Hey Luke I know this is out of nowhere and you dont know me but I watched your videos during a time I was depressed and your videos - they distracted me from all of my sad thoughts. Watching you build miniature scenery kept my mind quiet. Atleast for a little while, I could feel peace. It felt like my life was standing still, so calm and tranquil when I watch your videos. I'm now writing you at a time where i'm mentally healthier. I dont think you wouldve thought or expected that making these videos would help someone with depression. Thank you Luke.
That's so awesome! It makes me very happy to know that my videos have helped you in such a positive way. I hope you continue to feel better and I'm glad you still feel peace and calm watching the videos. That is very encouraging news for not only me but for you as well 😃
I am not depressed but I can relate. The videos have this soothing effect on me as well. Plus I learn a thing or two with every video which is a great bonus.
I love hearing stories like this. I can relate. Just remember to keep on making positive changes in your life. It's tough, but not impossible. I'm glad we all can share in this hobby and be mindful that it's the little things in life that truly make it worth living. Best of luck to you, mate!
Oh I relate here! This time last year I was planning my escape from a toxic relationship. Often the only thing that would keep my mind off everything were Lukes videos 🙏🏻 whenever I need to relax nowadays I always come back to these videos 😊
As always, a masterpiece. I love this one as it is simply FUN. You're building what makes you happy - i.e. where you'd want to be as a kid. Well done. Really nice to see.
ha ha thanks Merrick, yeah it's sometimes hard because there's always that expectation of what the audience wants versus what I want... sometimes they align and sometimes they don't. This was definitely a fun build, I just wish I had the time and patience to build one thousand of these tall redwood trees to make a forest! I think it would take me over a year to do that many but I'd probably go insane after 20!
I grew up n Northern California with a Large Redwood tree right outside my bedroom window (on the 3rd floor). So of course I am a complete Star Wars nerd and love treehouses as well. You did a great job making the Redwoods, they look very accurate, and the ewok village is really a treat. If you ever make it out to California, make sure to visit the Calaveras Big Trees park where you'll see Redwoods and giant Sequoias also. Not to be missed.
I watch these to fall asleep but then go back and watch them because I’m genuinely interested in seeing the process. It’s just so hard to stay awake while watching if it’s already late because it’s soooo soothing
I just have to say that I really appreciate your videos. I'm not a model maker, but I find your videos really relaxing. Kind of like a "Bob Ross" of scenic model making. I really look forward to them.
The amount of effort put into every detail, no matter how small, is in my opinion the defining quality of Luke Towan. Every model is a masterpiece and the quality is insane.
I fail to understand how anyone could give these videos a thumbs down. It is amazing to me how much thought goes into the details on your miniatures. Just stunning and so realistic.
If you have 3 big enough trees in your back yard. You and your daughter can have a father/daughter building a tree house like that. Can’t believe that this Aussie makes these look 100% Real!!! VERY COOL
There's no doubt about you Luke. You excel in 2 things...model making and entertainment. I love this model. I think most of us dreamt of having an awesome tree house in our younger years. Most enjoyable. I watch a lot of these types of videos on RUclips however, I make a cuppa and a snack when watching yours only. I love your work Luke.
They dislike because they don't and can't ever amount to much so, rather than be thankful for good entertainment, they instead try to tarnish it with a 'thumbs down'. What they fail miserably to realise is that nobody gives a toss about their negative input. We just love Luke and his model making videos.
I have been watching videos since the very beginning and I must say you continue to improve your skills with each diorama. You have inspired me to follow my grandfather's passion for model trains. This summer I am going to start it. I remember when you were so underrated and had just started your soon to be amazing youtube channel. What I me by this whole comment is that you help many people in hard times like these and are the bright light in the sky that keeps us going, moving forward in our life whether we are young or old many people appreciate your huge contributions to our world. Keep up the amazing work and stay healthy in these unusual times.
hi Luke You aree a true master of modelling keep up the inspiring work you do iam a model builder my self but no where near you. you inspire me many thanks for your tutorials may you grow from strength to strength take care. GOD bless
That was the fastest 29:06 minutes I've ever had. Time just flies when I'm watching your videos. I absolutely love this. Even more than the subway station. That's saying a lot
"I'm going to be responsible and go to bed - Wait, a new Luke Towan video? Sleep be damned! Entertainment ahoy!!!" As someone who also wanted to live in a treehouse as a child (and as an adult), this was therapeutic... :)
Always a very good day when there is a new Luke Towan video. What I craft isnt close to being that good, but I'd like to thing I learn a bit by watching a master.
Masterpiece it is. You totally did a great job.Thank you for sharing.Brings back a bit of my memory as a kid up to now I'm more than 50 but still climbing trees but it would be a dream come true if I could climb that tree you created with the WONDERFUL house in a bigger version offcourse but since not.I'll just imagine that tree house you made and I'm on top of the world.Thank you again for sharing.❤
@@BoulderCreekRailroad : I caught that just as the scene cut to the next, and it wasn't lost on me. I meant to comment, but I didn't want to tease you!😖🥴
I went and looked at the extra photos on your website and I like the photos you took from above, looking straight down. It's a really unique angle, makes it look like you're looking down from a helicopter!
Those trees are a work of art. Basically everything is. I am more a mechanic, though I've done some plastic kit modeling and built some rc stuff years ago, and always have deep respect for people who have the skills to create things.
Found this in my recommended for no apparent reason, so I just decided to watch, but I was hooked since the beginning. So much detail! That's patience! I subscribed. Please keep making videos! (but feel free to do what you want)
What a net idea and diorama! I always learn something new form your tutorials and I frequently watch older ones to learn a little more about diorama building. Thanks for making this and I always look forward to a new one from you.
I have been watching your videos since the beginning of your channel and they never cease to amaze me. You just keep getting better and better and better! Thank you for your masterful craftsmanship, your wonderful content, and all that you do. Cheers!
Hmmm, I grew up with redwood trees. More likely to find lots of Ferns on the forest floor, and Salamanders and Newts. California red belly Newt for example. Sometimes Banana slugs. At slightly higher elevation, you will find Manzanita bushes/trees with their smooth red bark.
Heya, I know you were asking Luke, not me, but in case he doesn't see/ get time to reply i thought I'd jump in :) I'm relatively new to miniatures myself, but in my opinion, the best way to jump in and start trying some beginner projects is to google/ youtube search/ (the Instructables website can be good too!) simple tutorials that allow you to use stuff you've already got around the house. It can be surprising what can be done with stuff you'd usually toss away, ie. plastic bottles; cardboard cereal boxes; spent matchsticks; old dead pens, etc...! Other household items such as tissues ( can be used with glue to make a kinda papier mache), aluminium foil, and toothpicks can hold a lot of creative potential too! Add a few bits 'n' bobs, like some inexpensive acrylic paints, and you'll be surprised what can be created :) . A nice side effect of using stuff you already have - especially when it comes to kids- is that you can avoid spending big $$$ on supplies on a hobby that they may just get bored with in a week also, lol ( I'm a parent myself, so I know they can go through phases!). But if your kiddo starts getting really into it, maybe then you can consider branching out into purchasing more specialised stuff. What I've noticed is that there are soooo many different ways of making any one thing, so there are no real rights or wrongs.Try everything! It all depends on the effect you're after, and what's practical for you. Just take an experimental approach. The first thing of anything I make for the first time is usually a bit crap tbh, lol. But it's a learning experience! Eventually I refine and improve what I'm making. I've managed to make some things that I'm quite happy with, using quite inexpensive materials that most people would just throw in the bin! It takes a bit longer making stuff from scratch, but Imagination is the only limit, really :) Best of luck! Sorry if my comment is too long ( mine always are, lol). I hope you and your son have a bunch of fun with this enchanting art form!
@@3leggedsharkkickssurferinballs Do you know what your Myers-Briggs personality type is? My comments are always too long also and it seems to be common for my type. When I was little I had no idea what a diorama was and needed to make one for school. My dad helped me. We made a scene in a large box building up the "ground" with old newspapers and paper mache or plaster of paris, and made a popsicle stick structure for our little guy who was living by the river during the gold rush here in California. I was able to help my children make their school projects when they came along because of what my dad taught me and my own interest in miniatures.
@@recoveringsoul755 I don't actually; I've never tried the test. It might be interesting to give it a go! At any rate, it's nice to know that I'm not the only one who writes long comments! I think this trait in me stems from a combination having a lot to say and an enduring passion for writing. Not everyone has a passion for reading long comments on the youtube, though, haha. But, each to their own, huh ;) Aww, that sounds like a fun memory. What a helpful Dad :) That's awesome. Miniatures are such fun for kids and adults alike. Learning how to make them is also a really nice way to spend quality time with the kidlies, I think. To be honest, I am becoming lot more obsessed with miniatures now than my kid- or any kid I know- is!
@@3leggedsharkkickssurferinballs Luke is a master. But I also like Black Magic Craft's channel, as he makes simpler builds out of scrap but look really impressive.
@@CandygramMongo Funny you mention that, I only discovered Black Magic Craft last week, and you're right- he makes some pretty impressive stuff out of pretty basic, inexpensive materials. Pretty inspiring! Oh, and yes, Luke IS a master. I aspire to his level of expertise!
After watching Luke and High Eyes videos during lockdown I've taken this up as a hobby.These lads are true craftsmen so can only hope I pick up some of the great little tips they give.
I will never build this particular diorama, but without this video and may others from Luke, my HO scale layout would not be as great, detailed, or professional as it is. Thanks man!
Ah, Matthew, Mark, Luke, there's John... LOL. I was thinking about your use of ground cover of chopped dried leaves. Why don't you give used dried tea bag leaves a go and let me know what you think? I have an old empty coffee jar already filled with the dried leaves, I have used/drank over the past month or so. I would like to see you do a small diorama using them for ground cover or something else in trying them out. Plus, I'll like to see what you can do with the bags themselves, after cutting the four sides away into flat sheets?. How is that for a little challenge for you Luke? Anyway, I love watching what you make including the homemade tools to aid your building. Cheers, John.
Bro you're about to hit the the big one mil, how are you going to top this to celebrate? Congratulations! And thank you for sharing your skills and experience with us all. Never change Luke, you're an inspiration.
Dude I STILL dream about these places, and I'm terrified of heights! Btw Luke, where do you keep all your miniatures, just in your workspace or do you keep some in another place? (You may have had said before and I missed it) Also! 4:18 Is that a mini version of Pete Nelson from Treehouse Masters?! 😂
I didn't even know Treehouse Masters was a thing... So Cool! I have shelves in my studio/garage where I keep my models, sometime when I'm running out of space I'll dismantle the older models to make new ones 😃
@@BoulderCreekRailroad Oh yeah it's a great show, you can probably find it somewhere online (dunno if it airs in Australia). He makes alot of cool treehouses in beautiful locales!
I thought I had seen the best in miniature making but this work is spectacular! My imagination soared with stories of growing up playing and sleeping in these treehouses! Enjoyed every minute.
As usual I have no words to comment on your skill and patience. I don't even try to do something like this because I would probably turn a railroad into a staircase for an old Italian moka coffee maker!
Your work is superb and inspiring. You could run a workshop all across the USA showing your technics and your experience in modeling. Thanks for sharing.
Hello luke, your video really makes me a big fan of you right now, because I often watch your videos, now I am interested in doing this, and this is now my new hobby, thanks luke I learned a lot from you and i am very happy to do my new hobby, thanks a lot luke for sharing your masterpiece works
This is by far the best dio video you have done, live in a very heavy wooded area in New England this would have been amazing to see this come to life in my backyard.
Hey Luke, I’m really like your video channel, your presentation, your camera angle, your attention detail are really make me surprise. Thank you for your great jobs.
Time to get a snack, sit back, and enjoy. I'll never make one of these, but it is so cool watching this master maker.
Johnny Vegas this guy makes me want to spend the $100-$200 just to get the materials to make a diorama
Yeah these are my late night relaxation videotape
I like to watch them while I'm in between projects😊
@@smellsbad2742 Dont forget another $1000 for the tools of the trade. Haha
Exactly that 👌

From Australia to California in seven minutes! What an amazing time to be alive!
So true! It's a small world with the internet!
Luke Towan, the Master Of Miniature just said “it’s a small world” to me!
I wish I had more than just one thumbs up 👍🏼 for that comment!
I love watching these videos. They are he gold standard among diaramas. And his accent makes me love listening too.
I watch these to fall asleep but then go back and watch them because I’m genuinely interested in seeing the process. It’s just so hard to stay awake while watching if it’s already late because it’s soooo soothing
This has it all! LOTS of detail, selfmade trees, ground with dirt and greens! One of your best so far!!
I just have to say that I really appreciate your videos. I'm not a model maker, but I find your videos really relaxing. Kind of like a "Bob Ross" of scenic model making. I really look forward to them.

At least I’m not the only one that sharpens pencils will my nose.
LOL... we're a community 🤣
At first I was like “wut” but after seeing what u guys mean made me laugh 🤣🤣🤣🤣
A little editing magic and a white pencil crayon could come out green. 😉
Luke Towan hahah keep up the good work brotha.
I saw that also and had to rewind it just to make sure I wasn't seeing anything
I fail to understand how anyone could give these videos a thumbs down. It is amazing to me how much thought goes into the details on your miniatures. Just stunning and so realistic.

Every time I watch the first few seconds of Lukes videos, I think "Oh, so that's the real environment and he wants to build it as a miniature"
lol... that's a good sign 😃 I try to make them look as realistic as I can
Yep, I got tricked with the high-rise flats. With this one, the birdsong was an extra trick - got me again.😁
My online classes can wait. These videos are just the best
lol... I'd definitely do the same 😄
Just wait. There's going to be a test after the video.😋
Still the only channel I don't watch on 2x speed, love the result once again :)

This kind of looks like an Ewok village from Star Wars
Did C-3PO and the Ewok give it away? It also reminds me of the video game MYST where they had similar structures.
They filmed the Ewok thing in the pacific north west, so that tracks
Imagine being really tall chilling near the fences than you slip, thats a big fall but a very beautiful scenery, keep up the good work!
you should collaborate with serpadesign and include a scenery into one of his paludarium ! just imagine _huge_ fish or geckos around this treehouse!!

I have shelves in my studio/garage where I keep my models, sometime when I'm running out of space I'll dismantle the older models to make new ones 😃
@@BoulderCreekRailroad Oh yeah it's a great show, you can probably find it somewhere online (dunno if it airs in Australia). He makes alot of cool treehouses in beautiful locales!
Looks real nice Luke. Always fun to watch your videos
"An extra piece of dowel is sharpened" wait wait wait. My man. Is that a nose-shaped pencil sharpener?
no, he inserted a pencil sharpener into his nose
Yeah ahh... No words can describe the amount of detail. Well done! I really thought i was looking at a picture of a actual treehouse. Great video.
Where is the WALDO!! Its driving me crazy, i cant find him.
I thought I had seen the best in miniature making but this work is spectacular! My imagination soared with stories of growing up playing and sleeping in these treehouses! Enjoyed every minute.
I didn’t actually realise trees where pointy at the top untill now
Amazingly work of art, can't stop looking at you building the dioramas

Luke: *flip bottle challenge *
As usual I have no words to comment on your skill and patience.
I don't even try to do something like this because I would probably turn a railroad into a staircase for an old Italian moka coffee maker!
Any plans to make a road construction site with traffic lights?
I'm truly in awe of your amazing talent sir. Amazing.
Whoa! I can't even count how many cool techniques there are in this video! So cool. Learnt so much. Thank you!
Oh Luke, how awesome, thank you. Yep saw Wally too......you and yours be safe
I don't usually do this but I gave this video. a like as soon as it started playing. I knew I would love it. I was right!
Your proportions are just perfect. I know those trees were miniature but they look like they could massive
they just keep getting taller and taller! nice new staple gun elle. amazing work as always queen.
Amazing work. Such a wonderful display of creativity, talent, and skill.
The best model you made ever.......Damn Luke you are truly ferry skilled
Wow! I love the creative flow of this- it’s literally bringing imagination to life.
would love a workspace tour where you show off past projects and favourite tools, it’s so interesting to see you work and love the creativity
Wow. This was certainly a labor of love. Well done
Your work is superb and inspiring. You could run a workshop all across the USA showing your technics and your experience in modeling. Thanks for sharing.
Those trees are absolutely..beautiful!!
I hope Pete Nelson at Nelson Treehouse sees this! Magnificent treehouse!
My 7 year old daughter loves your videos, she constantly asks if there are any new ones out! Tha Ks for making these videos!
Hello Luke, your models are very helpful for making models for my daughter. This tree house is awesome.. Thank you.
Hello luke, your video really makes me a big fan of you right now, because I often watch your videos, now I am interested in doing this, and this is now my new hobby, thanks luke I learned a lot from you and i am very happy to do my new hobby, thanks a lot luke for sharing your masterpiece works
This is by far the best dio video you have done, live in a very heavy wooded area in New England this would have been amazing to see this come to life in my backyard.
Hey Luke, I’m really like your video channel, your presentation, your camera angle, your attention detail are really make me surprise. Thank you for your great jobs.
This is a master class in patience for sure. Looks incredible!
In addition to talent and patience, you must also have a surgeon's precision. Looks great!
