  • In this video, we'll craft a Miniature Castle in the Sky Diorama. I used simple techniques to create stone and grass textures. I'll be using this as terrain for D&D.

      Fun story, the pocket sand almost destroyed my camera. After a few weeks of the pocket sand, a few grains were left behind and I was carrying my camera around in the pocket. A grain got into the camera and jammed it a few times, until the issue resolved itself by itself.

    I think this is my favourite project so far 👍🏻 the use of the roots has really brought it to life - maybe some clumps of dirt hanging from some of the roots would add something. Love the visit to the forest - I always end up with pockets of gravel too.

    Thanks @BardsCraft! I implemented this idea but chose to flock the flat top and apply a stone texture to the bottom. The idea is that all of the tiny islands can be flipped upside down and used as small mountains or hills. Amazing inspiration!
