Great video Desi! I’m so tempted to try it out!!
Thanks Joao! Give it a try. You’ll find it’s fun plus you end up adding a really personal touch to the collection. 👍🏻
Best diorama videos around!!! I love your videos!!!!!!
Thanks so much, James!
Appreciate you making this for me brother, absolutely love it👏🏾
Glad you liked it my friend!!! Always good to hear feedback. Appreciate it! 👍🏻🙏🏻
Looking forward to more diorama content 👍🏾
More to come!
Awesome videos! I've been making dioramas for a few years and it is nice to see the techniques other people use. It's such a cool hobby.
Thanks for watching! Indeed, learning new techniques and incorporating them into the process keeps it fun!
So Therapeutic 🤤🤤🤤
The way you make these rocks is absolutely stunning. Love how the dry brushing gives it that texture and make it appear so real. What a base Desy. nice work. Looking forward till your next video. Stay crafted! ✍️
Thanks Will! It’s the simple techniques that really makes the piece come to life. Can’t wait to release more episodes!
Exactly... that dry brushing technique looks so simple and it's so so effective. I will create some myself in the near future, for sure!
Thanks for posting! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for watching! 👍🏻
Love it! Keep them coming !
Thanks Optical! Will do!
Great video . I'm totally gonna give this a try.
Thanks! Definitely give it a shot. Hope you have some fun with the process!
Again, great tutorial👍👍 It’s a matter of not over thinking it. For more details in the snow you can make imprints of shoes by using spare parts of other figures.
Thanks!! And that’s a great idea with foot prints!
Awesome I’ll make a jungle one for predator or a bat cave
That’s the idea! That would be awesome!
Awesome tutorial mate
Thanks Maniak! Appreciate the feedback!
Only 3 videos so far, but I am really enjoying it. You have a good cadence and soft voice giving great step by step instructions.
And I would be very interested in like a top corner of a building. Like how Spider-Man or Batman would be standing up on to look out over the city
Thanks so much Zachary! I’d love to do a building or alley scene for this series. It’s definitely in the plans!
@@metamorphiccustoms yeah even a simple one similar to that classic Spider-Man figure coming with the 2 sided corner wall. But even just giving the techniques so it can be understood and scaled up would be super helpful. Thanks again
@@Kaznil46 Absolutely! Consider it coming soon!
Awesome video my friend, thank you for the inspiration
You’re very welcome! And thank you for watching!
Superb diorama! I've been thinking about doing things like this for my display for quite sometime. This video definitely helped with understanding what goes into the creative process and the build. Thank you!
You’re very welcome and thank you!! Good luck with your diorama building! More episodes coming soon…
If you can I would love to see one with a old and weathered paved road. Be prefect for post apocalypse displays.
That’s one is in my short list! Coming soon!
@@metamorphiccustoms Sweet. My dream display for my Fallout figs is starting to come together lol
Nice one Desi. I'm learning a lot from these tutorials and really enjoying them. Thanks.
Thanks Andre! Really glad you're liking them!
Great build, surprised you don't magnetized the back of this, just in case one would "fold" for storage or in case one needs to move just snap it back together.
Thanks! That’s a great point. That would have been a great place to use magnets!
Great video Desi 😎 👍 you've definitely "carved" out a niche in the 1/6 collecting hobby (see what I did there) 😁💎🙌
Thanks so much man! LOL, definitely great to be able to bring these tutorial episodes to the community!
Oh, I see that mug at the top, how many shots of dirty paint water??😎
LOL, Too many. But not out of that mug. Color coding did trick! Black mug = unpleasant beverage.
I'm not a creative at all and you have made this look so easy ! Thank you for doing so it's given me the push to give it a go myself :)
A couple of the links don't work for me here in the UK so can I ask what type of paint you use please ? I want it to stick nicely lol
You’re very welcome and thank you for watching! Happy to hear you’re going to give it a shot! Most hobby or craft paints will work. For painting terrain (like rocks and sand) I use Decoart Americana or Delta Ceramcoat.
@@metamorphiccustoms perfect thank you so much for the reply ,I have placed my order 😀
How long can you apply that snow mix until it dries and it's unusable? How about that terrain mix? Thank you very much!
You've got some time to work with it.
Snow/terrian once applied = Begins to get "unworkable" after an hour. Fully hardened overnight.
Snow/terrain mixture if left sealed in a container = up to a week or more if properly sealed.
(However, anythign mixed with tile grout lasts dries considerable faster even if sealed.)
