Templates and 3D printer files that were used in the creation of this model are available from the download section of my website: www.bouldercreekrailroad.com/...
If you want to build dioramas and model scenery this is where to start, Scene-A-Rama have a range of starter kits that will get you started in building awesome dioramas that are perfect for school projects or even as a test bed for trying new techniques that can later be applied to a large model railroad.
To create the dam wall shown in the video a Scene-A-Rama Water Diorama kit was use, however, it was supplemented with a range of products from Woodland Scenics to create the final project. Below are a list of products and the associated links on where to find them:
Some of the products I used in the video were sent to me for the purpose of making this sponsored video but if you’ve been a follower of my channel you’ll notice I have purchased quite a lot of these products already, which is why I have no problems recommending them, they are great products and as you can see in my library of videos the results speak for themselves.

This video is just 30 minutes of luke swearing at a wall for some reason
"The damn wall."
Wall abuse is not a joke, Jim. Millions of bricks suffer every year!
I came here for that! Wasn't disappointed!
9:00
"the damn surface"
"We are going to start with the damn wall!"
Ok calm down dude 😜
By putting the accent on the word "wall," he did tend to make "dam" sound more like an adjective: "damn."
This had me laughing right from the jump
@@minutemark that’s the joke, but thanks for elaborating it.
Now this is sponsorship done right. You take the product that helps you, and explain why it's worthy of sponsorship through use and/or skill, and show the viewer how deep you can go with the product with your OWN expertise. I really like your videos dude, they really help me get my mind off of things.
+ using homemade things for the additional products
Hey.....I couldnt agree more. I've been following Luke for.yrs and 95% of it is his genuine nature.and tone of voice.....I also agree on the sponsorship comments!
That was the best water sight teal i have ever seen
The dude painstakingly painted the corridors which nobody will be able to see well enough to notice. Freaking amazing.
That's called attention to detail and is the difference between a good model and an amazing model. Luke's models are always amazing.
this is called passion for detail! many aircraft modelers paint details that will then be completely covered: passion leads to that too: the pleasure of doing it for yourself!
Yes!! I was so impressed!
Luke is hands down the best scenic modeler online. His work is simply amazing and with his photography skills you can easily be fooled into thinking his dioramas are real.
Also check out Boomer Dioramas.
I am shocked every time I watch one of these. They are so creative and detailed. I actually tried making my own one based on one of your videos which was fun.
oh awesome! I'm glad I was able to inspire you to have a go and it's even better that you enjoyed doing it. That's what it's all about 😃
He amazes me! No one does it better.
I don't dare try. I know i would just make a huge mess.
@@gardenman3 My first model ship was terrible, but a couple years later and learning a few little tricks, I just finished my 4th ship and it came out great. Too bad it was a gift for someone because I wanted to keep it. It takes practice but once you are good at it, the more you'll want to do and better it will turn out.
Same. I really want to try but I know my hands aren't that steady. 😂
Your work truly goes above and beyond every single time! We are extremely happy to officially partner with you. It's crazy how much can be done between our diorama kits and Woodland Scenics products. Even when presented with a challenge (such as mixing products to create a modelling paste), you are able to be innovative and rise above. Thank you for always being such an inspiration :)
That's a dam nice model, Luke.
Love this one. You’re a huge inspiration, Luke!
I love seeing other awesome creators comment on videos I'm watching.
69 likes 😈😂
the Bob Ross of model scenery making right here has done it again with this dam
Oh man! That's what I call a 'glow up'! Great work as always.
cheers Merrick, this was a fun model to build. As you probably know the water dioramas tend to be a lot more interesting to look at 😎
Don't lie, Luke, we know those "muscles" are made from Plaster of Paris.
Perfect timing for a Saturday evening. Time to sit back, chill and watch your amazing work for inspiration. Thank you for the time you put into all of these amazing dioramas.
Thanks Rob, I'm glad you are enjoying the videos and I hope you enjoy watching this one as well 😃
I was going to say the same thing, however it's Saturday morning for me!
My inner 12-year-old: giggles every time "dam base", "dam wall", etc." is mentioned.
I keep on giggling too lol, it's so dam good xp
Same here!
Same here 😂👍 P.S. I’m 44 🤣😄
Is this a dam joke Jackson?
Dam this was a great video!
I legit wanna see a medieval village or ruins or something like that. It would be amazing to watch you building different scenic diorama that fit together as a scene.
The title alone is enough to know: This is gonna be awesome!!!!
BTW: The thumbnail made me think of a Stargate first :>
ha ha thanks mate 😊 I hope it doesn't disappoint 😎
@@BoulderCreekRailroad Oh please, that never happened before!
Same
@@BoulderCreekRailroad would be pretty awesome to see you recreate the Stargate gateroom.
@@whidzee OH, MAN, HE LIKED YOUR COMMENT!!!
I'm gonna go ahead and assume that means there's hope of Luke actually building a Stargate diorama. 😃
Luke, have you ever won any awards for your diorama’s ?
You are Rocky of Modeling… You don’t ‘ve any competition… Best work years after years!!! ✌️🦋💐🇨🇦
It's difficult to distinguish the real from the model. Thanks for teaching us how to do it right, Artist. Cheers from Spain.
thanks so much 😊 I'm glad you are picking up some techniques from the videos.
I think that woodland scenics should pay You for promoting their products in such an excellent way.
If not your videos i wouldn't even know about them.
As always great and inspiring video.
Cheers from Poland
That access tunnel with lights is the best part. I'm going straight to the scene-a-rama website to order a kit. I love this tiny scale.
I couldn't help thinking of Chevy Chase in National Lampoons Vegas Vacation during this one. A lot of dam jokes here. lol Looks fantastic Luke.
I think this is the best white water i have seen from a model video. I think it captures the churn and foam better than fibre fill of the snow effect alone. Really cool to see!
Finally a new video! Volume 27 and you still make something unique, not just a road and some trees and bushes, you always come up with something new and interesting! Keep it up! And I can't let this comment go without mensioning that damn wall!
Perfect video for the saturday night! Awesome as always Luke!
For trimming the edges of the ‘water’ have you considered a deburring tool designed for metal? I think it would give you less of a chamfer and also be less likely to dig in and take a big chunk out. Might not work but it might be worth a try.
Might also try passing a torch flame over the dulled chamfers to get them to match the smooth surfaces. Not sure if it works for resin like this, but it does for plastics, so worth a try
Another dam phenomenal project.
Absolutely love your work, Sir!
I really enjoy your format. There's no ego involved in your presentation whatsoever and I appreciate that a lot. And the talent that you have is incredible and I applaud you for that. Normally with my condition I have a hard time staying focused on a lot of videos but yours keeps me interested. Congratulations on your excellent talent.
Nice waking up to a diorama being built by ya, cheers.
Oh man since I last watched you, your techniques have changed! Baking soda? DIY modelling paste? Look at you go!! Loved this so much!
Thanks so much 😊
Im always amazed to see how creative people can be when creating these models, love the work mate
That damn wall! Thats what I'd hear every time.
Its my birthday today and seeing the notification for a new video has been the highlight of the day :)
Another hit out of the park!!!
i know its called a dam
but i cant help but chuckle everytime he says: stick on the dam wall
or similar things
Appreciate your work
Love from Pakistan 🇵🇰
Thank you Luke for your video. What a great idea for making the water plume. Thank you for all your hints and tips. May you and your family be blessed.
What a great artist you are !
Simply blown away with this video. Amazing what you accomplished. I have to admit though, one of the first things I thought of was “ohhh it needs a Lancaster Bomber flying over the parapet. “ great work
I love seeing the transformation from the static grass. 💚💚
Yay...!! A new clip from Luke..!!
The exiting water from the pipes is awesome. Looks pretty realistic for sure.
No doubt about you Luke. You’ve done it again. Your super clear communication is greatly appreciated.
Dam … ok my enjoyment of the dam wall I couldn’t stop smirking each time.
Amazing champion, I tried to build like you do and just can't get those kinds of details truly a bloke of great skill.
Thank you so much 😀 it's just practice, my first projects looked nothing like the newer models I've been building.
@@BoulderCreekRailroad mate it is an absolute joy to watch and learn. Keep up the great work.
A rainforest scene would be amazing! Would love to see
Man you make this look way too easy. Great work. I bought some stuff the other day to give this a try and have no idea what I'm doing or where to start. Lmao..but at least I bought it haha.
lol, you gotta start somewhere 😃 It's mostly just practice, you'll quickly figure out what works and what doesn't. Plus as long as you're happy with it that's all that matters.
@@BoulderCreekRailroad hey thanks buddy. I've watched you for the last year or 2 and I really enjoy what you do. I would like to see what I can do. All the woodland scenics are online I'm guessing because I couldn't find them at my local craft stores.. Michael's and Hobby Lobby
@@BoulderCreekRailroad I also wanted to say that my favorite ones of yours were the gold mine, that tall 12 story building with all the different rooms and that building that you replicated not that long ago. It's so cool, and hopefully one day I can get that good.. I really like your show, thanks buddy

Be sure to check out the sponsor of this video Scene-A-Rama, they are a great place to start if you are looking for a way to get started in diorama building, even if you’re a seasoned professional these kits are a great way to hone your skills.

OwO
For a second from the thumbnail, I thought you had built a Stargate.
@@lasarith2 oooo that's a cool idea! ☝
@@BoulderCreekRailroad
Could you build a building/feature from a map from the video game Battlefield 4? I.e. Rogue Transmission?
Watersight teal is a must for this diorama!
Dam fine diorama video, Luke Towan!
That’s a dam good model.
The water flowing out of the pipes looks incredible. I never would have guessed how it was done!
Hello friend.. sending support, hope to see you soon.. thanks and GOD BLESS
wow! the best waterfall i have ever seen
Luke!!! I needed this video this week. It's been super tough in lockdown in Melbourne lately as my girls and I usually take a trip out of the city each and every weekend...we often visit features like this. Being transported into a rural scene like this, as well as watching your expertise was so satisfying. Thank you for all of your hard work. Reading the comments I know you've inspired many to create their own pieces. As much as I wish I had time to practice and hone this craft my thing is hitting the trails and getting outdoors...but, I can always live out my exacting artistic dream through your fascinating vids. You're a LEGEND!!
The wait times are worth the video release. I would truly enjoy an hour video.
Another awesome diorama.
Cheers from India
I really enjoy that the products are described and used creatively, your sponsors could not have better representation.
That said, I'd really love to see you make "something out of nothing", as it were. Paper, packaging foam, debris from the garden, maybe even a little light system from a defunct toy car.. it would be cool to watch, and very instructive :)
yeah... this is really ultra realistic
The creativity, detail, and originality is just... PHENOMENAL!!
Dude... This is insane...
Thanks mate 😉
I really like that base. I've often thought that the textured look of matt-black-painted plywood bases let a lot of models down, not just on your channel.
First! (Well no, turns out other comments didn't load ☹️ )
Holy cow this model looks so cool!
cheers mate, glad you like it 😊
Back with a bang!
thanks again, it was a bit of a wait between videos. Glad you enjoy the way this one turned out 😃
As always, an amazing build, Luke. Your filming and production is flawless, as well.
Also somebody needs to comment on the fact that you're getting fit - you can see just from the forearm shots! Well done mate, evidently excelling at many walks of life!
Keep up the good work you legend.
The fluff transforming into water pipe effects was really mind-blowing. When you were adding the fluffy tufts to the wire I was very skeptical
Someone should start clipping and compiling Luke inserting flash drives. 🤣
ha ha... I'm going to confess... I played that in reverse so it looks like I got it in one go 😎
@@BoulderCreekRailroad I've thought of that too but I don't want to assume that you did it in reverse. 🤣
@@BoulderCreekRailroad I had to laugh at the one. Yet more amazing skill and detail.
Proving once again that quality is worth the wait. Always love a Luke Towan notification... :)
Whoo hoo Luke is back in town. His creations are truly stunning!! Im gonna save this for later to really enjoy it.
Your work is truly wonderful!
Thanks for the post!!!
Zoomed in, there is no way I wouldn't think this is still photography of a life-size dam. You are clearly head of the pack in your technique and coloring. You leave _no stone_ - unturned.
This is my favorite youtube channel
Every new post of yours just makes me happy. Thank you, and I'm drinking to your health.
I love how amazing these look. And watching it come to life is always so relaxing!
I am glad to see you are well, love every one of these builds.
Take care, and all the best.
I've seen every video you've made and I've loved them for years. That being said, this may be my most favourite so far. What a very cool idea you had, and wonderful execution
Again another cracking step by step. What more can I say! Also good to see some fresh ideas with the easy homemade sculptamold.
Another inspirational video. Thank you! I love your rushing water technique. Most I have seen, the cotton sticks out like a sore thumb, in yours, it looks amazing! Keep up the fantastic work!
Every time you showed the completed diorama, it looked so real. Way to go. Your vids are so worth waiting for. Cheers Mate.
Thanks for sharing this, Luke, I especially appreciate the tip about using baking soda as an accelerant and filler for super glue!
Another work of art by our master builder. Thanks Luke.
Brother this is an amazing build totally love it I hang everyday awaiting more builds from you Luke and let me tell you the anticipation of the wait is always worth it buddy the first time I seen your work in person while working at ozrail and you shared a lot of helpful information to me I was hooked keep up the great work brother
@Luke Towan Once again you have blown my mind🤯 with your fantastic craftsmanship, and the amazing details that you put into these, is amazing!!! What about you do for your next project a City scape In the night with some lighting in the buildings? I think that would be pretty cool!!
such an amazing channel. the skill and time that goes into these is unreal. makes it look easy.
Luke it is Always a pleasure watching you do your builds thank you for your time
Amazing work, congratulations.
Amazing build of a dam. 🙂
As always Luke, your modelling is so creative and so well done. Watching your videos inspires me to try new things. Thanks.. We here in NZ feel for our Aussie cousins while you battle covid and lockdowns. Keep safe, be kind
Good work. But i admire most those who really craft their creations rather than relying more on products and 3D printing
Amazing work! It is amazing to see how you created the realistic dam. It's a lot of work and not sure I have the patience to create the dam. I've learned a lot just be watching your video. I look forward to seeing more of your work. Thank you for sharing.
This looks amazing .It does look very realistic too.I like how you explained everything and showed every part of the build.Just Amazing
Awesome build. I’ve watched a few different creators’ channels but this is by far the best one to watch. Thank you for sharing your creations with us.
Dam! These videos are like Bob Ross on steroids!! Keep them coming Luke. Awesome.
Thank you Luke to sharing these artworks! I always enjoy to watch your videos! 😎👍
And I just made an audible, "OOOH!" when I saw there was a new Luke Towan video!
Dam, that's a beautiful dam!
Your comment makes me so dam happy 😄
@@BoulderCreekRailroad :D
Nice to see you upload
He’s back, baby!
Beautiful
