the art of diorama building

“der Angriff!”

This is an experiment I've been wanting to try for a while, making an explosion with an LED bulb and cotton wool. I'm not as happy with it as I'd hoped, but it works, so I'll go with that. Who knew fluffing up and spraying cotton wool [...]

My 2020 in review

Hi all, happy New Year! Just a quick one on what 2020 brought for me. I seriously lacked modeling time 🙁 but did manage to finish three models this year: Aco dei Fileni, Lybia (scratch) This must have been the longest build I ever [...]

USS Olympia 1/232

The old Revell kit got a major upgrade with the Encore photo etch details. I made custom metal barrels and metal masts. The deck is custom designed, printed on a laser printer, and colored with diluted oil paint. Some minor scratch [...]

Junk Yard Details

Been testing out more weathering techniques in combination with diorama placements. Trying to make smaller diorama compositions but still trying to maintain, an overall cohesive look. Will be grinding the threads of the tyres to add more [...]

Dhis is my new, just finished miniatur landscape with running water. Almost completely scratch build. Trees are bought. Approximate HO scale. Hope you like it 🙂 (link)

Picture Frame Diorama – Loading Bay

First things, first. I'd like to thank Andreas Rousounelis for inspiring me with his many awesome Picture frame dioramas. He is a master with these kinds of dioramas. Giving this is my first try, I decided to go with another loading bay [...]

1960s Retro-futuristic Moonbase

I found a really cool lunchbox on ebay a few months ago and decided to take it a little further by making a little moonbase diorama inside of it. I had one of these as a kid and was really happy to have found it. The Landers, Rovers, Space [...]

Sherman

I made this a while ago put forgot to post it. Since I only had wood at the time, it was used for the base and the details. Both the Sherman and Anti tank gun are from Tamiya.
