My friends, sometimes a diorama is used to tell a story. Other times it helps to add context to our model, and display it in a more attractive, and natural, way. If you add a bunch of decently painted figures, the finished miniature can look like a small slice of real life!

"MAH FRENS!" = start of a great weekend. Would love to see you do a base like that with a nice stain, then a high gloss varnish. Make the base look like a piece of furniture.
@NightShiftScaleModels
@NightShiftScaleModels Год назад
I considered this idea a few times, but so far I've always done some kind of blunder on the veneer - be it a scratch, stain from a permanent marker, etc. A high gloss finish gives it a more noble look, and I like it a lot, but personally, I kinda feel it draws the attention away a little from the scene. Similar to how an overly decorated picture frame distracts you from the main event - the painting itself. But hey, those are all just personal preferences! :)

Seeing uncle Nightshift dry-brush his diorama and explaining why and how just feels so good. It's one of the very first techniques I learned for painting basses and terrain for dnd and wargames, but hearing him talk about it makes it feel less like a "beginners cheat" and more like a valid modeling technique. Thanks Uncle, loving your content recently!

One hint - if you dont know already: The Styrocut (i think you have one besides the Proxxon - the Proxxon might have this feature as well) has a little brass inlay around the hot wire inserted in the worktop. It can be pushed upwards and be used as a guide. Turn your cardboard-styrofoam with the cardboard down and glide along the brass inlay - you will get much smoother cuts.

@@peterjozsef448 It's definitely something where every time I see it, even if it's a super impressive job, it still just feels like it ends up detracting from the model itself to me. The fire effects always just end up taking me out of the detail and painting of the model itself, because it seems like it's near impossible to make a static fireball/smoke look good.

@csongorszegedi-csinady8231 Год назад
Such a beauty. I believe, this model didn't require a delicate scene, since it's not the harmony and blending with the environment which is important in this case, but the excellent engineering, the colossal dimensions and tiny details of the vehicle, and a deatiled scene would draw the attention of the spectator. One thing I would have added, is some dirt grains and sand on the ladders which would get knocked off the crews boots while they were climbing them, but it's such an insignificant detail, that it's not even worth considering. Other than that, it's sheer perfection. Although most of them were rather impractical, there is something about the gigantic warmachines of the Third Reich which I simply adore, and this model captures it perfectly.

An oval is an ellipse without a precise mathematical defenition. A lozenge is a straight sided shape with two obtuse and two acute angles. A rectangular shape with semi-circular ends, such as the base in this video, is called a STADIUM.

@@NightShiftScaleModels I think it's a specialisation issue rather than a language issue, a great many native english speakers don't know these terms either. Unless someone has an interest in geometry they just aren't going to know the technical terms and I'm sure a lot of geometricians would be equally confused by some of the specialist terms we use as scale modellers. 🤔

Excellent work. I’ve said this before but, especially with you last few comments about artistic freedom, you should DEFINITELY look into gunpla. Especially any of the grunt suits like the Zaku or Leo. The Zaku has definitive WWII Axis vibes and are a perfect slate for complete artistic freedom. You’re not constrained to “this vehicle was only in X location, once during Y year.” It can be anything you want, from any time you want and can be painted in any way you see fit. If there’s any person I’d love to see paint a gunpla… it’s muh Uncle Night Shift.

Try this: By having the cardboard/template side of the foam base nearer to either end of the hot wire, you can reduce the amount of deflection when cutting, which should leave nicer more consistent edges. You can see in the video how much the wire bends above the cut. By symmetry it's moving as much inside the cut.

Sometimes a diorama doesn't need to tell a story, just be an adjective to it. Something as simple as the addition of the two shovels in the foreground to provide perspective, using something we've all likely had in our hands, to demonstrate the grandness of this beast. Hopefully I speak for most of us... In regards to your "time for a change" video, you do you, we'll be here to follow along. You & SpruesNBrews are two of my favorite youtube modelers, and have been a great inspiration for getting back into the hobby after 20 years of life flying by... keep up the awesome work!

I think this turned out great, it has life to it, that you can never get from an old black and white photo, without going over the top and feeling fake. A bigger base may be cooler in most cases, but I think it works here, for simply getting the point across. I also like that it's tall, I don't know if the greater visibility from that height was intentional, but it works. It's like a good solid chunk of Earth cut out, instead of looking like a piece of cardboard with dirt and paintbrush hairs glued to it. This makes me want to build a tank, or maybe a train that came off the tracks decades ago and has been left to sink further and further into the mud.

It’s more interesting when you work on something more small. This week I watched your old playlist doing the Rutscher. Seeing you deal with the shortcomings of that kit, doing an interesting paint job (👍👍👍), chipping and some sweet weathering and dust effects, I think that’s really interesting. When you did the1/48 KV-2 I really liked that too. Also I don’t think that every model needs a scenic base and figures.
