Thank you Mandy, best brick tutorial Ive seen and will definitely do this! Your work is very diversified as you can sculpt, paint, build and make all manner of things and you make all your tutorials look achievable for us wanting to learn! ❤
You're so very welcome Gay! I am sure you'll be very happy with the results when you make your walls, it's such a rewarding process watching it come together. 😘
I've learned more in the last hour about dioramas surfing through your videos than I learned in the classes I took! Excellent, relaxed, thoroughly enjoyed all of them!
Thank you so much for this vid you make things look so easy this was very timely for me as I'm about to embark on my first diorama build which is going to be an industrial warehouse type of building. Thanks so much!
I think an industrial warehouse style building is an excellent choice for a first diorama, you're going to learn a lot of excellent techniques as a foundation for future work. You'll be hooked in no time! 🙂
I've seen lots of how to do brickwork videos in the past but this one is really inspiring, great looking, and feels approachable. Looking forward to giving it a try!
Hello Mandy, this brick wall is really nice ❤🖤🤍! I made many brick walls, but I learned something new: the use of poly filler. Really helpfull. My brick walls are nice, but the next time I use filler too. It is fun to look how you create parts of the world:) Thx for teaching me always something new and inspiring me to make things in another way with more materials and other materials than I used until now. the list of things I want to buy for drawing, painting and making dioramas is longer now. Not as long as a toilet paper roll, but long enough. I hope you had a very nice christmas time! And I hope you will have nice Sylvester hours. May the next year a year with good health for you. And I hope, there are friends next year, who will carry and accompany you through 2024:) Best wishes and good luck your Stubenmuckel P.S.: I am looking forward to see vids from you .
Hello Stubenmuckel! You're going to have a great time using filler on your brick walls, it's like magic when you scrape it off and see the wall come to life. It sounds like you will have a very busy year of building and creating. I hope all is well and that you have a very happy new year! 😃
Bonjour et merci pour ce tuto très inspirant. Je vous souhaite une bonne année 2024 / Hello and thank you for this very inspiring tutorial. I wish you a happy new year 2024
@@dinkydioramas8349 I have been dragging my feet about attempting to practice making a brick wall. This tutorial is so simple and doable, and the outcome is fantastic!!
I have been drawing up plans and troubleshooting ideas for a Japanese villa diorama. The Japanese style of architecture is so beautifully simplistic and has a lot of cubist/ art deco styles incorporated, I'm drowning in ideas! If you have any suggestions, I would love to know your thoughts. 🙂
@@dinkydioramas8349 Sounds like a great idea; zen garden, bento box, bamboo, etc.. If you're looking for suggestions outside the Japanese theme, why not try making something relatively abstract but in a specific style (eg, Tim Burton, Van Gogh, Cubist, Surrealist, etc..) - that level of experimentation lets you experiment & get outside your regular comfort-zone, allowing you to learn entirely new techniques & approaches. Keep up the great work & hope you had a Merry xmas & a wonderful new year
@@earthmanbrick Youve got some wonderful ideas! I would love to become more of an artistic builder, though I am unsure if I would have a viewer base for videos that are less of a diorama tutorial. I am struggling to build the channel and would love to be a bit of a creative show off, but I don't think my viewers would enjoy that very much lol. I hope you have a great new year too and thank you for your excellent suggestions! 🙂

Awesome as always! Looking for something I can build to use this technique because it seems easy to do, but looks very realistic. I started my first diorama because of you, so everything you post has been so helpful and very beginner friendly even when your work looks FAR from beginner. Such awesome results, always! I hope you have a happy new year too!
I'm so happy to know I've inspired you to build, it's a wonderful passion and hobby that enriches our lives in so many ways! Perhaps you could think about creating a brick fireplace for a build, that way you can decide what you would like to do with the fireplace, or even an external brick chimney, or a brick foundation for a building...There are so many options you will be spoiled for choice! Have a wonderful time creating your brickwork. ❤😃
@@dinkydioramas8349 Oh! That's an awesome idea, I'll try that out, even if it never turns into a full build, I could put it on a base and pop in on my bookcase!
@@desiraemonique Plus it's also a good practice g. I always make prototypes and practice pieces before I ever use them in a build, often things turn out in very unexpected ways. This gives you a chance to play with it and perfect it...That will give you the inspiration you need to use it on a build. 😃

Such a simple method that looks completely lifelike, incredible as always
Thank you, Alexander! 🙂
Very nice I'll give this one a go
Good stuff! 😀

I'm so glad you've enjoyed my videos, I love to give people the same feeling I get from discovering wonderful ways to scratch build.
Very interesting
Beautiful as always dear, I love it ❣️
Thank you so much Teresa! 😘

Thank you! This is a really rewarding way to do the bricks, it's very basic, so you're able to relax and enjoy the process. Have fun 😃
Do you ever make stone walls? If so, would you be willing to share a tutorials?
I would be very happy to make a stone wall video for you. 🙂
That wall needs some 80's graffiti!

Please list the supplies used.
Foam core board, light weight filler and paint.
A little tip is to spray the wall with varnish before you add the filler. Helps stop the paint coming off
Which varnish would you recommend?
@@dinkydioramas8349 I use Windsor and newton gloss or satin varnish
