This diorama is a little different than my usual content. I grew up in Mongolia and wanted to build something inspired by that. Mongolia is an amazing country with a beautiful culture and heritage. I’m grateful for the opportunity I had to grow up there.

Correction: Mongolia was never officially a part of the Soviet Union. They were only ever a satellite.
Thank you for your humility and willingness to correct yourself. You are the goat of the arts
you make the greatest stuff
also what do you do with all of the dioramas
That’s awesome to hear that you are also from Denver Colorado! I love your vids and keep up the great work!
Dumb question. Have looked into using fiber optic type lighting for some of those hard to reach places?
I'm over here printing rugs out on the cheapest paper I can find while you're making beautiful, handcrafted rugs out of fabric and paints.
Both are good 👍
Thanks for the story! Currently watching this on a movie theater screen to imagine you building the Ger single-handedly at 1:1 scale. That lattice tape technique was a game changer.
Hi Studson, why aren’t there any comments here? Ok bye
@@goose1168 no clue
When modellers talk about things in real life being 1:1 scale. LOL
what else would you refer to it as? full scale? real scale?
@@johncitizen5130 how about “When I built actual ger’s”
"One time i built a real ger..."
A family from Colorado moving to Mongolia for 12 years is like the most random thing I've ever heard, how come you did that? Can you speak mongolian?
probaly
If I had to guess: some religious missionary deal.
@@666wurm It was spies.
Nice job! Love all the fine detail
@@TeoMaragakis Yes Spies.
Ayy
Hello from Mongolia!
Nice to see a great diorama
Another excellent video! Thanks for... wait, you lived in Mongolia for 12 years!? You're going to have to do more than just casually mention that in passing. It deserves its own video.
Wow, beautiful! I lived in a traditional Mongolian ger EXACTLY like that one for 2 years in the Rocky Mtns. I had a small Jøtul stove that kept me warm even at -15F. What a cool experience that would have been at 6 years old. Thanks so much for the story and the nostalgia.
A very interesting change of pace, and a fascinating memento of what must have been an extraordinary period of your life.
This is truly outstanding, perhaps because it flowed from the heart, and also because it had a tangible feel of reality about it that Star Wars subjects do not. I am possibly the definitive Star Wars/Star Trek geek, but of all the models I have, I swear the one that speaks to me the most is of a London bus. This diorama has that same feel about it to me - wonderful work!
This is...stunning. The connection you have with this diorama, coupled with the amazingly realistic detail made it an emotional thing for me to watch. Thank you for this beautiful and personal piece of art!
For the past year, I have been learning and practicing Mongolian throat singing. Through that time I have also learned a lot about the Mongolian people and their history. It's incredible how little we learn about these ancient nomads. I love it when people make videos shedding light on these ancient traditions. Absolutely love your work!
Please listen to The HU
@@K_I_A_R_T422 My friend, I listen to them every week 😎 My favourite is Sugaan Essena! I’m a sucker for anything Star Wars, so the fact they made a canon throat singing song for Star Wars is purely incredible.
@@daldanus but have ya been at one of their concerts
@@K_I_A_R_T422 Sadly I haven’t had the fortune to afford it while they were in Norway. But next year they will be playing here along with Sabaton and I’m saving up for tickets.
@@daldanus I went to see the hu on September 17.
At first I thought you were kidding with the title. This is really cool to know.
Thank you so much for sharing that with us! That was incredible. I felt such a sense of nostalgia at the end of the video, and I've never even been to Mongolia. You knocked it out of the park with this one brother, keep up the fantastic work!
This is honestly one of the most beautiful videos I've ever watched. please never stop creating, it always makes my day to see what you've made!
Daaaaaaaaaaang, you made the ger completely by hand! And the detail work on the furnishings!
That van is sweet. Another great build, and I learned things too. What a time to be alive!
This is amazing!
I loved all the little memories and tidbits about Mongolia that you shared, i have definitely learnt something new today.
What a wonderful little diorama full of ❤️
Again amazing work, that story you told while you built sounded like an amazing experience, thanks for sharing it with me.
The Buhanka van is a perfect addition
This is such a nice diorama. Its different from your normal stuff but I really like it.
This is wicked...I love when a model becomes a telling of a personal story. I wish I had one from Alaska..but I was way too young. Its also really nice to see a change of style, trying something out of the norm. I can see the skills you learned in SW translated to here; metal dry brushing, environment and a new one like the detail pen the furniture! I love that idea.
Always good and wise to remember your past... 👍
As a personal touch you could put youre old license plate on the van. Very awesome build and story
I've deeply enjoyed all your videos so far and this is no exeption, the fact that this project bears a special meaning and brings back memories just adds to it in a special way. Thanks for sharing!
This is so cool on so many levels: 1) I love the fact that you were in Mongolia as a child (missionary family?), 2) I love modeling and dioramas, 3) I love 4wd vans!
Really cool man! My brother was part of the Peace Corps in Mongolia!
That was awesome! Thank you for sharing a bit of your childhood experience through a diorama.
This is truly one for the books!! I can't believe all the wonderful furnishings and rugs that you took the time to recreate so that everyone could see what life was like for those that lived this way. The detail and weathering are spot on! You, Sir are a true genius!! Thank you so much for your inspiration and for your art.
I think this is my favourite build. 🥰 It was so interesting listening to your story as I watched you building. Thank you very much for sharing. 😇
This made me miss Mongolia very much. I lived there for a little while before I came out, and now am scared to go back and having to come out to all my friends there, but this just brought all the good memories flooding back
does anyone actually realize that this guy is so talented and brilliant?!?
I miss the smell of the Mongolian tugrik. The paper dollars in the USA lack that mutton, sweat and coal smoke scent that was always alluring in my childhood. Good video, really enjoyed it.
🤣🤣🤣
Wow, I like when RUclipsrs make a video that talks about there life. Makes it feel like there more human.
You're totally right, this is a nice change of pace with something most of us have zero contact with even today with global internet, very interesting!
Something about watching the detail that went into this diorama and the voice talking about the memories that went into it brought back memories I never had of places I've never been, seeing people I've never met doing things I've never done.
That just looks wonderful. A nice little tribute to your time there…
You are so incredibly skilled. Thank you for sharing this.
man that rug really ties the ger together
Excellent
I visited Upper Mongolia in 1987. We had Yak Butter Tea and Millet in one of those homes.
Awesome build, the Ger and the Van. The Ger looks wonderful with all the little Details and the furniture.
The country life of Mongolia has always fascinated me. Seems like such a peaceful life. Thank you for the video!
Amazing work as usual. The detail is spot on. Thank you for sharing some of your personal stories.
Man Caleb this was a great video, one of my favorites yet. Besides the diorama looking completely amazing it was really nice that you shared these personal childhood memories with us. And I learned stuff! The canvas that's wrapping the Ger looks very convincing and very authentic. And what can I say about how you made that lattice work, wow! Love when you drop something different like this, it was a real treat.
3:32 Says let's move to the other half of this diorama while cutting the piece of wood in half. Thought that was nice. Awesome piece!
I came for the Star Wars builds, but this was your best build so far, along with the one you did for your brother. Thanks so much for sharing a part of your life with us.
Awesome! - A model with a 'REAL' story behind it for a change! 👍👍👍
Wow, you went from Denver to Mongolia and back. That's hella cool.
Great diorama, but man, super cool story. I love that you were able to just make that ger and all the furnishing by hand, including painting all the furniture and rugs, very impressive work.
thats one of your greatest buids..and yes, special personal experiences make good artist ;) I . also like the design, half of the Ger directly to the front of the visitor and the car in the back...more of that.
I really enjoyed this because my friend's dad is a Kalmyk. I'm sharing this with him. Nice job!
Wow, that build really took it to a whole other level. A great story from your childhood.
I had the pleasure of visiting Mongolia after I graduated high school. I sincerely miss it almost weekly, and I only spent about a month there. It's been over 20 years, but I hope to go back sometime before I die. Thanks for your videos!!!
Th music at the end is what I listen to most nights to relax. Morin Khuur and throat singing.😊
Very beautiful diorama, and lovely story behind it. Thank you for sharing.
That was awesome I enjoyed the story time learning about where you grew up I love learning about how and where people grew up also love your videos and watch them every night before I go to bed.
Look forward to these every Sunday morning. Excellent work, as always! The memories you shared as the build progressed made it even better.
That was fascinating and informative. The way you made the Ger wall was rather cunning.
My family has also been to Mongolia and I quite miss it as well
Fellow Mongol here, I've been watching your videos last few days and until now didn't know you were Mongolian. Keep up the good work!
Another great and entertaining build!
It felt like I was watching and listening to a documentary! Thank you for the slight peak into your past.
Wow. What a cool diorama. Learned a lot from your commentary! I could feel the emotion and how much this meant to you. I'd be very curious to find out more about your time living in Mongolia. Also, what took you and your family there and what brought you back? Might be too personal of questions and that's totally fine if you dont want to answer.
Regardless, keep up the good work! Love your channel!
The diorama is great but the memories of your childhood and the stories about Mongolia were the best. Well done!!
Amazing build and great story to go along with it! Must have been tough coming from the States to live off the land like that! Thanks again for sharing your memories!
This is great! I love those vans. What an excellent memory to model!
Етить, буханка с кибиткой, I once had a chance to spend a night in a yurt in an early Russian spring, it was comfy, and the car like this one brought me to the aid station when I broke my arm in the countryside, I was 4-5 years old at the time. Thank you for the memories)
Just found you channel great work you do here and i give u my greetings from mongolia 🇲🇳🇲🇳🇲🇳
I'd love to see a livestream of your workspace while you're working on a project. It'd be a great way to interact with you and ask questions.
Beautiful and touching video.
Felt like a short trip to Mongolia. Thank you very much!
This was incredible! Thank you so much we loved this.:)
Loved the way that you showed all of us a little about your life experience. It sounds like you had some wonderful times. As always, beautiful work.
What a beautiful heart. Thank you for sharing your home. It is beautiful.
So coincidental in ways!
When I was seven my family moved to South America and we lived there for ten years. Our first vehicle?? A diesel WV van.
Guessing it was for the same reason as your family.
I've been going back through your videos, and though you've created consistently exceptional dioramas and models, there's something extra special about this one - I think it might be my favourite. And that's a tough call with everything else you've created.
i can imagine this in a museum
Oh wow! What an amazing childhood. You're so lucky to have these memories.
That is amazing. Watching you recreate a memory of yours. And seeing the little detail you put into it 🥺😱 And using things that didn't come with the kit is brilliant. I've never would've thought of making a lattice that way you did
Fun fact: in Russian these vans are colloquially called Bread Loaf (because of similar body shape).
Thats an awesome personal build. That lattice method was eye opening. Always love your intricate details also.
Beautiful! You make it all look so simple but I know this is some serious skills. Thank you for sharing.
Amazing work! Seeing you scratch build anything is such a treat, and I pick up tips and tricks every time. You are quickly becoming one of my favorite creators!
I have a similar story. my family and I moved to Africa for 6 years. we lived in many places but the best place was living in Kenya. thanks for the awesome video! have a wonderful day.
The way you built that structure was great! Thanks for sharing part of your story!
Greetings from Mongolia.
Thanks for sharing that. I think its a pice of your history that i can see in you wild west art. Wich i love by the way. That was heart
Thank you for this, I’ve been interested in Mongolian music and culture for a while now, since JFO introduced us to the HU band 😁
Honestly, this is one of my favorite build of yours! Well done! Thank you for sharing your story with us. It made the build so much more meaningful.
That would be an extreme cultural shock, Colorado to Mongolia.
I so enjoyed this build. This had such a personal, meaningful vibe, it was a joy to watch.
Oh man amazing video! But we are both from Denver! Super suprised when I heard that! Proud to call Colorado home!
What a great build! Would love to see more of this type!
It’s so cool you grew up in Mongolian your one of my favorite RUclipsrs And I am Mongolian I really love that you from mongolia because Not that much people know about it I just wanna say I love your channel bye😊
Great project and what a wonderful experience! 👍🏻
Amazing diorama .The details inside the yurt are incredible .Congratulations for your work .
Cant get enough of watching you making them. You are a real artist
As a car enthusiast, your story makes that Soviet van even more beautiful.
I suspect the orange paint is made of an Ochre pigment, in which case it probably serves help preserve the wood from rot and damp.
Nice one! Something completely different this time, but again a beautiful scenery ! And the Buchanka rocks!! A friend had one. Thirsty as hell, but easy to maintain and off-road a blast.
Amazing. Love seeing you do something a bit different! Looks incredible as always 👍
Very impressive work! You have a lot of talent. Must have been living in that Ger
