Jagdtiger's Last Stand - 1/35 Diorama | Germany, March 1945

  • My friends, in this video we're going to build a simple, yet quite large, "still" diorama for this 1/35th scale Jagdtiger. Creating realistic scenery in larger scales is more challenging because bigger scale usually means more detail. So I decided to keep it simple and rather focus on the delicate aspect of things - trying to make every corner of the scenery visually busy with vegetation, groundwork, colors and textures.

    As someone just restoring his own wood doors. A little tip.
    Acrilic wood putty starts drying fast, that is the reason for most of your clumps. Spread it quickly with a flexible metallic spatula, and keep the putty in the pot covered at all times with a plastic film.
    So white putty seems finer to me, probably they use sawdust for the wood colour.

    For fixing edges on the foam/clay base;
    Try a filler PVA - glue - acrylic paint mix (like a smooth paste. You may need two or three layers but I find it works.

  • @dadtype2339
    @dadtype2339 3 года назад

    Greetings from NC USA!!! I didn't see anyone answer this if I missed it sorry, but to answer your question as the type of foam you used for this base, it's a non-static foam typically used to pack electronics for shipping as it also can be found in thin sheets. It protects electronics from static charge up or discharge which can occur from movement during shipment. Laptops, blu-ray players, or other types of computers. Which is why it was hard to apply stick grass. Not impossible just hard. Love your channel thanks!

    One thing Marten, if I may. Wood bleaches when it is exposed to the sun. Consequently, where wood is covered, you will still have a "shadow" of where one plank crosses another, like two planks nailed together. Anyway, fabulous job.
