- My friends, miniature buildings are a very exciting part of any diorama. They offer us many exciting and different textures, and a whole new bunch of painting and weathering techniques! But their biggest downside is their size, and soon enough we can start running out of space. So why not take the best out of this concept and put it in a picture frame?

Remeber kids: All you need is +30 years old black ink! - Dear Martin, it amazes me what you can do new to the most common things. Very creative, very new and also kind of quick (and dirty from the ink). I started following you for your modeling skills - no so much because you do armor. Today i congratulate myself being so smart to stick with you. Im even looking forward for the next tank!
I'm a bricklayer in canada and the way that you varied the brick color in sections is perfect. When bricks are placed on the scaffold they come on pallets so that sections of wall will get that pallet with a few leftovers raised up to the next section. One might get a few pallets from the same batch number so they'll be really close in color but if not from the same batch number the colors will be slightly off just as you've shown. We'll done 👏👌👏
Happy Christmas uncle night shift!!!
I am absolutely speechless. Your talent for creating replicas of originals goes beyond the normal level of talent. Unbelievably pretty.
SO SICK!!!!! This should be a series of future builds!!!!
yes! Love this!
Sounds like a plan ;)
It is _so_ nice to see every 2nd rows of bricks laid short side out! This is the standard for brick constructions actually made from bricks, and not just faced with bricks. A proper brick wall is two bricks thick. There are several ways to ensure stability for suck a wall, the every 2nd row across is called "English bond", but there are many other types, like Garden bond (every 4th row across), Flemish bond, Monk bond etc.

That was a master class in XPS modeling. The Tamiya putty as sealer could be a game changer for many people, and that styrene "plywood" sheet is also brilliant. In fact the whole vid was stuffed with fantastic techniques. Bravo, sir.
For me it is a miracle when people can recreate what they see. I can not even draw a straight line. Great art.
As a professional artist, let me reassure you that no one can draw a straight line. The human species has invented all sorts of tools to overcome our shortcomings, such as a straight edge (or holding shift if drawing on the computer.)
I can't walk a straight line
Ha Ha! Me too. I also have the added handicap of being colourblind.
I am so obsessed with your architecture builds. There needs to be a word for architecture miniatures - its not just dollhouses! Please do more, I love seeing your works so much
Inspirational stuff, Night Shift. I've found a good splosh of homemade acrylic thinner, half again of cheap liquid PVA glue and a few teaspoonfuls of cheap finishing plaster filler to consistency of thickish paint does wonders. Dry with a heat gun if you're impatient and recoat if you want. It leaves a hard 'plaster' like (lol) surface which is just begging to be painted. I mix up enough for a small plastic shot glass which I reckon is about 10 pence a shot rather than £6.00 a tube of commercial stuff. Try it with other glues too! Best of luck.
Results are spectacular as expected with your always excellent projects. Just wanted to share that AK Interactive has precut styrofoam and how-to books for this subject. They even sell facade kits for those interested in trying these projects.
I love your tanks but your scratch buildings are something else. Great one as always. Please do more 😊❤
Let’s goo! This looks awesome, always love the unexpected uploads 👌
Goo?
@@Astronopolisgo but longer for emphasis
Oh my days.. I can’t do better in the future, excuse me ?? How ?? This is like normal for you totally insanely beautiful.
It’s like, I want to watch what you create, yet feel so insecure as I know I will never have that much talent to even warrant trying it.
Put this video off for so long, just watched it and I’m like how, just how..
You are an amazing talent sir.. much respect
If I hadn't of seen you make this. I would have said I was looking at a picture of a real building. Great job.
Bonjour super video que je découvre , vraiment très réaliste , avec juste de la peinture et de la patine du plus belle effet . bravo .
A GREAT idea, particularly for those who are short of space for a growing collection of dioramas...
I’ve been watching you for a long time now and always thought your building facades could be stand alone pieces.
Amazing, well done!!👍
Love it! Even the german sign missing the letter E
I have been very impressed by the work of Chuck Doan, his buildings and diorama's are amazing.
He's the master of photo-realistic modelling!
Very very impressive, holly sh*t. The level of details and realism, I'm speechless. After seeing your video I just had to subscribe to your chanel. I need to see more of you 🫨
Man, I keep getting visions of one of these looking like the view through a scope.
then setting up the scene like a WWII Where's Wally/Waldo... or a Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band album cover style with warriors from all eras.
Getting better by the day brother!!!!
Love the content, details in your dioramas are just amazing.
Hey Martin, hope you are doing well "Ma FRIEND"
hope to see your next project, love all your videos Kiddo!...
Your Friend Tom from Ottawa Ontario Canada E'h!...🇨🇦
That putty is a massive game changer!!!. OMG, switching to foam!!!!!
Это очень круто! Я в восторге от работы! Хочется, конечно, больше подобных работ видеть 👏👍
Beautiful work. Really nothing more I can say. It must be nice to be you.
Merry Christmas
Amazing skills to get it nailed with so many new techniques tested! And nice to see some more non military stuff recently 👌
Night shift, you said thank you for watching. Thank you, thank you, thank you for producing such great content and fantastic and in-depth works of art. So a really big thank you to you 👍
Absolutely fantastic Martin - you’re an absolute inspiration to the entire modelling community.
This guy made me dream about black ink, like really yes
Absolutely fantastic modelling. But I wish people would do this occasionally in 00. Gauge.
Yessss! A night shift upload on time for Christmas! Honestly best gift
Love it, love it, love it ❤❤❤
It’s always a good day to find an upload from Uncle
Thank you, Martin, for your generosity and kindness. You are a wonderful teacher.
Wesolych Swiat from GM Factory Zero in Hamtramck, Michigan. Your Lifetime Achievement Award for scale modeling is available at Great Lakes Train and Toy in Sterling Heights or either Polish Century Club in Warren or Troy.
Very nice model, that technique can also carry down to HO scale, awesome!!!
I like this type of model, I've saw a few sifi versions of picture frame models and they look cool.
Brilliant! Thank you so much for sharing and making, and for your concise explainations 🙂
Wow, it's awesome
I had the thought of putting the head of an infantry soldier peeking through the glass. It would be dead simple and the visual interest of a face behind the old glass could create a story of a battlefield ambush or tense hiding from a sniper.
Thanks for the inspiration and putting a spotlight on another book for resource material. You’re a legend.
wish I had the time for dios...last one of water mill one of best ive ever seen...awesome martin
I love it please make more.
Absolutely " STUNNING " Finished Work Sir 🏆🏆🏆🏆. Have a Blessed Merry Christmas 🎄🙏🤗 Gary.
The rusty metal gate is incredible! The whole thing looks like a photograph!
Cool industrial experiment. 😊🎉❤
Hi Martin :)
Search for deep frame 3D - they are 3cm deep with glass at front
That was awesome
You need to get some echoing fluid that is used in electronics. You can use it to rust up roof panels and corners of windows ( missing deteriorated parts) it’s a nice effect. I’ve only tried it with copper
Great work, it’s kind of a meaningless comment because all your videos are terrific, but this is one of the most thought provoking.
Impressive and a massive thanks for the inspiration! i will give this method a good try but with twist.. drawing the bricks by hand and then use a cheap laser engraver to engrave the foam and then poke them around for variations 🙂
Amazing work ! But for us this is just a glance of what professional modellers like you do the job.
Very informative... but there is a huge difference between words and deeds....I think..
Anyway thank you for your helpful content.
You continue to inspire me with your amazing creativity and laid back approach to modelling, thank you.
I asked Santa for Uncle Night Shift to upload before Christmas and he did! Truly a Christmas miracle!
Merry Christmas Uncle Nightshift 😊
simply wonderful!!!!
Been a subscriber for a while; this has to be my FAVORITE of yours! Amazing work!!👏
I'm really impressed. Masterpiece!
That's pretty great!😁
Happy holidays!
A amazing job and looks amazing and a great work .
You're definitely the Michelangelo of weathering my friend! 👍🏻👌🏼👏🏻
Mind bendingly awesome 😲
Beautiful, great work!
Another amazing video!!!!! Merry Christmas!!! Can’t wait to see what 2024 will bring
Wow, amazing
I love it! I've seen some people who specialise in doing this kind of model. I like photos of walls and old signs, too.... which might be a bit odd, now I think about it. I found a site a few years ago where someone had collected loads of images of 'ghost-signs', old advertising murals on the sides or facades of buildings, some so faded and worn as to be almost unintelligible. I spent hours there and copied lots of the images, but the reason I mention it was that some of them were the work of a French artist/maker who had done flat framed facades of various buildings with ghost-signs. Beautiful work, I just wish I could remember his name! You should have a go at doing one, I think you're style and sensibilities would be perfectly suited to the faded majesty of ghostly signage.
DING! You've gained another level in modelling dioramas!
Wooooow! Otro nivel!! 👌👌👌👌 alto Realismo!!!
That looks so incredible!
Amazing job!
Love your videos man only TH-camr I will drop everything and watch as soon as I see the video
An early christmas gift!
Book nook next!! ❤
Absolutely awesome!
You're a Genius!
No doubt about it!
I wish you a merry Christmas and a very good new year!
👍🏼❤️🎄☃️💫🎁❄️🕯️🎇🎆
Great job brother
Real nice Martin and Merry Christmas!
30 years ago i was really into 1/35 Tamiya I bought several military soldier packs and after i got home I cutt them apart so i could pose them the way i likes them
30 later i still have those and some of my best in a display this brought by so many good memories Thanks!! You got a new subsciber!
Amazing work! Thanks for sharing!!!!
Merry Christmas Uncle!
Another great video!!!
Hope 2024 will be a great year for you and your family!!!
Amazing!!!
Fantastic!!! For more Money this could be sold as Art! And if you decide to go down that road, find some picturesque old Farm Building. Nostalgia Sells! I say this because your skills are more than Modelling, they are Art! And I do believe your other Viewers will agree with me...
And for sealing that Foam... Acrylic Medium, Gloss or Matt. It's been foolproof for me! Just make sure it coats every surface!
Well Done Si,A Very nice solid and Neath Job..Happy Christmas to You,Jemma and all the Family.
Hey merry new year and good Christmas, no wait...
Gorgeous
Superbe on s’y croirait ❤❤quel talent mon ami😀
Aaaabsolutely stunning, ma frieeend 👍😉
beautiful... like those bricks
I was getting a coffee at a drive-thru the other day and observed the brickwork. I noticed where the new guy obviously got involved... you could tell where he finally got yelled at and shown how to do it properly. Much better but not perfect. Then a few rows up they were immaculate again. Either fired, re-tasked, or next shift took over I guess.
Jednoducho - super! Palec dohora :)
One of the best modelling channels. I admire your creativity and your patience and skill in creating the dioramas. The result is always 100% perfect. Thank you very much for the many suggestions.
That's a nice Andreas Rousounelis feature 😅. Nice tribute.
Круто как живая.Спасибо за видео.
Professional as always 👍
Just WOW!!!!!!!!!!!
Beautiful!!!!!!!!
Honestly, to me, best thing you've ever done.
