Thanks again for another great video and diorama. I completed my first diorama after watching you 2 years ago and it’s been all about dioramas ever since. Thank you Andy!
Great little tutorial (as always), turned out excellent, Andy 👍 Should inspire just about anybody to tackle a diorama! For those of you thinking of doing this, lay some clear cling wrap (from your kitchen) over the Sculptamold and then press in the track marks - this will stop any of the product from getting caught in the tracks.
I just started diorama base building, and this is very helpful! Although it might be awhile before I get all those the stuff mentioned, I have the static grass but not the expensive static creator, plus those pigments.
*sylvain falquet* The static grass applicator is a great tool (a bit expensive) and there are videos on TH-cam to make your own. That said, for years, I just applied the static grass by hand - just pinch it between your fingers and drop it in place then lightly blow across it to help the 'blades' sit upright. Also, after it dries, you can tease up the grass with a paint brush.
Hi Andy, that looks fantastic, and when you have the Panzer III finishec and on the base it will look even better, best regards to you and your famil and all, your USA customers from Australia.
Great job on the diorama base. The outside pictures are outstanding with the short focal plane so the back ground blurs. Have you ever made a "book end" set of dioramas? Maybe an tank like this one on one end and an antitank gun and crew on the other end?
i might give something like that a try ... you've made it look pretty easy but since i tend to build 1/72 armour/armor kits i would get several vehicles on a diorama that size
Great video Andy. Very nice tutorial for if you want to begin with building this. But what music did you used as background music during the time lapses, I like the music. Besides that, this video makes me want to build a diorama too.
love all your videos they are very helpful, and a giant thank you for them all. question though, got most my vehicles and figures together, and now i am ready to start making a 8'x4' terrain, now the question after the scuptamold harden can you still just blend in a new section and feather it in for a seamless transition? will it stick to the old hard section, or would one be better off running in small screws so the screw head would form a anchor to secure it, or some other fixer between the two section? thank you much.
Hi, Andy great video and diorama base! I was wondering, which hardware store did you buy the frame from, and how much did it cost? I've been using the wooden plaques from the craft stores but I like the look of the frame better. Thanks in advance.
MR. Lemonzz the fit on the starter kits are pretty good and the paintjobs are pretty basic just a tip thin the paints a bit with water first, what happened with the p51 kit was the oaint too heavy?
HINT: if you ever had FRUIL tracks, make yourself a wheel on a stick, or if you want to keep it simple us your 3 or 4 links and push them into the ground. Yes you need to have your model on hand to know how far apart you have to place the tracks but you do not run into the issue with having a messed up final model due to the skulptamold
Andy, ever consider selling a complete kit of materials and instructions for diorama like this?
I’m so happy! I love your dioramas, I hope you can find the time to keep making more!
Thanks again for another great video and diorama. I completed my first diorama after watching you 2 years ago and it’s been all about dioramas ever since. Thank
you Andy!
Amazing. You make it look so simple, it’s not but you make it look that way. It gives us normal modelers hope! Keep ‘em coming.
Enjoyed. Natural light really brings out the details. Great tutorial.
Great video Andy.
Good to see you back in action.
Always fun.
Cool base dio Andy !!
Looks cool. You have done great builds. I learn a great deal. Just a few words of atta boy well done sir. Enjoy your videos. Thank you. Over and Out.
Outdoor Photos r Awesome, This WAS a Quick Easy Dio Andy. Thanks Again For Sharing n God Bless All.

Great Job!!! now, as a builders tip, as you say, i think it would look better with a few rocks or even roots exposed, not a must, love your vids!!!

That's absolutely terrific, and in the sunlight it looks utterly real. I've never been worth a damn at dioramas but I may revisit the subject.
Hi Andy, that looks fantastic, and when you have the Panzer III finishec and on the base it will look even better, best regards to you and your famil and all, your USA customers from Australia.
Well done Andy, that video got my creative juices flowing again!!!
Outside, the realism is really fantastic! Brilliant job!
You do a great job of making something often daunting to some modelers look quite doable.
Thanks Andy looks really good. Maybe display the Grass and bushes for those who don't know about that stuff. So... I'm ready for a Stug build .
I would love to do this level of craftsmanship/artistry, but I think I need to put another room on the house to do what I want to do with what I have!
Awesome result Andy and very effective. Loved the outside shots by the way.

Reminds me of when I was working on my model railroad stuff.
Great video Andy that outside shot makes it look real keep up the good work and stay safe 👍👍
Love the diorama builds
Very informative video Andy and enjoyable nice work Steve 🇬🇧
That looks very realistic with the natural sunlight

Looks good Andy!! 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍 I need to do a few of those for my builds.
Very nice job and thanks for your skills Andy😁😁
You have to love an easy quick base!!
could you please provide a list of the different materials and tools used to create this scene. Thanks for the great videos and keep up the hard work.
As always another great video. Thanks Andy.

This may be a dumb question, but could drywall mud be used in place of that molding compound?
Love it. Thanks for the new music.
Looks great Andy. As always
Hi, Andy great video and diorama base!
I was wondering, which hardware store did you buy the frame from, and how much did it cost? I've been using the wooden plaques from the craft stores but I like the look of the frame better. Thanks in advance.
Very intertaning. What are your methods on doing a ocean diorama for ships?
Great tips Andy...thanks!
When are you going to finish your panther factory diorama you were doing
Perfect work 👌
Model and base looks amazing. Could you recommend and beginner German tank kits?
Takom and Tamiya kits are usually pretty good for beginners
Oliver Viehland all the italeri kits ive build dont include numbers on the sprues which is very annoying
Any tamiya tank model i reccomend the tiger or jagpanther
@@AndysHobbyHeadquarters My only worry is not having an air brush
Very nice , I like to make these small ones
What did he use as grass can I have the names of everything that was used? Just the powders and the wash stuff
Top Tip- paint the sides of the base & mask them before adding your scenery.
Just went to the shop today I got the sturmtiger
Like your tow do a diorama with the stug on it
amazing work! from the preview picture I thought it was a real grass=)
Nice dio base Andy. Simple and easy to make. How's the RC Wrecker coming since it's been almost a month since we saw a vid on that?
loved the video Andy! just one question what size grass did you use ?
Great video
Brilliant !
what type of wood is the base of the diorama. thx.
Will you ever finish your railroad diorama, I'd love to see it.
doublenickelbob he sells his stuff, so I think that was one of the ones he sold.
Thanks for the vid!
Can you recommend any easy paint jobs kits? I tried to do a p51 recently but totally failed!
MR. Lemonzz hurricane or a spitfire the starter sets from airfix are great
Epicforger 12345 Thanks! What is the fit/paint job like?
MR. Lemonzz the fit on the starter kits are pretty good and the paintjobs are pretty basic just a tip thin the paints a bit with water first, what happened with the p51 kit was the oaint too heavy?
Epicforger 12345 I had painted it and was letting it dry. One of my cats found it. Was suddenly chrome paint in the shape of paws on the ground
Also I aplyed one of the decals before paint was dry
Good tips--thanks!
Do you have material links?
Cannot resist...
(In a French accent)
'You said Berm...'
'Yes, I know that..!'
Build a Land Rover defender please
thats rly rad.
Great work.I don't have a static grass applicator so I blow up a ballon,rub on my shirt and it works pretty good
YAY a new vid!
Wiggle it, just a little bit, song was in my head when you tracked it
HINT: if you ever had FRUIL tracks, make yourself a wheel on a stick, or if you want to keep it simple us your 3 or 4 links and push them into the ground.

bravo i like
Buy the way I'm 60 but can you adopt me.🤣🤣🤣
I think youd better fade out the music when it ends or smth cuz it feels to abrupt
💯👌
I don't have any pink foam so I guess I'm going with styrofoam
A little bit more weathering on that Panzer and it would have been GOLD
But nice diorama
First lol just kidding
