Make sure to check out Lachie's amazing Hobbits. Absolutely gorgeous job he did on those things. And the hours he put into them! Amazing.
Head over and show the guy some love and give him a sub! th-cam.com/video/OeA3s5vTRiA/w-d-xo.html
This is a masterpiece , I hope you complete the rest of the board by adding more trees and bushes especially in the yellow area under Bilbo's house, otherwise keep up your amazing work , very anxious to see Part 4 .
A Stunning display. Really amazing work Neil.
tabletop time collab with this wargaming board questionmark? would love to see an epic battle report on this! lol
alway like table top.. .. i could imagine doing a campaign!!?.
first time here..
Incredible and inspiring work! A build is never late, nor is it early, it arrives precisely when it means too.
Thanks man, couldn't have said it any better than that.😊
Perfect quote for a perfect build... Great job on the Shire love Bilbo's house mainly with the interior details. Can't wait for the next big build you do!
Onya Studs
Like everything.
Spoken like a true hero
In the old days... a talent like this would land you a job in a movie studio making miniature sets for movies
For real! Yes.
Still works for some project for sure
True
Sad how practical effects have been replaced by the absolute, lazy usage of CGI.
It’s supposed to be used as a tool, yet it’s being heavily relied on and used as much more these days
I've been a modeler for 40 years and a Tolkein nerd since I learned how to read. Awesome work and extra praise for not stopping and getting it done. When you start stage 2 (probably after the kids get out of college). You need several windows on the east side of Bagend, the Hobbit says these were the best rooms in the hole, they allowed morning sunshine to come in. Don't know if there were windows on the west side or not, story did not say.
The board looks absolutely insane! It clearly demonstrates the extreme efforts involved to make the final build!
This board is utterly staggering brother, I'm so damn proud of you, not just for this amazing hobby feet (hehe) but for your incredible resilience this year, and I cannot wait to roll some dice together on this bad boy very soon! Much love buddy
Hey thanks man, much appreciate dude. You're a true bro my dude. 💛 looking forward to rolling them dice!!! :)
Hobby FOOTS!
Wow! Amazing work from an amazing individual. We couldn't be more happy with how everything turned out, and the delays don't matter. Your family is top priority, which we commend. Thank you for everything you do for the hobby through this channel! You have a great community here, and we look forward to seeing your channel grow. Can't wait to see future projects :)
Thanks for being such bros Woodland Scenics! Good to know that the products come from people and not faceless company.
@@MrSupertrooper1 Agreed. And I think it goes without saying but thank you again Woodland Scenics for being such great and understanding people to work with.❤️
This build looks amazing and what's more amazing is that you accomplished this while holding down the house and taking care of your family. I hope your wife feels better and may 2022 be better to you and your family. Keep it up
right, right
This pretty sure is almost his full time job
Dude. I hope you score a super huge job in cinema as a modeler and miniature set builder. This video is amazing and your skills are superb. You didn't just create an environment. You made something utterly magical.
Simply incredible! It's so ridiculously detailed and I want to shrink myself down and live there.
haha, thanks dude :)
Wormy dealies
Mmh I know you oh WoRmy DeALiEs!
ok sub booster
The detail of Bilbo’s house having an interior just adds so SO much magic to the build. I can just imagine younger me seeing that and imagining that it’s all like that. The board is so very beautiful too. I’m currently dipping my toes into the wonderful world of basing at the moment, experimenting with water effects and greenery, and the more I do, the more I respect your outstanding skill.
Thanks Devan. Really appreciate that and really glad you like Bilbo's interior. I wish I could have done all of the interiors but it would have just added to much more time to everything. At least we got the one in there though 😊
I had no idea Neil was doing the interior haha and then when he sent me the footage of the finished board to cut into my edit I FREAKED OUTTTTTT jsut adds so much to it!
whats the time stamp
I love the detail! A friend of mine wanted to build realistic dollhouses and I told her to go for it, it's not much different than building stuff for wargaming. There's just something satisfying about building something in miniature.
Couldn't agree more and thank you. :)
WOW. MAN THIS IS GREAT. GOOD JOB 👏🏻
WOW. MAN THIS IS GREAT. GOOD JOB 👏🏻
I neither make terrains or play on terrains but I have just sat and watched an hour and half worth of videos of you building this project. I gotta say, crazy skills and those products look great. TBH I would have got as far as the plaster sheets, stepped back and thought, "hmm snowy mountains, my job here is done". Bravo sir.
Neil, this is outstanding. Amazing work keeping up momentum on this with everything else you have going on. Massive congratulations, I'm excited for the kickstarter! :-)
Got to say, love your influence on the hobby community! Such a positive fellow with some awesome videos!
@@theJedikid123 completely agree, it's brilliant to see!
Thanks Brent. You're the absolute best dude💛💛💛
Absolutely breathtaking!! I’ve loved dioramas since I was a kid and my uncle would show me model train displays. I love watching how you go about creating your different projects. The detail you put into them is stunning. I could sit here all day watching … maybe a Rivendell board in the future? 😂😂
where are these fantastic models displayed? Man you are the rock!!! Well done! It’s so beautiful!
Omg! The interior of Bilbo's house is so cute!
Another epic build, I envy people who'll get to actually play on it
this has to be the most stunning diorama work I've ever seen, especially out of all the lotr themed ones. The amount of detail is mindblowing, I'm mezmerized. Incredible, incredible work
Thank you so much. You're too kind :)💛
HOLY HOBBITS ! An Incredible work / art and what ever sounds like an amazingly beatiful things as I remember ! Gratz ! It was pleasure to watch...
I already had tears in my eyes at the sight of the Shire so instilling peace and tranquility with its bizarre architecture, the atmosphere of an eternal holiday and unconcern hobbits. I am grateful to you for such painstaking work. And my subscribing for this. Thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yes!! Been so looking forward to this!
Just finished the video. Absolutely incredible! What a great project.
Hey, thanks a lot man. Much appreciated 😊
How goooooood was it!?
Amazing!!! I wish this video came with a secondary video of just hours of footage of the finishing work (unedited, no narration necessary). It's so peaceful - I'd love to just have it on in the background. It would make conference calls way more interesting.
ahhh this really puts a smile on my face. Glad you are enjoying the content and can appreciate all the work that's going on behind the scenes. Cheers! 🙂
The Deep Pour Murky nails the theme for sure. Its really the only choice for murk and still water cuz its just so perfect. Where as with a couple of shades of blue u can diy ur other water effects. BELIEVE IN URSELF
this is absolutely incredible. The details are amazing. I hope your wife is well again. You are a hero to your family and to those of us who love the shire.
One of the most inspiring crafting TH-camr is at it again, creating magic to entertain and to teach !
As someone who designs and uses their own 3D printed designs in their builds.. bravo dude. I’ve been following this amazing project of yours from the start and you really really really truly knocked it out of the park. Not that I didn’t think you would.. your work is always top tier. Amazing job. Keep doing what you do. Forever a fan.
Ahhh, what a great comment. Put a huge smile on my face. Thanks man :)
And yeah, aren't these 3D printers just amazing? To be able to make your virtual creations come to life in your own hands like this is truly something else. Cheers!
Glad to make ya smile, buddy! It is an amazing feeling for sure.
must have a huge Home to keep all these wonderful models, projects, hobbies fine work.
I always found these dioramas so fascinating. I went to the Miniatur Wunderland in Hamburg and it was really impressive but this stuff with the lighting and everything is equally amazing I would say! I can't even put it into words. These miniature worlds just hit different haha
I'm in love with the final result ! Absolutely awesome!! Need to get me a 3D printer so I can get some of those sweet hobbit holes. Awesome project, well done!
He smashed it aye!
This will be you in a few years
@@durthang1000 haha lets see, Neil and Lochy are masters
Table top war games are not my passion, but this blew me away. Amazing!
Beyond words.....makes you want to be in it....Love the medieval times ...and you capture the rigidness of it... AWESOME!!! Multi-talented, you are!
Mannn I would just sit there and stare at it at night with all the lighting. Just looks so warm and majestic/ mesmerizing. Incredible build. Makes me want to go back and watch the series again lol
i think i´ll never ever get tired of these timelapse/ music compilations.
Great video, great table! Keep it up!
the amount of love and dedication you put into these projects just amaze me every time.
i do love crafting but man i would never have the patience for a big project like this
props to you
RTH: "you can buy painted rocks to save yourself time!"
Me: looks at thousands of rocks in my yard...
Wow!! Holy smokes!! This is phenomenal!!
This was one of the most beautiful and touching things I have ever seen!!!! It was beyond incredible really!!! You need billions of viewers!!! ❤️❤️❤️🥳🥳🥳
This is by far one of the best thing i've seen this year. It's just amazing.
I love seeing people be passionate about things. Very inspiring. Nice job.
I was 11 years old when I came to watch this masterpiece in the cinema, and Bilbo's phrase is about the fact that you only have to step on the road... It has become my motto in tourism. After all, how well said
Absolutely fabulous! Coincidentally, I just finished watching the LOTR for the umteenth dozen time!
The quality of this production, the time commitment, the care to detail of video editing to make this presentation, AMAZING. And yes, subbing to Lachie's channel also :-)
Very beautiful. I always loved terrain. It was one of my favorite parts of building model railroads with my grandfather
Wow just wow absolutely gorgeous. Do you display your work of art people would be so fascinated.
Hey Niel!
Once again, completely mind blowing result.
Such a masterpiece. Credit where credit is due 👏
Glad to see that you listend to the feedback I gave you in the last video about time spend at sponsors etc.👍
Lastely and most important, I wish you and your family the best. I dont know you in person, or exactly what illness your wife is going through, but man, you seem like a great guy. Life sometimes aint fair. But hard times will pass, stay strong 🙏❤
Allready looking forward to the next project - but I get if you prioritize other things atm.
Thanks Simon. Really appreciate the words of encouragement man. 💛 And yeah, made sure to tone it back a bit this time around. :)
What a project! It's one thing to start something on that scale, and another thing entirely to finish it. Great work! The smoke and heat this summer in the prairies has been nuts, glad we are finally getting some rain!
Yeahhh I've really been enjoying the rain and cooler weather as well. :)
In the hole in your socks there lived a hobbit. Not a nasty, dirty, wet hole, filled with the ends of worms and an oozy smell, nor yet a dry, bare, sandy hole with nothing in it to sit down on or to eat: it was a Sock-hole, and that means comfort. ;) great work btw !!! thx for your passion :)
Absolutely amazing. Beautiful, beautiful work. I never knew that they made such things to make a gorgeous landscape. Really well done!👍🏻
Thank you so much for all of your hard work! It shows and im so glad to see its starting to pay off for you. I came to find you through your collab with jazza and couldn't be happier! Thank you for keeping the shire alive and well in our hearts!
Hey, thank you Cody. Really appreciate the kind words and I love seeing peeps from Jazza still here 😊
What an amazing finale to such a wonderful project! Have loved seeing you make all the progress on it and it turned out so beautifully! The level of detail with the full interiors, terrain, lighting, etc., all so impressive! Really sorry to hear you have had a tough year, wishing all the best for you and your family in the future~
Thanks Devon. I very much appreciate your feedback.😊😊😊 And, I very much appreciate the well wishes. Thank you for that.💛
This is unreal! I’m just coming back to modelling having left it behind as a teenager (15 or so years ago). Tech has changed so much since then and this video has brought me right up to speed. Such an amazing piece of work! 🙌
This is amazing!! I wish to see a longer and detailed closeup overall look video of this masterpiece!! Cheers!
This is absolutely incredble. One of the coolest things I have ever seen built on youtube!
I was just scouting your channel for the final video to the Shire yesterday! And here it is!! Really amazing. Your builds are always so well thought out, so detailed, and just flat out extraordinary. Thanks for sharing this awesome journey with us!
haha good timing! Thanks Jacob, really appreciate the kind words.🙂
Wow ! wonderful decoration. great sharing
It’s crazy seeing you use the stuff I watched my uncle make train model terrain with for this. Same brand and all. Masterpiece!
Congratulations!! This is the best gaming board I have ever seen. It is an inspiring work with crazy level of details and a great use of the grass. Inspiring piece of work. You did an astonishing effort here mate. We need more photos in Instagram 😀
Been fun keeping up with the build and it really came together in the end. What a great piece
Hope your wife is recovering, sending well wishes.
Stunning built, thanks for sharing.
Incredible! It's pretty heroic what you do in and out of the studio. Big respect.
This is great! Keep up the excellent work! I love the lights! Good going, Niel!
I have been looking forward to this video for a long time. Amazing work per usual Niel! As a Lord of the Rings fan I absolutely love this.
I love seeing people dedicate themselves fully to their craft. Amazing work.
Man honestly thank you for what you did. this is crazy ! Feel so good to see the Shire, this feeling is so difficult to express but it feels like home just at looking at. Would be a dream to have this kind of landscape in my home
Oh my word this is one of the videos I’ve anticipated the most, and it has filled my heart so full…My favourite video on this app…I want this whole diorama all to myself, it makes all my dreams come true…Thank you Neil❤️❤️
Wow, thank you so much. :) Glad you enjoyed the project and the video was up to your expectations. Really put a smile on my face reading your comment. :D
Just about shed a manly tear when you started making internal sets for the houses.
You were under no obligation to flex your skills that hard, but you did.
Subscribed.
Thank you so much for sharing this epic project. Your Shire is jaw-droppingly beautiful, and the production quality of your videos is nuts! I can't begin to imagine how much effort that goes into making them.
Wow! Really enjoyed watching you piece this together, and the final result.
Man when I watched your “Ultimate Wizards Tower” video I was amazed. But this board is something else, so cool with so many different places to impress. Absolutely fantastic project.
Thanks Simon :)
I love that Ultimate Wizards Tower!
Finally, the Shire is finished, I've been waiting for this.... it's really beautiful, epic and very realistic.... always like your works,... someday I also want to make something like this, thanks ,you always inspire me.... stay healthy buddy
Thanks my friend, appreciate the kind words!
@@RealTerrainHobbies You're very welcome Neil 😊
Wow, this is really amazing, I don't believe how you have patient for make that, that is really a passion.
Wow dude. You have blown me away with your talent, genuine vulnerability in sharing about your struggles at home, and just amazing attitude. I wish you all the best and look forward to watching more of your models!!!
It looks fantastic a incredible job well done. You forgot to make the party tree. The great eleven tree in the shire that the hobbits party at... incredible job though 👏👏👍
Yeah I should have planned it out better for that. I'll have to make a fourth edition to the board down the road sometime with the party tree :)
This is such a massive undertaking and you did it so well!
Ah thank you so much!
All this board is one of the many shapes of love
WOW i admire your perseverance and your strong interest in building realistic board war games cheers
Absolutely amazing work!!! I have not words for describe the incredible detail level, the spectacular look, your passion in it...congratulations. Greetings from Spain
You are the reason i got into doing dioramas and terrain. Its one of my favorite things about this hobby! Your work is so freaking inspiring! Best wishes to you and yours
Hey, that's amazing to hear. That fact I've brought people into the hobby like that is just so amazing and puts a big smile on my face. 😊
Wonderful Job, with a Lot of Great Ideas for Me and My Model Railroad! Thanks.
Looks amazing my friend, great job, just rewatched all the hobbit films too so it’s crazy to see you build this. Sorry to hear you’ve had a tough year, much love to you and your family.
This amazing stuff! what a creation man. Good Job!!
Absolutely Amazing!
At 0:42 , if you look towards the upper right hand side of the screen; way into the background in this Lord of the Rings scene, there is an area that appears smokey or misty; there was a rumor that when this scene was shot, a vehicle had driven on a dirt road accidentally; but the incident was considered a "happy accident" because in post- production, the visual effects folks simply digitally erased the car out of the scene and kept the dust it produced; that misty, smokey effect.
Amazing work and appreciate your honesty about your life. Wishing you all the best for 2022!
Good job man, a lot of people don't know the amount of effort that goes behind this so, really.. well done.
This is the best diorama of Shire I've ever seen!! Mind blowing details. That feel is there and I can feel it. Thanks for bringing my dream destination to life. Really enjoyed every bit of this video. keep up the amazing work. Looking forward to see more amazing stuff!
Wow, thank you so much! Really appreciate the kind words.😊
Just building this took loads of time. But also filming this and editing took a lot of time as well! On top of him taking on more responsibilities in regards to his family. This is awesome.
Great play mat! Your children must be very happy!
love the content as always Neil - thr production value of these videos is always astounding. The cinematography is second to none in the creatives community on TH-cam. 10/10
Amazing job, the attention to detail is stunning
this popped up on my feed, don't know a thing about wargaming but it was awesome to see someone passionate about what they do make a work of art. Incredible!
Absolutely beautiful and a great gaming board. You are not only a talented creator but a wonderful storyteller as well
Ahh thanks Jennifer. I really appreciate that. Glad you like the gaming board and also that you think I'm a good storyteller. That's a big compliment for me 😊
All the best for you and the family in 2022. Especially in Health. The Shire is beautiful!
One word…AMAZING! You have a real talent! Thank you for sharing 👍
This is one beautiful diorama masterpiece, I hope your family is feeling a lot better. Take care & see you on your next video. :)
You're an outstanding artist and have inspired me in almost all of my projects! Keep pushing forward and prayers for you and your family.
Thanks so much for the kind words and for the prayers. Much appreciated 💛
Wow….how is that possible? Incredible work!
Simply stunning. I could be watching it the whole day. These videos are the reason why my TH-cam account is still working. Congratulations!
Wicked build. Basically one-upping level all the time! ^^
