I show you how to assemble miniature windows and doors, and install glass using acetate sheets. I show you how to 3D print and paint your own miniature details, like chairs, tables, cast iron benches. Next, show you how to add working LED lighting to your scale model dioramas, dollhouses, wargaming terrain, model railway scenery, and military WW2 dioramas. I show you how to paint dioramas using spray cans, acrylic paint, acrylic washes, enamel washes, airbrushing. Then, I show you how to paint a brass finish using alclad chrome paints. I show you how to scratchbuild furniture using styrene plastic sheets and strips. After that, I show you how to add architectural details with basswood and balsa wood strips, and dollhouse molding and trim for miniature cornice, baseboard, and more. I show you how to photograph scale models to look realistic in night time lighting, as well as outdoor natural light. I use miniature diecast model cars to add realism in the diorama.
