Love it! Can i put in a request for more of your "spiritual" type dioramas, such as the floating island, waterfall and ruined temple please? I've learned so much watching your videos and these are just pure perfection
Hi! Thank you times a million! I'm a diorama builder that lost his mojo with modelling a few years back. During. Christmas I had the flu and found your channel, watched most of your vids and totally reignited my passion! Your approach to models is spot on and your videos are very easy to watch. Genuinely cant wait for the next one!! Would like to get my stuff on a channel one day. Please keep on making videos. 🙏
Thanks I toyed with the classic saucer shape but I have built something like that already. The tictacs fascinate me, but by far the most common sighting over the last few years are glowing orbs. Many of which may even be reverse engineered tech - ie human built. I guess I wanted to explore that route a bit more. I am so far down the ufo/uap rabbit hole and have no intention of climbing out any time soon. 👍👽🖖
Fred, you know how much I love your work and this is to everyone else. This guy is one of the best out there. Just wanted to throw that out there definitely enjoy his videos. His work is impeccable.😺🤟🏿
Very cool (and very topical!) and the end result came out great. Looks like you wanted a very muted colour palette for this one, but a bit of orange or red pigment dust is a way to add vibrancy to an arid scene without it feeling too "alive" - a surprising number of desert plants have bright yellow or red tips too, so a little drybrush on the tufts can give a spot of thematic colour if needed. If you're struggling for fine aggregate, a 25 kilo trade pack of sand from a builders merchant is great value and comes in a bunch of sizes. Depending on how it's been prepped you might need to dry it before using for models though.
Appreciate the tips and advice. I have sand but the super fine soil I was using is much more fine than regular sand. Its crazy how small differences at a miniature scale can make big differences. Either way next time I go to the hardware shop I will pick up some fine sand as a reserve.
Absolutely amazing work! I'm really happy to see what you've done with this! I haven't started working on dioramas, and frankly I'm a bit anxious to start one, but seeing your work helps me get closer to my goals. Thank you!
I know the feeling. It is the same fear that applies to many creative pursuits. The fear of not knowing where to begin. Once you do begin, the fear of messing it up. However, the only way past this mental hurdle is to jump in with both feet. Learning from your mistakes is the best way to learn. That and research to give you a starting point. Also be realistic with your own abilities and try something that isn't too complicated to start with. And finally, feel free to reach out if you need any advice!
It turned out SOOO good! My dad love anything alien and showed him this. He also loved it and ask me to make him one XD lol I'm ok but not that good as you. Hahaha! Great job! Keep up this amazing work! 😁😁🤩
That is awesome! So please when my work reaches multiple generations. I am really into the ufo stuff too. Its fun when I can combine several of my hobbies together. Good luck with your build and always feel free to reach out if you need any tips etc. Thanks for watching
Update on the foam board. As per your suggestion. I went to a hardware store here in the states known as Lowe's. I found the item made by Owen's Corning 1"×2'×2' Project Panel. They called it. It was under $10.00 dollars here. Owen's Corning has the Pink Panther on their shipping boxes. I guess it was a paid mascot? Anyway, it may be a while before I get down to making the terrain for the diorama. My first project will be a Warlord Games/Italeri 1/56 Panzer 3 and Kubelwagen with a few troops. It's not a battle scene. Mind you. But, on the march. A work in progress. Anyway, just wanted to let you know I had success locally. I have used Woodland Scenics products to some measure of success in the past. That product can be found locally at hobby stores, Hobby Lobby, Hobbytown USA, and model train stores. Here in the US. Well, that's all for now. Thank you for your help. Loved the UFO diorama!🙂
Sounds like a very successful trip. I know Lowe's as my Mum lives in the US. Sounds like a great idea and very sensible to start with something achievable whilst still trying new things. I use a lot of woodland scenics products myself. From rock molds to foliage. They make great modelling products! Good luck with your project
Hi, just stumbled across your channel, quick question, did you use to have a woodturning channel? Your voice is so distinctive. Love the use of the orb and the Humvee lucked stunning all black with grey highlights. Thanks for sharing
Hey 👋 yeah I been working on something big behind the scenes - don't want to say too much yet but should have a massive announcement in the new year. But will involve bringing miniature building to the masses.
Firstly, thank you. I use rust and moss by dirty down. I cant rate it enough, my only tip is to mix it well and use in a warm environment or use a hairdryer to activate to reaction. 👍
Hello Mr. Cuts, I was just thinking of you and behold - a Notification of contact made with your ship comes up. You mentioned "... methods to divide space ..." It seems you divided time and space with a wonderful Third Encounter scenario. The video montage at the end is quite evocative of what really happens out there in the desert. Thanks for sharing your passion for the craft. Mikey V.
Hey hey Mikey, the power of thought has great powers. 👍 Been working on a top secret project behind the scenes so had to split my time a bit but should have a a massive announcement in the new year which could see bringing miniature building to the masses. Happy holidays 👍👍
The lighting, the setting, the whole model is just so good🤌
One of the few of my subs where there's little risk to click "Like" before having watched the entire video. Looks great!
I appreciate that! 🙏
Two of my favorite things, UAPs and Dioramas! Nice job, looks great!
Haha me too. Gonna be a crazy time in 2024. 🙏👽
That works. Much more mysterious than the pre-conceived flying saucer look. Love it!
Cheers dude

Ask and you shall receive. I have been planning another jungle style build so I will put that idea to the front of the queue. Thanks for watching
@creativecuts7803 thank you! I shall look forward to it.

Wow, that's amazing 👏 glad you got your spark back - would to see what you build
A great and original idea - love it! The lighting really works well.
Thanks buddy. Glad you enjoyed it
These vids always inspire me to build
That makes me very happy. To share my work and it inspire others to also create is what makes it all worth while
love the composition of this scenario
Thank you 👍
What a cool diorama. Outstanding use of the LEDs both in the HUMVEE and in the UFO
Cheers mate. I'm pretty happy with the result too. 👍
Your creations are amazing, and your voice is very soothing. Thank you for sharing.
My pleasure 🙏 glad you enjoyed the video
That is a great diorama, I love all the tips you give too
Thank you for watching. I try to help where I can
Love, love, love this diorama!!! So realistic!!!!
Beautifully made 😊😊😊
🙏👍🙏👍
Diorama king!
Thank you sir! 👍
Very cool. Wish the UAP was one of the more reported egg shaped, tictac shaped or classic saucer shaped

Finally!!!!!
I know!! So sorry about the wait. Been working on a massive project behind the scenes - big announcements in the new year
@creativecuts7803 awesome! Glad to hear!!

Haha no this is my only channel although I would love to try some wood turning at some point
another great video! i was just thinking yesterday man i wonder whats going on, aint seen a video in awhile

@@creativecuts7803 sounds wonderful. best of luck. everything on here is worth waiting for
love your builds/videos i was wondering what brand is the rust,moss weathering wash - where to get them
Firstly, thank you. I use rust and moss by dirty down. I cant rate it enough, my only tip is to mix it well and use in a warm environment or use a hairdryer to activate to reaction. 👍
@@creativecuts7803 thank you much appreciated 👍
