Alright, you got it! I’ll try and think of some, I’m thinking the first illustration of Toby and the Stout Gentlemen with Toby in the countryside, I’m thinking of filming it outside
Game on! I’ve been planning out something Thomas related for a while but never had a real purpose to get round to it in a hurry with a close deadline. Guess I have a reason to do it now. Best of luck to all, hope you all make fantastic creations!
Hmm, I am thinking of taking part in the Awdry Diorama Challenge... Although I am living on literally on the other side of the world, far away from the U.K. and well.. have my doubts about participating..what should i do????
Alright!! I gotta try this. Now i can participate. I know just the scene to create with of course HO scale models. What a great way to celebrate the 78th anniversary. Good luck to everyone.
does it strictly have to be from an illustration or can it be based on a TVS adaption of a book story, i ask as there is one seen from the TV version of Percy's promise i'd love to do as i have all the rolling stock avilable in N so can even bring it with me thanks to small size, and i have 90% of the things i'd need to model said scene with only needing a few model scenery bits which are cheap enough to acquire, but obviously i need to know if i can use TVS scenes as a basis, i know TVS models should be fine as obviously theres going to be people entering who only have TVS stock but i don't know if that extends to TVS dioramas of book stories EDIT: nevermind, found an illustration that kind of captures a similar vibe, actually there are 2 from predicament i could use, the second means i could use it as a multiple illustration piece
Ok, *”Talyllyn Railway”* I will be interested to join the Diorama-Contest, because I was a train-enthusiast since my childhood of Thomas, to inspire the reality and fantasy stories, I’ll inspire for awdry’s creations. Based of his book and the Television’s Series.
I wonder if entry has to recreate the photos with exact characters or if we could have a twist on it. Like using Australian engines like a Victorian Railways A2 Class as Edward or something to qualify
I do think it might have to be Thomas specific (unless it’s using models of said classes and not the fictional characters themselves) However wouldn’t Edward be more similar to a D3 or D2? The A2’s are much larger in comparison to something like Edward tbh.
@@TheLoneRailrider yeah that’s true. I could use a D3 for Edward but essentially I’m just trying to use what’ve got to try and recreate the illustrations to the best of my ability of what I have. Like making Daisy a DERM or Mavis a W Class shunter instead of a BR 04 etc
An interesting challenge, but I won't be able to do it due to exams June-September. I'm not good in making dioramas as I haven't got skills to make one. :(
Does it have to be specially made for the Challenge? Because, just I just so happened to put together a sort of diorama yesterday! However, I'd be delighted to "rebuild it" if necessary! On another note, what is the music from? I know I've heard the melody before!
I've been curious about the music too... It's at the end of every Talyllyn video. I did some digging and it appears it was written for the 1965 movie "Railway with a Heart of Gold", about the Talyllyn. Neat! I'll have to add it to my watch list if I can find it.
I won't be able to help out. I am working on a production for my college, but I might be able to make one of these if I can find the time. To everyone that will be able to go, have fun!
i guess i need luck on my side. ill try ill be recreating the scene where gordon finds out all his brothers are scrapped (wouldve loved to make the one in stepny the blue bell engine where it show the engines getting scrapped)
Question: Does the diarama HAVE to be of an existing illustration or could it be an interpretation of a scene not illustrated? ie. Duke's flashback experience with Stanley or Gordon arriving in dismay at St. Pancras being photographed from all angles but hating it all?
Hi there, the answer to both questions is no! The idea is this is for those who can't make it to the event, just email in a photograph of your diorama when you've finished it
This is AMAZING!!! But I have two questions. First of all, can anyone participate in this or do they have to have TH-cam or some sort of social media to participate? And second, are we allowed to work with partners on this or does this have to be a one person project? Just wondering, and can't wait to take part in this special event!!! :D
I'm doing Three Railway Engines' book cover. Can't wait to see what everyone else does. Good luck! Edit: Well, I wasn't able to afford all the stuff needed for a TTRE diorama. So I'm making a TTTE one with a twist. Can't wait to see all yours!
You're kidding - I've been cooking up a rws diorama for the past half a month, this is perfect!!!
Man was many steps ahead
Alright, you got it! I’ll try and think of some, I’m thinking the first illustration of Toby and the Stout Gentlemen with Toby in the countryside, I’m thinking of filming it outside
This challenge looks kind of fun im in
Game on!
I’ve been planning out something Thomas related for a while but never had a real purpose to get round to it in a hurry with a close deadline. Guess I have a reason to do it now.
Best of luck to all, hope you all make fantastic creations!
I love this video most of all from this channel🥰🚂
As soon as you mentioned goodie bag I was convinced to go make something 😂
Wow this looks like great fun! What a brilliant idea!!
I had just finished the box of a T-Track module and was trying to figure out what to put on it. This gives me a challenge and ideas. Thank you.
I already have a few pics ready and waiting I send them over this week
that sounds a great idea I love it
I will join even though I'm only a kid "little Engines can do big things" and I can too
It took me a while to realize a whole railway now has a TH-cam channel
Lol
You're on! May the best fan win.
I’m using my custom Percy I finished this month
I’m doing it from Old Iron when edward is chasing James.
This sounds very exciting! I can't wait to take part in this.
This sounds like good fun, I'll definitely participate in this!!
I want to try and edit Ivo Hugh in the TVS
Oh, I’ve really wanted to go to the Audrey extravaganza, but I guess I’ll never be able to go
Great idea! Count me in!
Absolutely making a trackmaster one
Nice. I’m thinking the first illustration from the Three Railway Engines.
Does anybody know where the footage of Awdry featured here comes from? I'd love to see the full program if it still exists publicly anywhere.
Hmm, I am thinking of taking part in the Awdry Diorama Challenge... Although I am living on literally on the other side of the world, far away from the U.K. and well.. have my doubts about participating..what should i do????
When you say digital, does that mean I can use Trainz Rail Simulator and do I have to make the route myself?
IM ACTUALLY HOPEFULLY GOING TO TAKE PART IN THIS
just brilliant🚂
Alright!! I gotta try this. Now i can participate. I know just the scene to create with of course HO scale models. What a great way to celebrate the 78th anniversary. Good luck to everyone.
Wow, this is so fun! Right away an illustration came to my mind. Hopefully i can remake it!
Same
alright, i'm just awaiting on something to arrive, then i'll go for it!
Can you enter more than one entry?
I'll take part just for the fun
I'll do my best hope to make one that's decently good!
Sounds too fun! I’m in!!
What a great Idea! I love it 😍
Man, i wish i could do something but im all the way in California, good luck for the ones who do do it though!

Bro I wished I was there maybe next year.

Okey-dokey looks like fun challenge accepted
Can we do more then one diorama for this
This sounds like a smashing idea
I’m going to do an Ertl super rescue
How do I get tickets
Maybe U should try. I have a few ideas in mind.
I’ll be doing the last illustration from the Flying Kipper
Count me in
GAME ON! 🚂🚃🚃
I got one question :how do I support the talyllyn railway even I'm not in uk
Aight bet
When it comes to Digital entries. Are Trainz-related entries allowed?
do we need to send videos detailing the build process or just photos of the finished product?
Hi your videos are cool 😎
Already finished like 3 weeks ago
I do not have time since I have lots of my own train projects during break.
Sounds fun! Can't wait to enter!
I wonder if entry has to recreate the photos with exact characters or if we could have a twist on it. Like using Australian engines like a Victorian Railways A2 Class as Edward or something to qualify

I personally think that would be an interesting twist! Add some local flair to represent the lasting global reach of Awdry's stories and characters!
Challenge Accepted!
very nice challenge! I'm taking part and I'll try to build something in studio 2.0 😁🤙
Might do the scene where James is in a field after he crashes. Not what I want to do, but I’m on a budget.
Edit: I have submitted where Gordon falls into a ditch.
An interesting challenge, but I won't be able to do it due to exams June-September. I'm not good in making dioramas as I haven't got skills to make one. :(
Challenge accepted!
Glad I was able to submit some art! Thank you for the recommendation!
100 percent joining
But I guess since it’s now closing, I can now have a props used for the television show. Does that sound okay?
Ok I gonna try to make my own
Sounds interesting
Awesome! I'm entering! :D
hey, just wanted to ask if the railway's email address was safe. I'm just being cautious.
Hey there, yes our email is very secure - nothing to worry about ☺
Nice
They should preserve ALL Thomas and friends footages, books, home videos, events, and merchandise
Okie Dokie! I’m Joining!
Does it have to be specially made for the Challenge?
Because, just I just so happened to put together a sort of diorama yesterday!
However, I'd be delighted to "rebuild it" if necessary!
On another note, what is the music from? I know I've heard the melody before!
I've been curious about the music too... It's at the end of every Talyllyn video. I did some digging and it appears it was written for the 1965 movie "Railway with a Heart of Gold", about the Talyllyn. Neat! I'll have to add it to my watch list if I can find it.
"LOOK OUT FOR THE TRAIN!!"
Tough challenge but I’m in
Im basing mine off on Thomas In Trouble
I won't be able to help out. I am working on a production for my college, but I might be able to make one of these if I can find the time. To everyone that will be able to go, have fun!
I'm running to blender
I’ll probably join
Does it have to be 1 or can it be a few
i guess i need luck on my side. ill try
ill be recreating the scene where gordon finds out all his brothers are scrapped (wouldve loved to make the one in stepny the blue bell engine where it show the engines getting scrapped)
I have a question, can we only submit one photo? Or can we send a few more pictures?
I...….am...…..in!
Im in thx for telling
I will do trouble in the shed
Am I allowed to have only one entry or can I have multiple entries?
And I have just bought a body-shell for my Sir Handel custom.. Challenge Accepted
Question: Does the diarama HAVE to be of an existing illustration or could it be an interpretation of a scene not illustrated? ie. Duke's flashback experience with Stanley or Gordon arriving in dismay at St. Pancras being photographed from all angles but hating it all?
I have a question, too. If you cannot decide on just one scene, can you make more, or does it have to be one?
Is there an age requirment? Because I would like to enter something but I'm only 13
As long as your parent or guardian emails in the entry, or course you can!
@@TalyllynRailway1865 THANK YOU SO MUCH
If i am to do this, i would probably do it from the absolute start
Are we able to make these scenes in games?
As long as you make the scenery of the diorama yourself, then you're more than welcome to use games!
Can drawings be in the extravaganza? Because I can draw something really cool for the RWS
Are you allowed to do a physical and a digital one?
A question , if I win the goodie bag will you ship it abroad?
Im doing the Thomas the Tank Engine book cover. I hope I can make it into the top 4. Cant wait to see everyone 's dioramas. Good Luck. 👍 😊❤
I have two questions
1: do you have to be at the event to enter?
2: do you have to make a video?
Hi there, the answer to both questions is no! The idea is this is for those who can't make it to the event, just email in a photograph of your diorama when you've finished it
Chairlord made a diorama and he’s not going so I think that answers your first question
@@TalyllynRailway1865 How big is the goody-bag? It's not small is it? I hope it's like a suprise packet. 😢
Im in
Question: Can we submit more than one entry or do we just have to do one.
Also i'm doing the illustration in the three railway engines where Henry is walled up in the tunnel. (In the story "The sad story of Henry)
@toomuchtoby26 ok
Now I know I won't win but if I'm honest I'd like to take part anyway. I'm thinking definitely something from The Missing Coach...
