Cheers dude, that means a lot. It was something I really tried to focus on as many of the dioramas I have seen haven't managed to get that really overgrown feeling. Mines not perfect by any means but I was pretty happy with the result and learned loads in the process.
Repositioning the Biker Scout's head was a great move since it looks like he's actually turning the speeder anyway. And as others have said, explosion is amazing! 11/10
All in the details and even though in the movie, the explosion ends that sequence... I added the second speeder and head turn to further tell the story. Glad you liked it and appreciate the support!👍
Cheers dude, all one big experiment and trying out many of the techniques for the first time. Definitely things I would change if I were to build again but learned so much in the process. Thanks for stopping by 👍
By the way awesome work I love watching your.. you prove that you don't need a big expensive stockpile of store-bought products to make a realistic diorama 👍
Probably the best explosion effect I have seen in a diorama, I have seen others use cotton wool, but the fibre optic strands look excellent!! Well done on another excellent build Creative Cuts!
Thank you sir. Yeah I got the idea from TH-cam. Not a new idea by any means but I found myself often getting frustrated because they weren't executed well. Glad you liked it. 👍
Woooooowww!!! That looks amazing! The explosion looks awesome!! And the whole forrest with that thick undergrowth... I admire your patience! Looking forward to future videos.
Nice one John! Appreciate the support. The more i push the boundaries of my patience, the more I realise that i am actually more patient than I thought haha. Next video on the way soon.
Pretty cool man. All that hard work, I would avoid the fake plastic plants. You gave me so many cool ideas. The lights made it look like a real explosion. I'd add maybe a few flying chunks in the smoke. But I really like it
That was fascinating to watch... All the details and mixtures of all sorts were incredible... Well done, I love it... With the lights just made it alive...! Thank you for sharing and keep up the artwork, because I love this... WOW!!
Nice way to build conifers. One thing a lot of people miss is the marks on the trunk below the branches where older branches were broken off. They make noticeable marks. Your way of applying the needles is something I'm going to have to try. Now all I have to do is find a good way to do deciduous trees.
@@creativecuts7803 I made a twisted wire tree about 35 feet tall in 1/35 scale. It looks fine but then most dead trees have most of the branches broken off or just stubs. Very few stay in place after a few years. Now a live one is a whole other story. So far I'm working on a twisted trunk and the major branches, as with the dead one. I'm soldering on smaller twisted branches to fill it out and then will coat it with latex for bulk. Not sure how I'm going on from there. Get the skeleton done first, worry about the leaves later.
@@sabrekai8706 nice dude, I never tried a wire tree. I always end up using actual wood from the forest. I'm always on the look out for some narly piece of wood. I would love to see it when it's done. Best of luck with your build
@@creativecuts7803 First time I went to college, I was in Forestry. Spent 2 years in the bush looking at trees. I've always found the kit trees and most home built ones to be too bulky/clunky. Now is the best time to get out with your camera and start snapping pics of various trees. They are very slim, and have endless branches off of branches. Difficult to duplicate for a scale like appearance. The other thing about kit built ones is that they are tiny. A 50 footer in 35th scale is a tad under 18 inches tall. I don't go to that extreme but my wire tries are in the 8-10 inch range and I'm looking at a dry weed I snagged a couple days ago that will end up at 12 plus.
@@sabrekai8706 haha I completely share your frustration. I don't bother with kit trees because in my opinion, they are not even close. I have seen some great wire examples. If your interested check out the tree I made for my floating island build. It ended up being huge. Leaves could do with a little work but on the whole I'm pretty happy.
Pmsl, loved Harry Potter wand ref, I would have gone with Buffy steak, but each to their own. Crackle paint is odd, the thicker you put it on the better effect you get. Really enjoyed this video. Impressive, most impressive!
I’ve been going through your videos for some tips on making a forest diorama… also Star Wars by chance… I built a STAP speeder out of a Barbie jet and it needs a base. Thanks your videos have really helped!!
Cheers!! I'm glad you found something else in my back catalogue that you enjoyed. I try to keep the content varied ranging from beginner builds to me just going wild.
@@creativecuts7803 it's good to let yourself go with creativity know and again, this is where some of our best work comes from 🙂👍. Btw , the explosion method looks so good 👏💯.
Thank you good sir! Appreciate the kind words. With some careful placement and varying the lengths, the explosion turned out better than expected. All one big experment haha 👍
Thank you for taking the time to watch and getting involved. Really enjoying building stuff at the moment and in doing so it is pushing me into new places so it is a constant source of discovery, as much about myself as it is discovering new techniques etc. Appreciate to support👍
Haha I have several bags of sculptamold in my stock. It is very much my go to for creating land mass. Love it!! Again - thanks for all the tips and thanks for watching 👍
Man, this looks amazing. So much detail in the landscaping! The thumbnail really doesn’t do this build justice. Great work man, hope to see more like it soon!
Hoi hoi. What a fantastic build. It’s absolutely amazing. Every video you do is amazing! I’m glad you got the courage to put them on. Keep them coming :)
I'm a 1/12 scale guy, but your techniques are amazing. I try to incorporate your techniques along with other great crafters to my dios. I'm currently trying to use your vine technique from the jungle ruins video onto my current dio.
Amazing to hear. So glad you found some inspiration and really hope your build works out. Would love to see it. Thanks for the support and more videos on the way. 👍
Such a great tutorial. I wonder (im french so excuse my english) however: i miss the explanation about what you used to do the fine & strait sparks out of the explosion, the ones you glued before putting cotton: is that fine plastic wires?? It looks so but im not sure...
Thank you for your kind words. I am happy you found it interesting. The "wire" is fibre optic strands from a terrible light i bought on amazon for cheap. I did some testing and fishing line has a similar effect although maybe less bright. Hope that helps and happy to answer any other questions.
Haha no I don't work in IT but went to art school and have always worked in creative jobs. I do this in my spare time as a way to balance the stress and pressures of my job. Thanks for taking the time to watch. 👍

Thanks man. Very kind of you to say. I dont have any links as I collected them from my local garden centre and pet shop. Basically anywhere that sells aquarium supplies. Fake topery balls are great too. You get loads of plants in one item. Some ferns I did order online from ebay I think a long time ago. The are sold for weddings. Sorry can't help more but hope that points you in the right direction
coconut fibre . I have been using for years . you can use it in stead of your first layer of foliage where you used the hog bristle brush . Cheap as chips
Nice try on the optic fibers in the explosion, but it doesn't look that great on video, is it better in real life ? Perhaps you could try to color them first, because the idea of having red hot debris flying around made this way is very interesting. I am also looking for a way to do a similar effect. Rest of the diorama is simply mindblowing. Those trees are absolutely epic
@@creativecuts7803 Yh, I agree. The idea itself is genius. I was planning on making painted ones made of cotton around wire or "something" ,but now I think I will work on your method using clear acrylic sticks as base. Thanks a lot for sharing.
Yes. You can preserve almost any plant by soaking it in a mix of warm water and glycerin. This will almost plasticise the plants. They may loose some of their green colour and turn yellowish but you can also dye them back to green or give them a light paint with acrylic paint. Hope that helps a little and as always, I'm happy to help where I can. 👍👍
Didn’t get the name of the builder you mentioned about learning how to make a tree, rewound a lot but still couldn’t make it out. By the way awesome build!!
Thank very much. Really appreciate the kind words. Great that you are getting into the hobby. Pretty new to it all myself, although I have been building 40k terrain on and off for years. This diorama took about 3 weeks but I also work a job in between building so actual build time maybe 10 days. Let me know if you would find a video on "getting into dioramas" useful?
@@creativecuts7803 100% would benefit from a vid like that! Am focusing on ww2 era land vehicles but my goal is to do a big starwars scene eventually! :)
That's great 👍 fantastic way to get into it. And I have added this topic to my list of future videos. Thanks again for taking the time and best of luck with your projects. Would love to see how you get on.
Nothing fancy... just a swing arm with a camera mount. I also recently got a magic arm which works pretty well too. Neither is perfect and I have yet to find a solution which ticks all boxes but as long as it works its all good.
@@creativecuts7803 I have a small desktop tripod for my phone and an arm for my ipad that's hanging from the floor joists above me in my basement. I do kitbash videos but I'm learning about using scripts the hard way.
Hahaha a feeling I know very well. All I can say is do what works for you and make use of the resources you have. In my ongoing quest to optimize my workspace I have had to be pretty inventive and made so many mistakes with bad purchases its almost a joke but eventually I got to a place where I am pretty happy with things but always room for improvement haha
@@creativecuts7803 that's my thinking. Grow into it. Learn from mistakes. I'm encouraged to see your videos. I like your into as well. I've been using blender for mine but they are definite tutorials that I plan on crediting in my next episode. So much of the film is me painting and masking. I'm using nch video editing suite. I'd like to use blender as well for that but it's not as intuitive.
I used blender for my intro and use davinci resolve for all my editing. It blew my mind that both programs are free and for the most part run amazingly. Use whatever works for you and you will find a rhythm to your work flow. I'm finding with each video the process gets a little easier but the first few videos were painfully slow to make haha
Love the channel man, so chilled and awesome builds. I can relate to plucking up the courage to upload, I still dont talk in my vids. 😳 Looking forward to the next one. Subbed. 😎
Hahaha that really made me smile. Take a good run up and dive in head first to the rabbit hole. So much great info on TH-cam and so many different directions you can take it. And if you ever need any pointers always feel free to give me a shout 👍
Haha that would be epic. Maybe something I will think about in the future but got an ever growing list of requests I have to get through first. Appreciate you watching and good luck with your project! 👍
Awesome diarrhea as Chris Griffin says Haha. I like the fiber optics looking like sparks in the explosion, nice little bit of detail that makes it pop out a little more.
Amazing!! Being the Mom of a daughter that is the geekiest of Star Wars Geeks, I know she would love this!!!
Very kind of you to say. I hopes she likes it. If I can share happiness to others then I'm getting something right. Thanks for watching

Yeah..... I have been known to create certain things from time to time ;)

Great video but the music was a little too loud for us older folks who have a hard time hearing anyway.
Thanks for the feedback. I will make sure to keep the volume down in the future. Thanks for stopping by and more videos on the way soon
Thank you!
You are very welcome. Thank you for watching and getting involved 👍
