+Luke Towan Luke, do you need any diy model material ?like tree leaves ,model people and grass. pls contact me , thanks.by the way, i like your video. :)
I used to love making dioramas for school projects, but moved on to model kits later in life. Now that I'm older, I've kinda renewed my interest in making dioramas and your series has one of the best that I've seen. Keep it up, I can't wait to see more and thanks for reviving an old man's love for dioramas.
Thanks Luke. I don't have any rubber but I have some off brand PVA. I brushed on a coat a day for about four days until all the wires, 2 or more, were covered. Then a light coating of slate gray with the odd dab of black and i have an old dead tree.
As a boy I have spent a lot of time on amateuristic efforts to create tree trunks as seen in this video, with poor results - far from being realistic . This tutorial is so thrilling that I have already started creating my own Bonsai trees with this easy technique ! So easy compared to my early efforts. Thanks for the video.
I am glad RU-vid brought your videos in my feed! I spent hours staring at the models in the museum as a kid and wondered how these were made... am now am addicted to your videos. Many thanks mate!
I love this guide! Tried making a couple of small trees, well, bushes really, and it was SO easy following your step by step. I already had some foilage left over from making a couple of cherry trees so I used those instead of either turf, fruit or leaves but I'm gonna try my hand on a few more next week!
i used to watch each and every craft videos ..sometimes they r easy to make but i wont get much satisfied .But this video..haa no wordz ..u r awesome.and ur crafts are mrvlous..hope u will bring much more videos
After many years in the business of building model railroads we have put together several thousands of wire wound trees. I would offer a couple of suggestions to speed up the process. 1. Buy multi- stranded wire (without insulation). 2. Dip the trees, instead of spray painting them. (Spraying just puts a lot of paint into the air) 3. Woodland Scenics has worked great, but use the foliage material and stretch it over the branches. - no glue required.
Hi, I discovered your RU-vid page and I think your creations are incredible. It's crazy to think that with a few things you can have a big result! I am writing to you that I would like to know how you got to this point. I am currently a security guard and would like to change jobs. I would like to become a model maker (create 3D scale models as a freelancer). My question is: What studies should be done to get there? Thank you for your response and good luck! A loyal admirer
I was wondering a mat varnish to seal the tree at the end. Tried this and the flock seemed to condense tremendously. What would you use to seal the tree in the end?
Hello, I have a question about material properties. Would wire like this be able to hold plaster of paris instead of latex rubber? Thanks for your tutorials, they're a huge help.
