    I liked that all the kiddos could have a pet! Just all the cats, owls and frogs. But I also thought the thestrals were an inspired creation. 🙂 Thank you for all you share. You are so inspiring. 😊🙏💖

    I find Thestrals fascinating. I would also like to have a Bowtruckle and pet a Mooncalf. And possibly watch an Occamy fly in the sky. And a dragon, any type of dragon. And maybe catch a Nargle, but that might be tricky (:

    Absolutely inspired! That is just such a terrific interpretation of the Forbidden Forest - in a matchbox! You got so much detail with the colours, the sand, the dirt and the moss -spooky. As for Aragog, still scary, even matchbox size - great job Chantal!

  • @sharenwilde24
    @sharenwilde24 4 года назад +3

  • @michaelasteampunk519
    @michaelasteampunk519 4 года назад +1

    All of your dioramas are brilliantly designed and yet you still seem to improve with each one. I love your attention to detail with the soil and tree textures. The cobwebs were genius, you have so much patience! I wish I had found your channel when I was doing a level art since I seem to be learning more techniques from you than with my teacher. Aragog looks so real and the whole diorama is horrifying (in a good spooky way). The thestrals are my favourite, their peaceful behaviour juxtaposed so much with their appearance and reputation for being a bad omen, and the talk Luna had with harry discussing them made it impossible not to love them. Thank you for the video, I can't wait to see what you make next!

  • @zeera4377
    @zeera4377 4 года назад +1

    Absolutely loving this one! It’s a close run between this and the Gryffindor common room as favourites 😆 though in the books, Aragog has milky white eyes because he is so, so old, which I think would have been a nice look for him too. Looking forward to the next one!

  • @valeriekerwin5227

    I know it’s not an exotic choice, but my Aunt made me a little stuffed owl when I was tiny and that worn and loved pillow shared my bed until it literally disintegrated in my early 20’s, I’ve been obsessed with owls for 50 years. I loved Hedwig - a true Hero!

    I had been waiting a long time for this next video,and you did not disappoint! I loved watching you recreate, in miniature, Aragog's lair! It was genius how you made the spiderwebs with hot glue! Wonderful!!! The minute details of the dirt, moss, and sand in the lair are fantastic! Thank you for another magical diorama!
    You asked which creature I liked in the Harry Potter movies. Well, I liked Dobby the house elf, and that wonderful Hippogryph, Buckbeak. These two are my favorites!
    I made my own matchbox diorama of the Restricted Section of Hogwarts' Library. It was fun, and I even made a tiny lantern, and a teeny weeny book! Thank you for inspiring me! Stay safe! ~Janet in Canada

    I’ve always been fond of Thestrals because they are initial creepy, but then when you really think about it there is something so melancholy about them. Imagine not being seen until a person has seen or experienced death...a very sad and heartbreaking experience. Then you’re considered a bad omen.

LOL! ) Chantal, you are SO talented! I really love how you create such amazing pieces of art! Thank you for sharing your wonderful gift with us. Now...as a HUGE fan of Lord of The Rings/Hobbit, will you ever create some wonderful dioramas for them? LOTR/Hobbit crafts are hard to find and tend to be the same small things all the time, like the One Ring, flags of Gondor and Rohan, the Elf Leaf broach, Kili's Rune Stone, etc. Would really love to see some dioramas inspired by Tolkien's work. Thank you! :-)
