The making of No. 28 "Diorama of Moonlight" 

1:20 "Please take your time and watch the first vid" Already done, King

Take as leisurely a pace as you want, it's absolutely worth the wait. Thank you for another wonderful piece! The mother's design is just out of this world!

It took me FOREVER to realize that the pronunciation of "thalasso hobbyer" and "thalassophobia" was basically the same in Japanese. Your work is absolutely gorgeous, like three dimensional paintings that tell whole stories. Take all the time you need -- perfection like this can't be rushed.

those small leaves for the flowers... this is pure dedication, oh and i just love that everything is done by hand and not just 3d printed

I've tried to watch so many other diorama creators since I began watching your videos, but every single one of them feels wrong. They use expensive 3D printers for every single piece and then just paint them and throw them together. I'm not saying that there's anything wrong with that, they can make fun interesting things... But they'll never have what you do. There's no love in their work, and this stunning diorama just proves that to me. To spend 8 months on a project takes dedication that a lot of others just don't have, and love. You love your work, your art, and your viewers and it shines through in every single piece and video you create.

It’s such a shame that the Ytb algorithm doesn’t intend to promote your channel more bc you’re so criminally underrated & should deserve more views on your videos for your hard work on such magnificent projects…. That said, it was a pleasure to watch your " behind the scenes " vid & I really can’t wait to see your next diorama to unfold ^^

The detail that you put into every single part of a larger piece is incredible to me, and hearing that it only took you eight months is baffling in the best way. You're so talented in your work on massive pieces like this one that I wouldn't be surprised if it had taken you longer to complete. You're my favorite diorama maker on youtube, none of the others that I have watched can hold my interest for long before I return to your videos. Edit: The process you have for shaping your larger trees is my absolute favorite part of your videos! I love watching how they go from bundles of wire to a silver leafless tree with just certain twists of smaller and smaller clusters of wire. It makes me want to get a lot of wire and start making trees left and right😂

どちらかというと不愛想、無機質な表情の能面からにじみ出る愛情、哀情をこれほどまでに感じたのは初めてでした。 素晴らしい作品をありがとうございました。

I LOVE watching the amount of love and care you put into your dioramas. Even without seeing your face I can always tell how much passion and care you put into your art. I'm more than happy to wait for your videos ❤

My, I was shocked when you mentioned that you spent 8 months finishing this artwork... How glad I feel to have the chance to admire your masterpiece.

Love to see the behind the scenes and how in-depth you go!

Take as long as you want your craftsmanship is beautiful. I love the old lores you make and hope to see more lores even if you're gone a year.

制作動画、ありがとうございました。 至るところにタラソフォビア様の拘りがあって、この美しい作品が出来上がった事が良く分かる動画でした。 始めは「粘土」だったものが、骨を纏い、皮膚の凹凸や陰影が母親を生み出して、髪の表情で儚さを醸し出していて(私の個人的な見解ですが)、最終的に「彼女」になった姿に感嘆してしまいます。 森の地面の少し湿った土の匂いや生い茂った木々の葉の匂い、苔むした岩のくすんだ匂い、清らかな水の清々しい匂いや瑞々しい睡蓮の甘やかな匂いがしてきそうだと思いました。 下からのライトアップの作品も素敵だと思います。 上からのライトアップだと彼女の儚さが強調され、下からのライトアップだと孤独感が強調された様な気がしました。 私も個人的な趣味で石粉粘土を使ってミニチュアの和菓子を作っていますが、いつも色が上手くいかず、何度も作り直します。タラソフォビア様は一度に色を作られるので、本当に尊敬します。 これからもお身体に気を付けて頑張って下さい。

I just want to say, thank you for showing this to us! I can always appreciate a good story but seeing how everything came to be fascinates me more. It's always great seeing talented people share how their masterpieces are made. It inspires me as well ❤

I really enjoyed the story driven narrative you did for your Diorama of Moonlight video, so it's really nice to get this additional one that gets to showcases all the hard work that went into it, too! It really makes me want to try my hand at creating even small things. I'll definitely be keeping an eye out for your book, as well! Thanks for all your hard work.

i have no problem imagining your dioramas in the lobbies of businesses, or the offices of executives, or in art galleries.

Two thoughts I had while watching: 1. You elicit such a wealth of emotion from your subtle detailing and colors. 2. The care and attention to detail you put into each diaroma is so impressive - but you complain about your production pace. Sigh. Your art takes time. There seems to be a fair number of subscribers who agree it's well worth the wait.

If you waited an extra month to upload, it would've been 9 months, the same amount of time as a mother carries her child in the womb 🥹

Congratulations on finishing your manuscript! I know it doesn't work with the algorithm, so I understand why things are the way they are, but I wish more creators could take so much time with their work. The quality of your dioramas is so good-- not only visually, but the emotion and story as well. I appreciate your perfectionism. The color of the moss, the sticks on the banks of the spring, placing every individual dried flower along the branches of the trees. And I love that you're proving you don't need expensive tools or equipment to make genuinely stunning and moving art.

You bringing out a book? Now I know what I want for my birthday ❤ Both videos are so beautiful. The first version with the scales was very nice, too. But the final design you chose fit definitely better. No matter how long you need to make one of your beautiful works. One can feel the love and passion you put into them. Therefore, the wait is more than deserved.

YES YES YES!! WE WILL ALWAYS BE WAITING FOR YOU!!

Any video is always well worth the wait. I would wait a year to view one of your videos and because of the astounding detail and care you put in, it is always worth the time. Your subscribers know that you are taking whatever time it takes to make your creations perfect. We appreciate all of your hard work and dedication.

You are one of 2 diorama artists I follow closely. I don't mind waiting because your work is worth it! This diorama moved me, beautiful and heartfelt.

i cannot say how much raw talent you have, and it is all worth the wait!!

Random thought but I've always liked your music choice in your videos. Looking forward to your book!

I always thought the choice of this Noh mask for the Mother was genius. Between the smile and sadness, I loved the way it makes you wonder and imagine.

本編の時点で地面の質感や、木々の生い茂る様子から気の遠くなる作業をされていると思っておりましたが…8ヶ月！！想像以上でした！ だからこそ魂の籠った作品となるのですね。”母”の笑みとも泣き顔とも見える表情、本当に好きです。作業工程を観る事が好きなので、本編含め素晴らしい動画をありがとうございます。

妥協せず丁寧に丁寧にすべて愛おしむよう作りこんでいくので完成した作品に魂がこもるんだろうな…作業中どんなに怖い見た目の生き物もなでなでされてるの見ると可愛い気がしてくるの不思議

30:30 that's why you're one of the best! That detail and dedication is why your dioramas are truly a masterpiece! Great Video!

As happy as I was to know the story in the last video, I was a little sad that we didn't get the making, and it was delivered soon after. Best of both worlds I guess? 🙂

制作の裏話や出来上がるまでの過程がじっくり見られて嬉しいです！！ 今回の作品もストーリー含めとても素敵で、いつもアップロードの日を楽しみにしています🥰

This piece is so gorgeous! I'm delighted to get to find out more details of the creative process of how you brought it to life!

あなたのストーリー、作成風景とても好きなので、2本の動画でそれぞれじっくり見ることができてとてもありがたいです。

I love seeing long form videos like these with just the craft, maybe accompanied by music. It is relaxing and informative like a Mr. Rogers episode. Texturing and painting are my favorite segments to watch.

Очікування Ваших відео варте того. Дуже атмосферні історії та діорами, дякую Вам за цю красу

神は細部に宿ると言いますが、まさにこういうことですね。いくらでも待ちますので、これからも変わらない素晴らしい作品を作ってほしいです。

Yay! Behind the scenes, I love seeing how much effort, care and the amount of details you put in everything, no matter how big or small it is!! I am so looking forward to the next video! Be sure to drink some water and rest well!

連続で見れることがこの上ない幸せ

見せていただいてありがとうございます。 美しい世界が出来上がっていくのを見られるのが本当に嬉しいです。美しいものには時間も含まれているのでしょうね。 この作品の静寂となんとも言いようがない「母」の表情がとても好きです。

I thought the mother’s design was eerie and yet so hauntingly beautiful. The story heart wrenching

母の表情が角度や光の当たり方で様々な感情をかんじられて本当に好きです。そして見上げるような角度の祠にも。 ジオラマ作成のノウハウも沢山詰まっていながら、圧倒的な緻密さの作業量が唯一無二ですね…！

睡蓮の造形が繊細で、その場面は息止めて見てしまってました。ライトの当て方で表情が変わるのも素敵でした✨

And honestly, take as long as you need! Thank you so much for sharing your art! You're amazing! Even if you don't upload for months on end, I'm happy as long you're happy and enjoying your craft! Nothing worse than someone losing interest in something they once loved

前回の祠が話す内容が切なくて 堪らなくて 今回の制作がとても繊細で長期間で 貴方の紡ぎ出す作品を観るのが 私の日々の楽しみです

This "making of" video was an unexpected surprise! The sounds of carving the foam and removing the sides after the resin has cured are still so satisfying. I really appreciate all the effort you put into this project. Take care!

The attention and affection for the small details warms my heart. Thank you for sharing your thoughts and the creation process. What you do are always masterpieces. We miss you during the months you're working in your projects but it's really okay. It's all worth in the end kkkkk Hugs from Brazil! 😊

素晴らしい作品を作る人はRU-vidにもたくさんいますが、この方の作品は品位の高さで群を抜いています。

the amount of care you put into these is worth the wait

This is the way to go with all your projects from now on…the story of the diorama first…and then a couple of weeks later…the more detailed…this is how it was made. Fascinated by the processes and techniques you use. Thoroughly enjoyed both videos. As always I’m in awe of your talent, patience and creativity. Excellent stuff 🤩👏🍾🙌🎉

Okay, as someone who’s learning how to Sculpt and make Dioramas, this is quite interesting. I’m learning a lot, so thank you. And I’m definitely keeping an eye on your Book!

Breathtaking! All the soft, muted colors and beautifully melancholy!

よく3Dプリンターで製作するジオラマは見かけますが、やっぱり改めて全てを手作業で作成するあなたが大好きです❤️

I think this is my favorite diorama of yours to date. The additional explanation of how "Diorama of Moonlight" was made, as well as the story behind it, are incredibly moving. I don't mind if you take so much time between videos, as the wait is always worthwhile. And I'm very excited for your book, congratulations on getting it published!

The amount of time an artist takes to create a piece is always the correct amount! :D

A light coming from the stone lantern would add dramatic effect. But what an amazing piece. Thanks for sharing your hard work.

Listen, Thalasso, sometimes the vision changes halfway through a build. There's nothing wrong with that! You're a craftsman that takes great pride and care when creating, so it only makes sense that your builds take awhile. Honestly the speed at which you upload is impressive to me. Thank you for the detailed behind the scenes footage!

i wish i can send a super thanks, but this year is a rough one for me and my family. i always enjoyed your videos, ever since i found your channel, there's only one word for all your works, "beautiful". dear sir, don't ever feel u spent your time leisurely, because in this video you even redo all the dioramas, making trees that took 1-2 days for just 1 tree, that is "dedication". i for sure will never can do what you do, that makes you an artisan, a professional art maker in my eye. thank you for sharing your work ❤

どこを切り取っても美しく繊細で瞬きをするのを忘れて見入っていました。 これからも納得のいくまで作品を愛してください。 私達はいつまでも待ってます。 そして本の出版とても楽しみにしております。 なにとぞお身体にお気をつけ下さい。 素敵な作品をお見せいただきありがとうございました。

Thank you very much for all of your hard work! I love the amount of detail and care you put into every art piece. I haven't seen another crafts-person who uses resin as expertly as you do. I hope you get some rest and I'm excited to see your book!

Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful art with us. I love all of the pieces you've made, and the stories that come with them. Please take your time while making these, it is worth the wait to see something that you've put so much love and care into!

IM OBSESSED with the "mother´s" face. Your work is truly a joy.

My man loved this making of video now we understand the time you took and why you took it's not leisurely is more about a perfection way to make a great diorama you can take all your time doing this amazing work

When I was a kid, there was a place where we went to swim, it was a former copper mine, the water was that same colour. Magnificent.

I'm so grateful we get to see the full making of! I love watching you work

You are such a gifted artist! I utterly enjoy your videos and they are well worth the wait. I rarely comment but was compelled to do so.

I found your channel a few days ago and I am so happy that I did. Your art is simply stunning. Your attention to detail, the fact that you make everything by hand, the length of time it takes to create a project...you can feel the love in your art. You have infinite talent and patience. I was moved to tears when I watched the first video of this project. Art has never done that to me and I instantly subscribed. You are truly a master of your craft.

動画の内容は勿論選曲も毎回素敵ですね。特に今回の曲はお気に入りです。

I like how you patted the mother’s head when leaving her to dry in resin Very cute

I'm glad to see that I'm not the only one crazy enough to glue individual leaves to trees and vines. :)

I am never not amazed with what you create. I'll happily watch a three hour video of you just doing your thing.

I come from the first video. I haven't been in a good place for months now but I was so emotionally blocked I couldn't even cry and your video brought me to tears. After months, I cried. Thank you for this, your work is beautiful.

Stunning! The amazing amount of work and the patience you have is incredible. I do not have the patience for all the delicate work you do. Well worth the wait.

The idea of ​​using crumpled aluminum for an old stone effect on the small sanctuary is simple but looks really good.

38:27 Moving around the light source to imitate the trees swaying adds a really nice touch to the liveliness of the diorama. The lighting below the water accentuates the ripple effects and the lily pads. If this set was missing a prop, I would suggest a pair of slippers at the edge of the spring, in order to allude more to the human presence that was once there.

I like this set up of one video being the story (if it has one) and then the background and more in depth building as a second video. Hope you try this set up more often!

one of the best diorama artists I've seen, everything yo do is next level

The amount of detail in your work is what makes everything perfect. You truly inspire people!!! ❤

Incredibly beautiful art.

Thank you so much for putting out this second video! I really love your work, you are a true artist!

連投助かります😭︎💕︎ 細かな作業の手腕はもちろん、編集もすごく見やすい。そしてそしてやっぱり世界観とかストーリー大好き。書籍絶対買います！！

Yours are the most peaceful videos on RU-vid. The music, the pacing. The artistry is fascinating and beautiful. The subtle humour, and your humility and appreciation make these videos a thoroughly heart warming experience.

Absolutely astonishing. The amount of detail and patience you have given to this project. It’s gorgeous and realistic. The story is wonderful also.

Wow that’s so brilliant😃 I love it. And I hope more of your videos are coming because they are so awesome and I love them even the sea monster ones. Anyways well done on that video and keep up the great work because guess what you rock 😁🪨👍.

One day, i'm gonna use this video to my son as "Dedication" example.

You're back! This must be true masterpiece because the amount of time you put into❤

Can't wait for the next project

こうやって作られていたのか…道具の使い方だったり発想がもう凄いです...そしてめっちゃ繊細!動画ありがとうございます!

もう何回見てもため息が出てしまいます。幻想的な神秘的な母の慈愛に満ちた素晴らしい作品ですね。

I recently remembered your channel and I was happy to see you posted again! Please post whenever you are ready, it is always worth the wait.

The first video was really good i liked the story 😊

時間を忘れて見入ってしまいました✨ 次作も全裸待機でお待ちしております！

So much beauty, love, and tragedy in this piece, it's wonderful.

I wasn't sure how many parts of this were "real" (in the "actual dried flowers" sense) because your blending and creation makes it so hard to tell. Possibly another layer to this could be using a UV stabilizer in the top coat? Such as used in art restoration. I love the look on the mother mask. It felt in the first video like the deepest yearning, and knowing it was meant to be both crying and smiling, that tracks, because she wants her child back, but knowing he's safe, but he's lost to her forever... that deep pain is so visible.

I absolutely adore how there is such an air of melancholic beauty to your pieces. Always worth the wait

i love to see you working! thank you for your hard work. pls take some rest

Thank YOU for letting us tag along. As always, beautiful ❤️

I absolutely love your work and watching your creative process is always so inspiring. I have said this before and I'll say it everytime, take all the time that you need. You don't need to push yourself to get content out faster or anything like that, I actually really love that you don't rush your work and give yourself plenty of time to perfect your beautiful craft. It makes your pieces and videos feel even more special than they already are! In the meantime between one piece and another, I'll always come back and rewatch your previous videos. I can never get tired of them! Thank you so much for sharing your amazing work with us, and I hope you'll continue to do so at your own pace without worry!

Amazing work!! Congratulations !!

There is something so soothing about watching your videos. Maybe it is the intricate details you put in or maybe it is how you make everything by hand paired with soft music, but it makes your videos great in my opinion. I honestly don’t mind your leisurely pace because whenever you upload it is a goid surprise.

I always love your approach with work…patient and not afraid to start over…your idea starts of as a story and all the other steps comes out naturally…i don’t mind the gaps of your videos I’m just happy you are still sharing us your work. That book sounds and looks great…i hope it has some of your techniques to share…
