biberhunter_scale_modelsThanks very much for replying to my comment. Like the work you are doing so l subscribe to your channel to improve mine to get some great ideas. Thanks DD.
Excellent work and attention to detail . I've several dioramas at various build stages and am on here looking for ideas etc , what I enjoy the most is when a model , vignette and/or diorama draws you in and captures your imagination which is exactly the effect and impact your work has . Well done and beautifully done .
The diorama base and terrain are fantastic. The details are amazing. My only criticism would be the color of the uniforms that the German Fallschirmjagers are painted as. The correct German Fallschirmjager uniform they wore during the invasion of Crete in 1941, was pale fieldgreen colored jump smocks, blue-grey Luftwaffe issued tunic, medium field grey trousers, and dark greenish-grey helmets. Those are the correct colors for 1941 Crete. The German Fallschirmjagers didn't start wearing beige/ochre colored uniforms until N. Africa and splinter pattern camo jump smocks until Sicily/Italy campaigns. Afterall the German Fallschirmjagers were originally nicknamed 'The Green Devils". Take it from someone who served in the 82nd Airborne who knows his history... especially regarding Paratroopers. 🙂 Other than that, your diorama of Crete is spot on. Cheers!
Thank you very much, really happy you like my work. And yes, I am not 100% accurate in my works, I sometimes choose look or practical things over being completely accurate. But with the splintercamo I have to disagree. I checked it online before and I found sources which said they started using the splinter camouflage with the Crete invasion, the pattern itself existed since the 1930s. Not that it does matter much now, but I am sure about that😅
Great vídeo And Great work. Congrats. You’re an inspiration. Easy explain beautiful diorama. The ground, vegetation, the thecnic. If you alow me, the teres looking amazing But they aren’t a olive tree. I have plenty in my country. But yours very good. Thank you. You Rock it
Thank you very much, happy to hear you like my work in general. Yes you are right, these is a not very realistic olive tree, I should have spent more time in research on how they look. Lesson learned for the next time👍😉
Great video - really nice build👌 Groundwork looks great, a lot of time & effort we’ll paid off!. Cactus & tree really nice addition too, nice to see a different location setting as well. Nice job🙂👍
Thanks a lot, happy to read🙏 Not at all, it evaporates completely. I had no problems so far that it attackes paint or any other material👌 I use glue and the spray from Bergswerk, very good stuff👌
Thank you very much, very happy to hear you like my work and appreciate all the details😊 the foam cutter is a cheap device from Amazon, called ATG. Not sure if this is a real brand. I would recommend the Proxxon cutter if it is possible for you, as it is bigger and seems like it's more accurate. 👍
...such a pleasure to see you at work creating this absolute masterpiece.....so much attention for details....jawdropping beautiful.....are (any of) your models for sale?....all the best....
Thank you very much, really happy to hear 😊 I think details are what make scale models unique, so I pay some extra attention to them. And no, I don't sell any models, I build them for me, but thank you for your interest 🙏
@@biberhunter_scale_models .....building and working on that stone wall...painting the rocks...now that's another level of craftsmanship....and yes I understand why you don't sell your models...they simply are way too beautiful to sell....
@@DIEWELTMusicChannel yes they are kind of heart things I want to do and no one will pay for the time and effort I put into them, it wouldn't be economically 😅
What is the German Soldier kit number? Diorama looks fantastic, l have used "Aquarium Gravel" as walls and roads for guite awhile. Only a suggestion, your hand made wall is perfect for Anzio or Crete.
Vielen Dank🙏 puh, ich zähle aus gutem Grund die Stunden nicht😅 werde aber so um die fünf Wochen dran gesessen haben, halt immer hier und da in der Freizeit.
Well, this caught me a bit off guard, and i am glad it did. Great build up to final reveal . love the process of layer of fine detail application. was not sure at all about boxed cactus, but my god. what a transformation.. Stone work patience paid off. brilliant effect. new subscription added. ( please slow down paint info timing. as it scrolls to fast to get detail.. Thank you for uploading, ATVB2U .

Thank you very much for watching and your support. Happy to hear you like my work, always nice when all the work is recognized. The cacti where a challenge, wasn't sure if I would be able to make them look somehow natural, happy it worked out. Yes it's always kind of hard to find a good mix of showing things and don't make the video too long so it doesn't become boring. Thanks again for watching and your feedback🙏
It's a cheaper device from Amazon called AGT, don't know if that's the brand🤔 well, it works okay, but if you can I would recommend the proxxon device which is bigger and seems to make straighter cuts, but if not this thing should help you too👌
The foam cutter is a no brand device from amazon, you should find it if you look for hot wire or foam cutter if it's available in your country. Proton has some brand cutters but I did not use them, so I don't know how good they really are.
A wonderful job! Just a few observations because as a Greek I can see that some things are wrong, and it's a real pitty for such a beautiful diorama. 1) Yes, there are cactus in Crete, but not so many and not these species (are mostly aloe). 2) The colors on the olive tree are correct, but not its shape. It should be at least half the height and without so much low branching if it is a domesticated tree, or with much more low branching if wild. 3) The drystone (ξερολιθιά) representation is very nice, but since these structures are to protect the arable land, its interior could not be full of stones and cacti (unless, of course, the arable land has long been abandoned). Congratulations again on your beautiful work, and sorry if I came across as "pedantic"
Thank you very much, happy you like it in general. And yes, I see that there are things that you as Greek notice are incorrect, and i totally understand your problem here😅 it's just that I didn't do as much research on vegetation as I maybe should have done, and as I tried to create a landscape that would pass a s Crete without too much effort in research 😁 it's possibly like Americans think all Germans are wearing leather pants😅 it's too late now to change things now, but I will keep that in mind to prepare myself better for future projects 👍
Respekt, absolut perfekt!!!👍👍👍
Thank you very much, really happy to hear 🙏😊
Könntes du mir bitte mal schreiben was für Pinsel du für die Figuren benutzt hast und welche Größe?
LG Timo
Winsor & Newton Series 7 00. Bin mir ziemlich sicher das ich die in dem Video zu den Figuren zeige🤔🤞
The dry wall and the cacti bring this Cretan diorama to a new level, well done.
Thanks man, really happy to hear, appreciate 🙏🍻😊
Check out the Crete diorama on Britmodeller in the Ready for Inspection-Dioramas called Wounded Stragglers which was built before this one.
Really awesome build, great job👍 I love the drop boxes, was looking for more for my. Are these from kits or scratch build? And the walls are build too stone by stone? Looking great.
From kits and, yeah, stone by stone. Scroll down on the page for a photo.

Which foam cutter is that?? Looks like it works well….

@@biberhunter_scale_models thanks!! I was looking at the Hercules.. seems to be even better than the Proxxon…
@@Cptpaul12 sorry I don't know the Hercules device, but when you heard good things about it why not give it a try🤞
Hi, I'm Massimo. Could you recommend me a good brand of electric foam cutter? Obviously available on Amazon...Thanks

The foam cutter is a no brand device from amazon, you should find it if you look for hot wire or foam cutter if it's available in your country. Proton has some brand cutters but I did not use them, so I don't know how good they really are.

Das Beste im Video ist natürlich der "super glue applicator holder"😜
Das stimmt, der ist wirklich oberste Qualität 👌😅😉
I need to buy this styrofoam cutter :)
One of the best investment in scale modeling I ever made. Highly recommended 👍
In your own words… sweet…
