Watch my review of the Hiya Toys Rambo that inspired this diorama: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-oyeq8Lnt4ZI.htmlsi=eMofC6Rn6Ek8aQ4q

Awesome diorama, man! Matches and highlights the quality of the miniature excellently. Great work.

Your best one yet no doubt!

Good movie. Great diorama.

Meeting you was awesome brother

Vincent, this is an outstanding piece man. Loved watching the process of this one unfold and the end result is perfect. Boylei is definitely the guy to get resin advice from!

Fantastic work Vin! The reason pour may have drew first blood but you salvaged it nicely!!

Amazing work!!! This is a fantastic Diorama!

Awesome movie and incredible execution on your part. You nailed this diorama, and I love the scene you chose to highlight!

The diorama looks amazing!!! You really captured the terrain beautifully!!! ❤😊❤

Just WOW! Incredible man! Your stuff has always been great, but this is off the charts! Looking forward to seeing you Saturday at JoeFest!

Looks great per usual. I find myself making dios when I get a figure I really like as well.

I really like this! Makes me want to do my own diorama even more!

It's Gorge-ous! 😂 Awesome piece!

Really awesome job! I’m gonna have to try that technique with the washes for stone. Boylei is a great guy. I bought him lunch a few months ago. We live nearby one another. His talent is outstanding! - Rick, USMC

Good job, buddy!

Great work, Vincent! Inspiring as always 🙌 That drip-bottle technique worked brilliantly! I'm also a fan of Boylei 👍 So glad to see that your resin pour worked out in the end! Overall fantastic job, man!

That so awesome video bro

Very talented

Nice video your really underrated

Hey bro, enjoyed talking with you at joes fest last night!

Great dio. First time I did resin I didn’t seal it good enough and it leaked just like yours

The diorama looks great! You really see where the attention detail made the difference. My only criticism would be the rope holding Rambo's pancho. It's too clean and white looking. I would dirty that up a bit before shooting any dio photos. It's kind of distracting to the eye... but other than that, it looks great!!!

I have been at that very same spot, down in the Othello Tunnels BC, a couple of times. Flying in from the UK...You have done a remarkable display there. :)

Wow this is very impressive New subscriber here , Matt sent me you're way lol Im a fellow rambo fan . Safe to say the brothers are very talented 👏🏻😊💕🔥 awesome work!

Stopping people from saying first

good dio video bro just starting, it s just magic! exactly the way a pro does it, I m in! cool project, my kind of scene, although mine are mostly interiors. mm, a heat gun... I d like to see more carefully the effect it has on foam next time if you have the chance, as it seems a very interesting technique to develop, a great - clean tool to work with. 2.00 I d mention that it seems like a waste of foam if you re to cover it recyclables, cardboard would make that shape for free, it flashes to me, as I crave for long straight pieces of foam myself I developed an eye for 'economy' - recovery to save most as possible I realise that if I had more money, I would not care as much about that, D 4.26 this is where I d take a break and put the fig in to have a 'sneak peek' a preview of the finished scene I actually do this to get the inspiration going, and it gives me an idea of what else I could get in the scene. as audience, I m at this same spot but trying to figure what YOU ll do. a good pace break here I d say to have a good flow. and.. it already looks good. the glue and nails yep, I use cheap Aylmers clear glue and ol nails to solidify and must say, you need nothing more, it s real tough, only my street lamps needed more creativity I mention points not as critic, but in view of accessibility for most guys that d want to get in guys that only have an apartment, and only a table. poor artists. that way, the audience is wider I m that kind, hopefully temporarely, but I think it could be the best recipe to get you started and get pop many guys are caught in a fig to the next routine, they need to break the ice, make it thin, D the plaster looks good, but a lot of work and waste I found a good trick! clear glue mixed with water, it makes a humid look and a protection pellicule, it s safe, cheap, ecological, easy, I d love to see you test it on a project. the dirt of course, for realism, it s best, but it s not what I m looking for in fig dios, because of the rubbing, on long term, the rubbing will make particles detach, it s good for train layouts, where things are static this is where we d need to improve for a wider audience too, less specialist stuff paint - foam shapes - plastic plants - green rope - and my glue 'varnish technique' gave me the result I needed, sturdy - durable surfaces, nothing rubs away, it s like plastic but more texture [foam] other surfaces are painted cardboard, no 'varnish' it gives a surface figs have grip on. because I change action weekly, [as is the logical way to use this] I need reliable texture, also, dusting. ouh, I spray painted my fan frame - support, it cost me $20 Can for a can... forget it! and the smell! oh no, it s acrylic dollar store paint from now on, I hate it. 8.15 yeah, black wash, sprayer, it s relief of the measures and cuts, stressful to waste another good spot to show Rambo dollar store plants are best here, yeah, those are cool for trains, but not here for figs, I totally pass on the podge with the glue trick, I glue my green rope, then add more, and then can add a final glue - water mix to protect the texture there has to be compromise when you do fig dios, it s specialised, unless it s just for expos not understanding this, not adapting, keep dios where they are, a small thing, niche... the fun of this thing is to SHARE, all aboard! I share my mind about the topic, and then we evolve the genre to a bigger audience - team of artists and we aim low budget - space, fig action as inspiration, like a great song. 11.30 ahh yeah! the finale! kudos on the posing bro! ha, ha, the audio final verdict it s pro bro! like for expos good, photo realistic and surely your aim here with all the high end products and techniques and it s all clear to me what I d see as revolutionary what I m thinking about in simple terms action sets not as realistic, but action elements for fun and flexibility in poses - action my green ropes act as vines which I can attach figs, as many as you want, it s tight glued there same for my balcony and electric tubing and pipes, to allow figs to grab, hence, action flexibility this is key to success in the project. what do you think? want to try? so now you know... good show bro!

Love the Diorama! Was wondering if you base coated it with paint of did you just do the Dropper botttles on the whole thing?

Is this foam toxic in any way? I mean its meant to be used for something way different :D
