How to build an Epic Star Wars Diorama 

Cheers dude, that means a lot. It was something I really tried to focus on as many of the dioramas I have seen haven't managed to get that really overgrown feeling. Mines not perfect by any means but I was pretty happy with the result and learned loads in the process.

Yeah..... I have been known to create certain things from time to time ;)

Cheers man! Really appreciate it 🙏

Cheers dude 👍

Thanks. Appreciate the kind words

Nice one! Appreciate the kind words. I've got another star wars build coming very soon. Thanks for watching.

Very kind of you to say 👍

Thanks dude, mich appreciated 👍

All in the details and even though in the movie, the explosion ends that sequence... I added the second speeder and head turn to further tell the story. Glad you liked it and appreciate the support!👍

You are very welcome. I'm happy you found it interesting. 👍

Cheers dude, all one big experiment and trying out many of the techniques for the first time. Definitely things I would change if I were to build again but learned so much in the process. Thanks for stopping by 👍

Haha I have several bags of sculptamold in my stock. It is very much my go to for creating land mass. Love it!! Again - thanks for all the tips and thanks for watching 👍

Cheers dude. I'm glad you liked it. Thanks for watching 👍

👍👍👍

Cheers!! I'm glad you found something else in my back catalogue that you enjoyed. I try to keep the content varied ranging from beginner builds to me just going wild.

@@creativecuts7803 it's good to let yourself go with creativity know and again, this is where some of our best work comes from 🙂👍. Btw , the explosion method looks so good 👏💯.

Thanks for stopping by. Glad you enjoyed it

Thanks! Appreciate you stopping by and taking the time to watch. 👍

Sir, your kind words humble me 👍

Very kind of you to say! Relatively new channel and just been quietly plugging away. Lots more videos on the way but welcome 👍👍👍

Cheers dude

Cheers bud!

Sounds cool. I love using old toys for builds.

Haha I would love to make a realistic willow tree - but haven't found a way that I am happy with yet. The search continues... thanks for watching

@@creativecuts7803 I made a twisted wire tree about 35 feet tall in 1/35 scale. It looks fine but then most dead trees have most of the branches broken off or just stubs. Very few stay in place after a few years. Now a live one is a whole other story. So far I'm working on a twisted trunk and the major branches, as with the dead one. I'm soldering on smaller twisted branches to fill it out and then will coat it with latex for bulk. Not sure how I'm going on from there. Get the skeleton done first, worry about the leaves later.

@@sabrekai8706 nice dude, I never tried a wire tree. I always end up using actual wood from the forest. I'm always on the look out for some narly piece of wood. I would love to see it when it's done. Best of luck with your build

@@creativecuts7803 First time I went to college, I was in Forestry. Spent 2 years in the bush looking at trees. I've always found the kit trees and most home built ones to be too bulky/clunky. Now is the best time to get out with your camera and start snapping pics of various trees. They are very slim, and have endless branches off of branches. Difficult to duplicate for a scale like appearance. The other thing about kit built ones is that they are tiny. A 50 footer in 35th scale is a tad under 18 inches tall. I don't go to that extreme but my wire tries are in the 8-10 inch range and I'm looking at a dry weed I snagged a couple days ago that will end up at 12 plus.

@@sabrekai8706 haha I completely share your frustration. I don't bother with kit trees because in my opinion, they are not even close. I have seen some great wire examples. If your interested check out the tree I made for my floating island build. It ended up being huge. Leaves could do with a little work but on the whole I'm pretty happy.

Nice one John! Appreciate the support. The more i push the boundaries of my patience, the more I realise that i am actually more patient than I thought haha. Next video on the way soon.

I'm glad you like it

Cheers man. I don't know that game but I looked it up and defo see what you mean haha. Thanks for watching 👍

Your very welcome. Thank you for watching and getting involved👍

Thank you very much for your kind words

Thank you sir!

Thank you so much. I really appreciate the feedback

Thank you sir. Yeah I got the idea from RU-vid. Not a new idea by any means but I found myself often getting frustrated because they weren't executed well. Glad you liked it. 👍

Thanks really appreciate your feedback and good luck with your future projects 👍

Thank you for taking the time to watch and getting involved. Really enjoying building stuff at the moment and in doing so it is pushing me into new places so it is a constant source of discovery, as much about myself as it is discovering new techniques etc. Appreciate to support👍

Thank you so much. I thought this would be of use to you. Glad you liked it 👍

Thank you so much!

Your kind words humble me. Thank you

Thanks for stopping by. Appreciate the support.

Thank you good sir! Appreciate the kind words. With some careful placement and varying the lengths, the explosion turned out better than expected. All one big experment haha 👍

Cheers dude, really appreciate that 👍

Thank you for your kind words

Thanks. Really appreciate your kind words. More videos on the way soon!

Hey, thank you so much for your kind comments. Really appreciate the support. Next build is in progress and so far so good 👍

Hahaha that really made me smile. Take a good run up and dive in head first to the rabbit hole. So much great info on RU-vid and so many different directions you can take it. And if you ever need any pointers always feel free to give me a shout 👍

@@creativecuts7803 I definitely will, probably gonna cruise through more of your stuff to start off with!

Thank you for your kind words. More videos on the way soon

Thank you sir, appreciate your kind words 👍

Cheers! Thanks for watching!

Thanks a lot!

Thank you very much for you kind words and yeah haha tried to tell a little story with the end montage. Glad you liked it 👍

Thank you very much

Cheers, glad you liked it

Thank you so much

Thanks. More videos on the way soon

Thanks man, really appreciate your feedback

@@creativecuts7803 Do you have a link or place I could find the horse hair please?

@@creativecuts7803 brilliant thank you 👍 going to really help with an Amon Hen board I’m working on

Thank you. Really appreciate the support and there are more videos on the way soon.

Thank you for your kind words. I am happy you found it interesting. The "wire" is fibre optic strands from a terrible light i bought on amazon for cheap. I did some testing and fishing line has a similar effect although maybe less bright. Hope that helps and happy to answer any other questions.

Amazing to hear. So glad you found some inspiration and really hope your build works out. Would love to see it. Thanks for the support and more videos on the way. 👍

Haha great question, never thought about the dust. But to be fair it is actually quite robust so either a transparent case or a once over with a vacuum cleaner should do it. Thanks for getting involved and your support 👍

👍🖖✌️

You are very welcome. Thank you for watching and getting involved 👍

I bought online a long time ago from some hobby shop. Sometimes I go 'off peist' and end up looking at model railway stores or dolls house stuff.

Best of luck dude. Hit me up of you get stuck. Always happy to help

Haha no I don't work in IT but went to art school and have always worked in creative jobs. I do this in my spare time as a way to balance the stress and pressures of my job. Thanks for taking the time to watch. 👍

🙏👍

Thanks man, appreciate the support

Thank you dude, really appreciate the support and more videos on the way soon

Thank you sir. Very kind of you to say

Yeah man fantastic stuff.

Yeah it was my first attempt at anything like this. Definitely a few things I would change but for a first try I'm really happy

@@creativecuts7803 Yh, I agree. The idea itself is genius. I was planning on making painted ones made of cotton around wire or "something" ,but now I think I will work on your method using clear acrylic sticks as base. Thanks a lot for sharing.

Cheers buddy! I think I have some tablets for that lol 😆

😎😎😎

Luke Towen - the og of youtube dioramas. But paepercuts has a good one too. Hope that helps a little. Thanks for watching

Thanks for the feedback. I will make sure to keep the volume down in the future. Thanks for stopping by and more videos on the way soon

Thank very much. Really appreciate the kind words. Great that you are getting into the hobby. Pretty new to it all myself, although I have been building 40k terrain on and off for years. This diorama took about 3 weeks but I also work a job in between building so actual build time maybe 10 days. Let me know if you would find a video on "getting into dioramas" useful?

@@creativecuts7803 100% would benefit from a vid like that! Am focusing on ww2 era land vehicles but my goal is to do a big starwars scene eventually! :)

That's great 👍 fantastic way to get into it. And I have added this topic to my list of future videos. Thanks again for taking the time and best of luck with your projects. Would love to see how you get on.

Thanks man. Very kind of you to say. I dont have any links as I collected them from my local garden centre and pet shop. Basically anywhere that sells aquarium supplies. Fake topery balls are great too. You get loads of plants in one item. Some ferns I did order online from ebay I think a long time ago. The are sold for weddings. Sorry can't help more but hope that points you in the right direction
