Great work as always. You inspire me to do more dioramas with more details. SOOO KOOOOLLLLL . Your finish looks amazing. Big like , full watch and share . Mike .
If you have time , can you watch a short diorama video of mine ? It’s called . How to build a 1/64 school bus diorama almost no cost . I would like to know what you think about the final product. Thanks Mike Espo .
@@diecast_MikeEspo some good ideas there! I love finding household items that work well for modeling. All of us modelers have boxes of old packaging and weird bits and parts. 😆
That was cool to watch. I make lots of miniature crafts and truly love your storytelling creations. I watched this one to almost meditate before i crash out tonight. Its soul soothing
So cool! You are wildly skilled at this. I'd love to see how you would tackle an abandoned convertible with the top up - a shredded ragtop would be a sweet way to feature a models interior.
@@johnsampler520 I used wood glue for the foam to base. Tightbond lll specifically. I glue the truck cab to the foam with “welder” .. a thick sticky craft glue would have worked as well.. I often use Matte Modpodge for much of the details such as weeds and debris laying around. I have so many types of glue and adhesives 😂
That’s a piece of EVA foam (craft foam sheet) attached to a piece of hardboard, like Masonite or equivalent. I use that EVA foam a lot in my builds.. it’s easy to shape and dremel. Most common glues work well with it. It makes a good base for builds like this.. and it’s inexpensive. Thanks!
@@RobertSchildt-vt8yw Thank you! I use so many materials it’d be a long list.. is there a specific step you’re interested in? I’d be happy to explain it. Thanks again.
one wants to go there and resurrect that poor pickup before everything collapses upon it... great work, all those details make it come alive. and that chair, can we call you the miniaturificator? :D oink! (meant in an extistencialist sense, of course)
Yo bro! Great work again. There are a lot of modelers out there, but I like your feeling for the scene. This isn't obvious to everyone, but not many have it. You have to have that in your soul ;)
Thank you! I think that’s why I’m drawn to the heavy weathering that you see in abandoned and dilapidated structures and vehicles. At that point, they start to “merge” with the environment. Nature reclaims.. In a given environment, totally dissimilar objects tend to gain similarities over time. Thanks so much! I appreciate the kind words!
@@VicsModShop Nothing to thank for. I can understand your argument very well, as I personally feel the same way. Many people think my dioramas are too “dirty” and the colors are too desaturated. But that's nature. Keep it up, I'll do it too. No matter what people say ;)
Is there a good resource you can recommend that shows the conversions for 1:64 scale? In other words, how did you determine the length and height of the building, the size of the pieces of siding, roof squares, etc.? Thanks.
Most of it was just eyeballing as accurately as possible using the vehicle as the visual key. I'm sure it's a bit out of scale. But that's a big plus with dilapidated and abandoned subjects.. they can be a little wonky and it still works. There are some scale model calculators online, but I'm not much for math, so I usually wing it. Thanks!!
That’s a Panavise. They make several different versions and accessories. A little pricey but they’ll probably last a lifetime. No regrets getting mine. Thanks so much!
Vic, I really hope you smile and pat yourself on the back when you finish these. This is true art. I love this channel. My favorite channel on TH-cam.
Wow, thanks so much! I really appreciate that!😊

Amazing work
Thank you! 😊😊
Excellent work.. my favourite types of scale modelling.. distressed buildings, weathering etc... 😊
Much appreciated. 😁
Absolutely mind-blowing! I’ve been doing miniatures and dioramas for many years and you are a true artist of “old”
@@laurakotzbauer4573 thanks you.. I appreciate that. Yep, built my first one in the late 70s. 😬☺️
Amazing work! Love the details 😊 You're a source of great inspiration 👍 Thank you for sharing your art!
Thank you! Cheers!😊
So cool! You are wildly skilled at this. I'd love to see how you would tackle an abandoned convertible with the top up - a shredded ragtop would be a sweet way to feature a models interior.
Oh yeah.. that’s a good idea! That’d be a fun one for sure. 👍😊 Thanks much!
I pretty much just stumbled across your channel. Have watched a number of your videos and really love your work. Hope to see a lot more.

Hi everyone! Welcome back. Hope you enjoy this one as much as I enjoyed making it. Please like and subscribe if you do. Thanks!
Very nice work and convincing weathering and aging. The small scale really blows me away. 👍 😊

Weathering is such a fun process 😊😊
Your are a very very good drawer
Thank you!
Talk about a quick response I wasn’t even done with y he video yet I’m only half way through
@@ZachLobdell lol.. I’m sitting here watching TH-cam stuff. 😂
I loved watching this. So easy going with the binaural music. What’s the contraption holding up your diorama? That’s a fantastic idea.
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it. That’s a vise from Panavise. Model 396. I love that thing! It rotates and pivots.. very stable.
Very nices bro I love it great job 👏
Thank you! Glad you like it!
pure art
Thank you! 😊😊
your a very good drawer
@@ZaneOllivierra-po9iw thanks!
@@VicsModShop your welcome
Wow is Super awesome Diorama😮🥰🥰🥰 13:20
😊😊🙏thank you!
This is great! How long on average does each piece take? 🤘
Thanks! Usually around 2-3 days. This one was a little longer though.
What glue do you use to glou foam down on a base and buildings/fencing ect together please?, many thanks👍
@@johnsampler520 I used wood glue for the foam to base. Tightbond lll specifically. I glue the truck cab to the foam with “welder” .. a thick sticky craft glue would have worked as well..

Прекрасное место как бы я хотел там побывать....
Thank you!
Where do you get most of your cars?
Ebay or locally like Walmart etc.
Just beautiful!!!
What is the name of that press you use to hold the pieces? It looks very useful!
That’s a Panavise. They make several different versions and accessories. A little pricey but they’ll probably last a lifetime. No regrets getting mine. Thanks so much!
hey man!!! how are you? it"s amazing work
Doing good my friend! Always nice to hear from you! Thank you.
this is so inspiring its not even funny...
😊😁I’m happy to hear that!
