Friends! I just wanted to note that I did put a protective top coat on the underside of the wood to protect it from moisture and added silicone to the inside sewer hole where the steam comes out to protect it. Those parts were fine but the steam did end up effecting the street level more than I anticipated so...i won't be using that feature moving forward to avoid ruining the scene but it sure did look cool! 😂🤷♀️
I think I would definitely do something like this and I think I would do maybe outlander inspired or Tolkien inspired scenes.
Amazing. And no, I wouldn't try that, I don't have the patience anymore 😄🤯 I did dioramas for my kids when they were little, but with less detail; no lites back then. Great job! 👍🏽
Awesome 🤩👏🏼
Just thinking if dishwasher safe mod podge would work on the scene itself to make it water proof!? 🤔
In combination with spray on topcoat even? For the parts that can’t be mod podged!? 🤷🏻♀️
Maybe a little fan on the top part as well to take the moisture out 😅
Just sharing some thoughts but You’re the expert 🙈
Loved this! Thank you 🤩
👍😁😁😁
I was wondering about that! It’s such a cool feature, that’s too bad it can’t be used more, shucks!
Danie my father would fall in love with you. His job was as a "Model Maker" for the Hungarian Goverment. He made mini factories, bridges, ships and more and they were moving working order. He use to take them around the world for Expo's to show how would it look like eg. the factory if we build it for countries they need them. I use to help him with little things. Some of his work is in a Museum like a paddlewheeler ship use to go on the river Danube. If you put it on water it is in perfect working condition. You brought me back some beautiful memories. Miss my Dad so much. Thank you. I absolutely adore your Gotham City. You really could work on movies doing they movie sets and with that kind of a job you could travel the world. Well done. 👍+🖖= I know it is not Startrek but anyway✅🤩
The police lights really completes the scene for me!! I love when you incorporate your nerdiness into your DIY's. Keep it up Danie :)
This actually made me think of your time away where you focused on your art. You have amazing talent as an artist, which shows through in all of your designs and builds. 👏🏻 If I did a scene, it would most likely be Harry Potter, but I also would love just a meadow of flowers with trees on the background, maybe a stream going through it.
Any of those ideas sounds marvelous!
What is this? A @Nerdforge cross over episode?
👏 That's AWESOME, Danie! 👏
Also, do consider teaming up with the Norwegian Queen Martina! You two together... that'd be EPIC!! ❤
Please Please Please do more of these Book Nooks, Danie! I would love to see you tackle LOTR, Harry Potter - anything!
my maiden name is Gotham so growing up I just naturally became obsessed with Batman. so I approve of this and now need to recreate it!
The depiction of Gotham in the Rocksteady Studios Batman games (Arkham Asylum, Arkham City, and Arkham Knight) will forever be my favorite
I wish I could like this 34324323 times, WOW!
I feel lucky to see you having fun while doing your job. You’ve kept your child-like nature. Love it!
HOLY DIORAMAS, Batman! Love the creativity. What fun!
Danie! You continue to amaze me! The detail on this is absolutely incredible. Loved watching this.
As someone who hasn’t kept up with new movies, I have always loved the Tim Burton Batman’s. This means more than you know though, bc my first boyfriend loved Batman. Almost 8 years ago he passed on, so Batman has become something completely different for me, and I just wanna say thank you for this. ❤️
Robert Patterson knocked it out of the park for me. Best Batman ever!
Even if I'm not the biggest Batman fan, this was really fun and impressive to watch.
I'm not a massive Super Hero fan BUT this is seriously one of my fave things you have done. The crafty creativity is insane and I felt your joy with you. Well done Danie!!
Hi Danie, Im 72 yr okd great grandma and started binge watching you after i saw the headboard you did for Alexandra Gater. All i can say is, "Where did you get those those wonderful toys?" Jack Nicholson is my favorite
I've been wanting to do one of these for YEARS and you just gave me so many ideas!!! I've wanted to make one for each season and have a sort of forest scene with a little walking trail. I'll look for bigger boxes because yours is so freaking amazing and I now realize a regular sized book nook will NOT do for me. I've never done anything like this and I will figure it all out. I am definitely picking up that thicker craft foam because the two types can make such amazing things! And I have some remote control lights from Amazon but now I want really cool ones like what you picked out!! Thank you so much for sharing this! You're such an inspiration. Ooooooo I need to do a dragon cave!!! Ooooooo !!! Hahaha. Man my wheels are turning now!!
As Robin would say “holy miniatures Batman”. 🤩you are rockstar Danie a geeky rockstar 🤟🏼🤓
What a fun project...
You are so talented and creative. I always enjoy your channel, whether it's a room makeover in your house or a furniture project. Your channel appeals to all kinds of people. I'm a 62 year old grandmother of 6 grandsons, they love all things Batman. I live in Texas !
Grandma also checking in from Texas. 👋
I Luv Dioramas! Nerd Forge does a lot of them also. It's good u spent time on the background no one's going to see because u never know what someone will be obsessed with! Great Job As Usual!!!
Yes! I love Nerdforge's book nook!
It is absolutely adorable - as is your excitement while making it! 😻😻😻 You are not only so very skilled but also so very lovable! ❤️❤️❤️ You make my days so much better, thank you for that!
You are so incredibly talented and creative! ☀️ I love that you're never afraid to try something new or venture outside your comfort zone.
I know literally nothing about Batman but this is just the coolest thing ever! 😱
This turned out so cool! I love all the little details you put into it. I honestly thought Nerdforge had put up another video on book nooks before I saw that it was yours. It's sad that the steam damaged the street level. That was such a cool effect and really brought the scene to life.
Batman is one of my favorite comic book characters. I've honestly enjoyed all of the Batman movies so far (haven't seen the latest one jet). Some are a little more cringe than others, but they're all fun to watch.
A book nook idea that I think would be neat would be to take famous bookstores from fiction and real life and create a little "alley". There are some really fabulous ones that would look really neat in something like that.
Michael Keaton is my favorite, forever. I have watched all of the films but the first (hugs for Val) hold a special place in my heart. Also Ben truly wasn't the worst.
Holy smoke, Batman!
You did an amazing job, Danie! I love it!
Your videos are the best thing for a lazy Saturday after a long hectic week with a great balance of quirky humor, awe-inspiring projects, and authenticity. Thank you!
My 3 year old daughter thought it was cool, but it needs people and unicorns. She also wants to watch you play with it ;)
Are you kidding me with this? RESPECT!!! If I had the talent (and patience) to create something like this I would definitely do a Harry Potter scene. But since I don’t anticipate that happening, I will just continue to admire your talent and creativity, and share it with everyone I know!!!
This really is the coolest project ever! As someone who doesn’t own a single power tool and loves miniatures, I love the result and your nerdiness. Ok, I’m off to build myself a diorama of Calcifer’s fireplace… I will be waiting for a Star Wars project from you!
When you were doing the final close up of you scene, I was expecting a little mini Batman to walk round the side of the building. Looks realistic. Great job.
This is truly epic! Your attention to detail continues to astound me with every project! This is definitely your best so far! It’s wonderful!
My 6-year old daughter Roxy loves watching your videos and now wants to watch a Batman movie (she already loves Star Wars and Lord of the Rings). Here's what she said about this project: That was Amazing! It was more interesting to watch than I expected. I would love to make a Frozen book nook with my mom. I love watching your videos! (She also asked me if we could make the giant maze from your other video, but I don't have that kinda time!)
Thanks for all the cool stuff you make and for being a great example of a woman "making" her own way in the world!
Love this!!!!
I'm a huge book person, so much so that I don't actually have a TV but instead many bookshelves filled ....I would definitely add a nook .
I love that you can do anything your heart desires. It also give us so much joy to watch you have fun while doing these projects. More of this in the future please. ♥️
creativity and skill off the charts. (thanks also to the zapped up video editing touches) Enjoying the fact that you'll get to enjoy this each and every time you check out your Batman books. May this be an inspiration to many of us.
I love Batman too! I grew up watching the old version of Batman on TV in the 80's. That Batman nook is very dope!! I love it!!🥰
Batman 1989. Jack nicholson combined with Batdance from prince ! O my oh my !
Love all your videos. I love you humor and just everything about your work !
Picture the scene. I sit down to watch this video, and I'm imagining a corner of a room decorated like Gotham City. An area for you to sit in, and read your books. Then you produced the box. Wait a minute, Danie ain't gonna fit in there! (insert laughing emoji as it's not working for me today - bit like my brain lol). So, off I went to Google. Well, you learn something new every day. Thanks for the education Danie, now back to the video (you can say that in a 'to the Batcave' way if you like) x
"To silicone something" is my new favorite verb 😂
I loved Batman returns so damn much as a kid 🖤
That is so cool! I'd totally do something like that. I'm thinking Gremlins! Thanks so much for the fun video and inspiration as always. PS loved the Batman shirt at the beginning :)
I love the absolute joy in your face when you are being creative, this is so cool and I’m inspired to make a book nook of my own!
Amazing ! The kids and I put together a Batman bathroom for my husband. LOL
The X-Men Danger Room would make an awesome book nook!
Wow, I have never cared for Batman... BUTTTT your creativity is unreal. It pushes me in my own creativity. (Now I have to watch ALL the Batmans!)
This was really fun!
Adam West is my favorite Batman. 💥 POW!
this is awesome. I love your take on the whole "book nook" aesthetic. Keaton will always be my favorite Batman, Nicholson will always be my favorite Joker actor, Hamill will always be my favorite Joker voice actor (Arkham Knight) and Pfeiffer will always be my favorite Catwoman ❤️. also so many Kenobi lovings. I love everything about this ❤️
Danie, this was so much fun to watch. Makes me want to do one, just so hard to pick a theme. Generally, I am not into "dark theme" so the later Batman movies are not my thing. I feel the Michael Keaton Batmans were a bit more comic than gritty. I enjoyed them and still quote them.
I know it’s viewed as pretty bad but Batman Forever is my absolute favourite. I LOVED the Riddler SO much.
I'm suprised that you choosed Kuala Lumpur city in the intro. The Batman was awesome! Battison is cool. All the characters are awesome!
Love, love, love today’s Saturday morning with my favourite DIY’er! The background is not a waste, it’s vital. Love all the textures in the 3D portion, so much to feast the eye on. Love all the little goodies-car, posters, graffiti, garbage etc. The lights? Perfect. Perfect! The flashing police lights filling and defining the buildings and backstreets is icing on the cake. My best batman was Michael Keaton, hands down.
The background music sounds like a muse track. So cool!
Danie you are magic. It is fantastic. You are a set designer. Hollywood is next stop!
⭐⭐⭐⭐
This is really fun and awesome. Book nook was never really explained (some examples would have helped) and then it occurred to me this is basically a diorama.
WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!! WHAM BAM POW AWESOME!!!!!!!!!
Michael Keaton no question. What imagination! And it looked like a lot of fun to do.
Woooo! Danitune time! Only good part about working on a Saturday :)
You have a teeny tiny smoke machine!!! I am LIVING for it!!!
Wow wow wow! Holy told Robin! Soooo cute!
Love Batman! If I did a scene, maybe it would be a Star Wars inspired one, although I have a lots of Star Wars Legos. I always wanted to do a miniature house of my home.
Seriously one of the most fun projects I’ve ever watched on TH-cam.😀 So inspiring!🥰
This is so cool! Love when people showcase their personality in their bookcase.
Wow! This is stunning, you out did yourself, not only should you be proud to have this but also that you made this. This indeed is one of a kind
Wowwwwwwwwwwwwwwww Danie!!! This is literally the coolest thing I have ever seen in my WHOLE entire life!!! 🤩🤩 Super awesome, amazing work love all the care and little details you put into this!! Definitely added this to my list of things I want to do but won't get around to do for like 5 years probably loolll looking forward to your next project!!
Your talent has no limits!
DANIE!!!! THE LIGHTS!!! omg I'm so glad that site worked out...yanno...I realized after that you'd go wild with the little stuff they had!!! And the STEAM. Perfection lady, perfection
feeling sick today, just started feelig better, Thanks Danie
I was smiling throughout, I can feel your excitement
Danie, I OF COURSE, love this video in particular. Miniature stuff, BATMAN...I'm here for this
OMG thanks a bunch - I'm ALL THE WAY down the Evan's Designs rabbit hole. LIGHTNING effect?? Yes, Please!!
BATMAZING Danie! You've outdone yourself. Bravo!
This looks awesome!^^ Great job, a fellow Batman fan approves! 😄🦇
Danie you are clearly having so much fun in this video
Wow that's amazing, my grandson would absolutely love this plus he's a real book worm and he's a huge batman fan, thanks for sharing you've given me a few ideas. ❤🏴
Wow amazing! Your creativity is off the charts. But silly me I thought by book nook you meant a structure to put your books INSIDE so I kept wondering where the books were going within that scenic box. 😂 Well done, Danie! 👏👏👏
I'm not a superhero fan, so I really can't say I dig the Batman theme, but your talent and skills have, as always, knocked this project way out of the park! You've given me inspiration to work on the book nook I've been planning, based on one of my favorite books!
Batman is my favorite super hero. Christian Bail was my favorite batman.
Love your creativity, positivity and sense of humor. Envy your painting ability. Not a huge Batman fan, but knew this would be interesting. Loved the commenter's idea of the Weasley's kitchen. You make my Saturday mornings! I did miss the Boop. . .
Shut up and take my money!!! Holy crap this looks so amazeballs!!! I'd love to pay you to do a HP book nook for my bookcase!! WOW you never cease to amaze me Danie!!!
Seventh grade me is very jealous of your diorama skills! This is so wonderful! I’m so excited this really came out well and I think it’s gonna be a great feature for you for years to come!
I think so too! I love it so much!
I have to stay off my broken arch on my right foot for a month and you just gave me a awesome project to help keep me busy and I know mine won’t be as FREAKING AMAZING as yours. I am totally obsessed with this.. and Michael Keaton
This was SUCH a cool project. Miniature stuff is a ton of fun - but it's HARD! You did a wonderful job
This is awesome, Danie! I had a great time watching you design and put this all together. Your creativity and problem-solving skills are amazing! This is art and engineering and design and architecture all together. Such a fun and interesting video to watch!🌸
It's gorgeous! My daughter will love it. She really has it with miniatures...
Batman returns will always be my favorite! :) Good job on this project Danie!
Not even a batman fan but this is amazing. Someone very cool
I LOVE this! It turned out so well, you did great! And shoutout to the editor for doing such a fun job with this one! Really brought everything together.
I would 100% do a studio ghibli inspired home, Kiki's home from Kiki's Delivery Service where her mom does her potions OR the bakery to go with my cookbooks.
I saw the bat signal and came running but that doggone joker pulled a stunt and blocked my arrival. Robin was out having coffee some side kick he turned out to be. Maybe I should’ve called catwoman she’s reliable and I love her outfit. What a great DIY. As always this is the reason I get up early on SaturDanie’s. My favorite?? Michael Keaton. I grew up with the Korny series lol
This might just be my favorite project you've ever made! It looks amazing, especially with those lighting elements. Really inspiring me to actually do fun things with my own bookshelves.
So cute! The police car lights are an awesome touch. I love how much fun YOU had making this.
Best diorama EVER!!! 💙👍
I'm always amazed at how creative you can be and how you embrace your geeky side. Great video
Really enjoyed watching this. Believe it or not, it gives me inspiration for a Jane Austen book nook for all my miniatures. Thanks!
That was my first thought, a JA scene! 💕
this is INCREDIBLE. the attention to detail is amazing.
I’m always amazed by your work. I love the attention to detail!
My goodness woman you are insanely talented. That looks AMAZING!!! Squealing with you! Well done!
Bat-fantastic! Great use of items to create the effects! The idea lends itself to so many other book themes! It reminds me of diorama’s we did for school projects, just up a lot of notches! I am thinking of mystery bookshelves, a child’s storybook shelf, Dickens theme, got to stop , I am blowing out my creative juices! Thanks for inspiration! Blessed and safe days!
This is epic Danie! My son was memorized watching over my shoulder 🥰 Thinking we are going to have to make our own!
memorized, lol! So cute!
